Biggest opportunity: “comments”, “feed” and “rss” 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.

3.0%

of downloads still active

At least 90 of 3K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Content & Feeds plugin keeps 0.8%, across 863 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.

Removal-risk signals

53/100

Maintenance and integrity signals that tend to precede a WordPress.org removal. Not an official status, a heads-up to act.

  • Long abandoned. No update in 5+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
  • Falling behind WordPress. Tested up to WordPress 5.6.23.

Directory rank

Ranked about #16,800 to #17,400, alongside the other plugins at 90+ 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 21 Oct 2026.

Update activity

Downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites.

Not enough installs to measure. This needs at least 100 active sites; below that, a handful of downloads reads as tens of thousands.

Release cadence

No release in a year

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

    Successfully removed the <link…>-tags with the dreaded “feed” extensions from my blog posts. Couldn’t be easier to use. Install, activate, done. Gone are the feeds. It would be cool if it could remove them from everywhere on a WP site, as there still are /feed locators in categories, tags, and pages. But as that wasn’t promised in the description, the plugin deserves the five stars, as it does what is described.
