Biggest opportunity: Swap “block” for “beautiful”. “block” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “beautiful” sits at #15 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

How it's measured →3.6%
of downloads still active
At least 3K of 82.6K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Blocks plugin keeps 2.1%, across 1,578 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Blocks 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 15 releases 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.

What to do about it

the gallery works great, looks very aesthetic and is simple to use. the support-team is awesome, fast and friendly. Highly reccomand this plugin.
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ annmin11mo ago
When I realized that this plugin didn’t have the feature I needed to be able to use it on my website, I reached out to customer support and within a few days they’d added the new feature and released an updated version. Amazing! And I’m glad to be able to purchase it as a lifetime license instead of a subscription.

Best plugin out there for lightbox content!
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ lmpierce2.3y ago
The Lightbox Block plugin is great. It has given my site a more modern look and made user access to content easier. The developer/support has been great too! I had some issues and they responded quickly and fixed the issue. Adding a second review to my first – I recently started using the Content gallery option for this plugin. It’s exactly what I was hoping for. I had some questions and their team was quick to reply and provide the help I needed. This topic was modified 5 months, 2 weeks ago by lmpierce.
