Biggest opportunity: “feed” isn't earning a slot. You list it, but you're not in the first 24 results for that search. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so free the slot for a search you can win.

How it's measured →2.0%
of downloads still active
At least 400 of 20.3K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Content & Feeds plugin keeps 0.8%, across 866 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Content & Feeds 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 4 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.

Плагин очень простой в настройке и в тоже время всё необходимое в нём есть. У меня индивидуальный шаблон, и в ленте возникли ошибки – пришлось обратиться к автору. И он очень быстро их нашёл, устранил, затем проверил ленту на валидность. Приятно удивлена такой быстрой и профессиональной поддержкой.
