Biggest opportunity: “footer”, “header” and “javascript” 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 20K of 386.4K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Email & Marketing plugin keeps 0.9%, across 1,295 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Email & Marketing 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 6+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
  • Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 5.3.23, well behind 7.1.

    This plugin is no longer usable, it injects a popup with ads to your website when a user clicks on something. God knows what other malicious codes is hidden inside.

    This worked for me for a while, but the popup panel on each page would sit over things at the bottom of my pages, even preventing me from editing some blocks, which was irritating. A colleague told me he was seeing ads all over the page; I said that was impossible, it’s an internal site, there should be no ads. Turns out it was this plugin, and I just had AdBlocker preventing me from seeing them! Bleh. Then I found out the Gutenberg HTML block can host script tags, so I just threw my page-specific JavaScript in there and boom, no more need of a plugin!

    This plugin will show 3 lines of ads for doing 3 lines of code! There is another plugin, “Header and Footer Scripts” which will do the same thing for FREE and with no ADS.
