Biggest opportunity: Swap “301 redirect” and “redirect” for “google adwords” and “id”. “301 redirect” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “google adwords” sits at #6 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “redirect” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “id” sits at #9 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

of downloads still active
At least 100 of 3.4K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,766 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.

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.

What to do about it

Great. I couldn’t find it in the WordPress App store inside my site. I don’t know why. But uploading direct from here is fine!

It does what’s supposed to do, and do it fine. No issues.

This broke my website on WP 6.1, too many redirects error, publisher expects users to be programmers and debug it themselves. Too bad since it would be really nice to have this feature.

Worked out of the box. Resolved an issue where the additional parameters that Facebook adds to your shared URL would redirect our articles to the homepage. Big Thanks!
