Biggest opportunity: “logo”, “logo carousel” and “logo carousel slider” 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 6K of 159.7K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Media plugin keeps 0.8%, across 2,317 plugins.

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

    Not happy that it forces links to open in a new window, when this is usually an added piece of functionality. Also instead of placing the navigation arrows in the bottom center (as is standard on pretty much any carousel out there) it places them in the top left/right and forces you to have to buy the PRO version to have this basic functionality. Just a waste of time, look for a better plugin. P.S. It seems to have been abandoned now also??

    Hi, I’ve been using this carousel for 3 years now. Really happy with it. So far there have been 11 logos in the carousel of the free version. I recently added another logo but it was not showing up. I can see the space in the carousel for the new addition but the logo is not showing at all. The text underneath logo is showing. I have checked dimensions of logo image – everything is right. I can send you screenshot if you advise email address. Is there a limit to the number of logos in the free version? Thanks, gmwiki

    Added all my logos, put shortcode on page- no slider. Just shows a title, if you have one. Don’t waste your time.

    I have been using this slider for free since 2016 and have had no problems. On reading the reviews for this plugin I realized many must be fake, trolls, competitors friends or, they are just incompetent. It is very easy to set up (20 seconds) and use. It does not conflict with other plugins that I use, which includes Master Slider. I have never needed support so I cannot comment on that side of things. I love this plugin because it was the only one I could find that would infinitely scroll. ***Remember… If a plugin breaks, it does not mean it is the new plugin you are installing is at fault. It can also mean that the one that breaks may be badly coded.
