Biggest opportunity: Add “timeout” and “session” to your wp.org tags. You rank #4 and #21 for them without listing them, close enough for a declared tag to move you up. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so with 4 listed these are the slots worth spending.

How it's measured →7.8%
of downloads still active
At least 400 of 5.1K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Login & Users plugin keeps 0.7%, across 1,477 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Login & Users 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 |

I highly recommend this plugin to anyone looking for Login Timeout Sessions. Thanks to the developers for this great work! 🎉👏
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ Sim Architect2.8y ago
I keep being logged out even though I set it to 60 days for admins (and for everybody choosing “remember me”). WP security auto logoff after x hours feature is turned off. I can’t find another setting that could be in conflict. This plugin, if worked, would have fixed something lacking on WordPress by default.
