Biggest opportunity: Swap “user generated content” and “webcam” for “recorder” and “pipe”. “user generated content” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “recorder” sits at #10 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “webcam” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “pipe” sits at #16 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

Install conversion
How it's measured →0.7%
of downloads still active
At least 10 of 1.3K lifetime downloads are still running, in line with its category: the median Login & Users plugin keeps 0.7%, across 1,478 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Login & Users plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
