Biggest opportunity: “chat plugin”, “live chat” and “live help” 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.

of downloads still active

At least 100 of 7.2K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Chat & Support plugin keeps 0.8%, across 630 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Chat & Support plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

Removal-risk signals

53/100

Maintenance and integrity signals that tend to precede a WordPress.org removal. Not an official status, a heads-up to act.

  • Long abandoned. No update in 5+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
  • Falling behind WordPress. Tested up to WordPress 5.7.21.

Update activity

How busy the existing users are, measured as downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites. A spike means a new release everyone's pulling; a long, slow decline means an aging user base that updates less.

    It was an excellent idea but not even the official developer improved the plugin and this one was abandoned as well. A good dead idea.

    Installed this because it DID prove to be a bit faster than the OEM plugin. Then WP had updates and it seems that this has fallen out of sync. WP is now up to v 5.9.x and the last tested version for this plug was 5.6.2 although it suggests its compatible up to v5.7.5. Arguably, it seemed to work even at WP v 5.8.1, but shortly after that around WP v5.8.3 the wheels fell off. At checkout, users started experiencing an apparent conflict w/ the auth.net woo payment gateway plugin and caused a particularly nasty dialog screen to appear making users skittish about completing the order. Unfortunately, the problem was intermittent and threw no PHP errors. And it was made harder to isolate as there were actually two plugins causing similar fails post november 2021 updates to WP. We eliminated the other plugin, but took us a while longer to isolate this issue. If you’re using auth.net as a gateway, you might want to avoid until it gets updated. As I said, worked, until it didn’t. If you’re not using woo/auth.net you might be ok.

    This plugin is much better than the official one. Ultra lightweight so doesn’t cause performance issues.

    On desktop i did not really have a problem with the official tidio plugin. In mobile it was slowing down my page by 250-400ms though. This plugin seems to fix this and as a bonus pagespeed went from 50 to 65 on mobile

    It works as described. If only I can reposition the chat icon that would be great.
