Biggest opportunity: Swap “automatic translation” and “translate” for “deepl” and “openrouter”. “automatic translation” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “deepl” sits at #6 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “translate” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “openrouter” sits at #13 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 →2.9%
of downloads still active
At least 300 of 10.4K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Multilingual plugin keeps 0.8%, across 280 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Multilingual plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
This plugin shipped 23 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

Hi Thanks for your great work Suggestion : Instead of showing additionnal flags on every line on the pages & posts list in backend, it would be much better to show a grey + below the blue + of polylang Here is the CSS for those who want to test, much better UI in pages & posts list /* Polytranslate : replace additionnal flags with a grey plus */.ptai-ai-translate-link img {display: none;} .ptai-ai-translate-link::before {content: “\f132”; font-family: dashicons; display: inline-block; width: 16px; height: 16px; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1; text-align: center; vertical-align: middle; color: #a7aaad; text-decoration: none;} .ptai-ai-translate-link:hover::before {color: #50575e; }
