of downloads still active
At least 100 of 12.5K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,772 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.
This plugin shipped 2 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.

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.

What to do about it
- Your five tags are all earning their place. Each gets you onto page 1 of its own search, so none is worth giving up. “world of warcraft”, “warcraft” and “spell” (#6, #7 and #10 untagged) would be the next worth testing if a slot frees up.

This plugin is good and it’s simple to add cards on a site. But, when i click on the cards from mobile… In their windows, included with the card image, there is a “More Details” link… I hope that in the future this link will be disappearing… Cause i don’t need to go to another site every time when i see a card. Please… Add the possibility to deselect this “link tag” from Settings.

Invalid headers are usually due to white space found before or after <?php ?>. I have not fully investigated wp_deckbox_mtg.php so I cannot confirm if this is the same location and exact error occurring for everybody but at least for me that was where the error was occurring. What I did was delete very last line in the file which was white-space, once deleted, the invalid header warning disappeared.

It works nicely but I had to tweak it a little to make it https compliant. Would be nice if you could add cards in other languages but it looks like a deckbox limitation.

Just added it to my wordpress. If you receive the error that Websta has with it saying the plugin doesn’t have a valid header, just back out of it and try again, worked for me. The only downside to it using deckbox.org is that they don’t have any of the spoiled cards from a new set up until they’re completely released. Other than that it works great and looks nice.

Would not install. Returned the error, “The plugin does not have a valid header.” Any ideas?
