Biggest opportunity: “myaccount woocommerce”, “private content” and “private file” 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.

How it's measured →1.9%
of downloads still active
At least 60 of 3.2K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median eCommerce plugin keeps 1.4%, across 5,159 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other eCommerce plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
Removal-risk signals
53/100Maintenance 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 4+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
- Falling behind WordPress. Tested up to WordPress 5.9.20.

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.
| Keyword | wp.org | On merit | wp.org move, 90 days |
|---|---|---|---|
| myaccount woocommerce your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| private content your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| private file your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| woocommerce your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
4 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 0 listed. 4 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words). 4 of its tags aren't in the top 24 for their own search.

Directory rank
Ranked about #19,000 to #20,000, alongside the other plugins at 60+ installs. Plugins with the same install count swap places between wp.org requests, so this is where most of them sit. Checked monthly, last on 1 Nov 2026.
Update activity
Downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites.
Not enough installs to measure. This needs at least 100 active sites; below that, a handful of downloads reads as tens of thousands.
Release cadence
No release in a yearHow often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Ero alla ricerca di una soluzione per creare una mini area privata che si integrasse con Woocommerce direttamente nell’account utente. Questo plugin ha soddisfatto le mie esigenze, ovvero permettere la creazione di pagine e file privati visibili al singolo utente, usufruibile dal menù dell’account utente di Woo. Facile da impostare, facile da usare, adatto a chi vuole una “mini area riservata” in Woocommerce senza troppe complicazioni

Gracias por crear esta intranet, creo que le falta popularidad porque funciona muy bien, gracias al desarrollador, nos facilita la vida.

ES: exelente! felicitaciones! una herramienta que se adapto muy bien a mis necesidades! muy poderosa. me gustaria dar una seguerencia: la opcion de agregar mas botones, con las mismas funciones Private page o Private File, solo que cambiando los nombres. tambien me gustaria dar el consejo de que cada boton tenga su short code. actualmente yo encontre el short buscando en el codigo de programacion, pero seria bueno que el mismo plugin lo exciba para que asi sea mas facil crear botenes. en resumen la opcion para crear mas botones y los short code!. EN: excellent! Congratulations! a tool that adapted very well to my needs! very powerful. I would like to give a seguerencia: the option to add more buttons, with the same Private page or Private File functions, only changing the names. I would also like to give the advice that each button has its short code. currently I found the short looking in the programming code, but it would be good if the plugin itself excites it so that it is easier to create cans. in short the option to create more buttons and short codes!`
