Biggest opportunity: “loading” and “pages” aren't earning a slot. You list them, but you're not in the first 24 results for those searches. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so free the slot for a search you can win.

How it's measured →3.1%
of downloads still active
At least 400 of 13.1K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,778 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Uncategorized plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
This plugin shipped 1 release in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

wp.org is where the directory puts the plugin for that search. On merit is where it would sit if results were ranked on rating, support and updates, without the install boost. The last column is how far the wp.org position moved, from our first reading in the last 90 days to the latest.
| Keyword | wp.org | On merit | wp.org move, 90 days |
|---|---|---|---|
| kartra your tag | #1 | #3 | 0 |
| tools for kartra your tag | #1 | #3 | 0 |
| kcsg your tag | #1 | #1 | 0 |

12 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 3 listed. 9 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words). 2 of its tags aren't in the top 24 for their own search.

Thank you so much for creating this Word Press Plug In! I was trying to integrate a Kartra page inside our company website (built with Word Press) using “Blank Slate” and I was getting the infinite loop error you described. I searched for a solution, the original recommendation for “Blank Slate” was provided by Kartra and lives within their Kartranaut help blog. I wrote up my issue and submitted it to them asking if there was another plug in I could try. Not willing to be patient I continued to search the web and youtube until I found your video. I quickly added your KCSG Kartra Pages WordPress plugin and it instantly worked. I really appreciate the great work you have done and Kartra should be recommending your plug-in and rewriting their blog. I promise to bring it up during the next Kartra webinar. I would have gladly paid for this solution, it is elegant, easy to install, fast and works just as advertised. OH, did I say thank you!

I recently installed this plugin but was having troubles making it work. I posted about it in the Facebook support group and the developer, Brian, got in touch with me and helped me through it. Even contacted my template designer about this issue. We found a way to resolve it. He was knowledgeable, friendly and really helpful. The plugin is fantastic and I highly recommend it.

This plug-in works great and has made life with Kartra much easier. I can build pages more quickly and they actually load faster. This plug-in has been directly responsible for improving my conversions.

If you are using Kartra with your WordPress Site then this plugin is a must. It makes the whole Kartra page integration a breeze. The developer updates the plugin regularly making it better every time. Definitely worth the 5 star rating! Also the Chrome Extension that accompanies this for editing pages in Kartra is something every Kartra user must have! Great work Brian! This topic was modified 6 years, 4 months ago by vincentscully.
