Biggest opportunity: Swap “bundle” for “porfolio”. “bundle” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “porfolio” sits at #6 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

How it's measured →2.5%
of downloads still active
At least 700 of 27.9K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,764 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
63/100Maintenance 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 7+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
- Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 5.0.31, well behind 6.8.

wp.org is where the directory puts the plugin for that search. On merit is where it would sit if results were ranked on rating, support and updates, without the install boost. The last column is how far the wp.org position moved, from our first reading in the last 90 days to the latest.

While using the Akita theme from ThemeBlvd, the Portfolios add on allows me to mix all of my blogs into a single instance while still treating them as separate. There are more ways to do that but the Portfolios allow me to do so much more on cross referencing, re-use and unified look-and-feel, that it is the best option for me. Wherever the Portfolios and my specific usage caused some limitation in 3rd party plugins, these were all solved with plugin updates or small tweaks on my side.
