Biggest opportunity: Swap “fix google webmaster tools errors” for “hatom”. “fix google webmaster tools errors” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “hatom” sits at #4 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 800 of 25.1K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,769 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.

High removal-risk signals

63/100

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 10+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
  • Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 4.4.34, well behind 6.8.

    Was skeptical because the plugin was not updated for a while but it still works. The author should update the plugin to remove this warning. Thanks!
