Biggest opportunity: “attachments”, “entry” and “images” 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.

of downloads still active
At least 100 of 12.8K lifetime downloads are still running, in line with 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 9+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
- Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 4.7.39, well behind 6.8.

How it's tracked →Directory searches this plugin turns up in, and which way each one is moving. WordPress.org publishes no history of search positions, so this starts the day we first tracked a keyword and never backfills.
Not enough tracked days yet to call a direction. Momentum needs at least three keywords measured a week or more apart.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| attachments your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| entry your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| images your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| reorder your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| sort your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
1 search this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 0 listed. 1 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words). 5 of its tags aren't in the top 24 for their own search.

Update activity
How busy the existing users are, measured as downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites. A spike means a new release everyone's pulling; a long, slow decline means an aging user base that updates less.
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.

really handy plugin. I wish image thumbnails could be bigger though

I have a nice simple gallery for my posts and just needed to order the images. I was trying so hard not to have to install a full Gallery plugin for this. Thanks so much!

I had some trouble using it at first, but the developer was extremely helpful and worked everything out for me. This speeds up reordering images so much – highly recommended!

Thank you very much for a very nice plugin. I rated 4 instead of 5 stars because of the missing png support. I added it myself by changing line 312 of class-reorder-entry-images.php from 'post_mime_type' => 'image/jpeg', to 'post_mime_type' => array('image/jpeg','image/png'),

This has made things so much easier. It is so frustrating when you don’t have the control. This plugin gives you that control, it is awesome
