Biggest opportunity: “dynamic”, “image” and “jpg” 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 10 of 9.7K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,770 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.
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 5+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
- Falling behind WordPress. Tested up to WordPress 5.6.23.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| dynamic your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| dynamic images your tag | Not checked yet | ||
| image your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||

Directory rank
Ranked about #30,100 to #45,000, alongside the other plugins at 10+ 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 21 Oct 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

Thank you so much for such a brilliant solution for WordPress Image Sizes! This should be added to the WP-Core in my opinion. No more painful time consuming regenerating image sizes. Yay! I love all the settings as well! It’s so nice to be able to see all of the registered image sizes right there in on place plus the option to Restrict Image Sizes is just wonderful! Oh and on top of that we can even add new image sizes right there on the settings page! Just wow! Thank you so much. GBY. This topic was modified 6 years, 3 months ago by hatisenang.

The idea to only generate thumbnails that are really needed, with the added flexibility of specifying sizes dynamically, is quite obvious and a real miss in wordpress. Sites can get very big when all sorts of plugins add their image sizes to the the website, creating a lot of unused images. This is plugin is very well written and works great! I would recommend it.

Nach umfangreichen Änderungen an meiner Website (mehrmals neues Theme) u.v.a. sind meine BackUp-Dateien grössenmässig aus allen Nähten geplatzt. Alle nicht mehr benötigten Bildgrössen per FTP von Hand zu löschen hat, wie zu erwarten war, schnell zu Fehlern geführt. Auf der Suche nach einer Lösung per Plugin bin ich zu meinem Glück auf ResizeFly von Alexander Goller gestossen. Am 23.01.2018 habe ich einen Fehler gemeldet, schon am nächsten Tag kam das Bugfix zurück. Am 9.2.2018 bemerkte ich einen anderen Fehler und heute morgen (11.2.2018) war er schon beseitigt. Das ist Support der Extraklasse. Mit der Version 2.0.3 bin ich rundum glücklich. Wenn ich jetzt ein BackUp der Medien machen will, lösche ich einfach den Medien-Cache (also alle skalierten Bildgrössen) und hab damit als Downloadvolumen nur die ursprünglich hochgeladenen Dateien und sonst keinerlei Überhang. Die notwendigen umgerechneten Bildgrößen bauen sich ja automatisch wieder auf, sobald sie im Browser angezeigt werden sollen. Vielen Dank Alex
