Biggest opportunity: “chart”, “forms” and “graph” 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 100 of 16.3K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median Forms plugin keeps 1.2%, across 1,671 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Forms plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
Removal-risk signals

- Long abandoned. No update in 5+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
- Falling behind WordPress. Tested up to WordPress 5.8.19.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| chartsjs your tag | #1 | #1 | 0 |
| maxicharts | #2 | #2 | 0 |
| chart your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| forms your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| graph your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| gravity your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
3 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 2 listed. 1 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words). 4 of its tags aren't in the top 24 for their own search.

Directory rank
Ranked about #13,300 to #16,400, alongside the other plugins at 100+ installs. Plugins with the same install count swap places between wp.org requests, so this is where most of them sit. Checked monthly, last on 1 Nov 2026.
Update activity
How busy the existing users are, measured as downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites. A spike means a new release everyone's pulling; a long, slow decline means an aging user base that updates less.
Release cadence
No release in a yearHow often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Great support, and a powerful plugin for many charting use cases. Combining with Gravity Forms opens up a tonne of opportunities.

Thanks for the great plugin. I really appreciate quick support provided by the author. Wish you all the best!

The plugin is easy to use with the shortcodes and it offers all types of configurations. It really helps to visualize the data you collected from Gravity form. I had an issue with a multiselect field that wouldn’t display, but the Maxicharts support fixed the problem very quickly and made an update. Totally worth it.
