Biggest opportunity: Swap “css” for “scripts”. “css” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “scripts” sits at #16 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

of downloads still active

At least 3K of 36.2K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,773 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.

    Плагин прост, безотказен, не нарушает работы системы сайта, ни с чем не конфликтует. Недостатков не замечено ни одного, хотя пользуюсь уже более четырёх лет… Прекрасный программный продукт. Конфликтов не наблюдается даже при параллельном использовании других инструментов встраивания кода. Спасибо разработчикам!!!
