Biggest opportunity: “blocks”, “frequently asked questions” and “gutenberg” 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 600 of 10.9K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Blocks plugin keeps 2.1%, across 1,580 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Blocks plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

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 3+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
  • Falling behind WordPress. Tested up to WordPress 6.1.16.

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Спасибо автору за плагин, альтернатив для Gutenberg не нашёл. Плагин работает хорошо, форматировать уже имеющийся текст очень удобно. Автор ответил на мой вопрос на форуме и помог с кастомизаций плагина под сайт.

    Easy to use spoiler plugin (to show or hide content-blocks as an accordion). Simple styled title row with heading, showing or hiding the complete following content-block or only a chunk of text. Looks well in desktop and mobile mode. (For better adaption of different website-designs it would be great if the color of the used borders for title-box and expanded content-box could be easily set via custom CSS code 😉

    The most important feature for me was the box spoiler feature. After testing a little bit I can say that everything works fine! 🙂 Maybe you could implement custom colors into GUI. This topic was modified 6 years, 10 months ago by winkli.

    This is hands down the best spoiler plugin for Gutenberg. It comes with 2 options to choose from: a simple spoiler for text only, and 2-piece spoiler which can be used with any blocks. The way it works is very simple, yet very effective. You just add some Gutenberg blocks between a START SPOILER and END SPOILER blocks, and you get a very good looking dropdown. Very happy with the plugin!
