Biggest opportunity: Swap “accessibility” and “navigation” for “bottom menu” and “sliding menu”. “accessibility” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “bottom menu” sits at #4 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “navigation” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “sliding menu” sits at #4 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 70K of 4.6M lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Admin & Utilities plugin keeps 0.6%, across 4,193 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Admin & Utilities plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
This plugin shipped 5 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

What to do about it
- Swap “accessibility” and “navigation” for “bottom menu” and “sliding menu”. “accessibility” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “bottom menu” sits at #4 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “navigation” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “sliding menu” sits at #4 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

This is an excellent WordPress plugin for creating responsive, mobile-friendly menus. What I appreciate most is the impressive number of settings and design options, even in the free version. That feels very generous and makes the plugin useful for a wide range of websites without forcing users to upgrade immediately.The results look attractive and professional, and the customization options make it easy to adapt the menu to different layouts and design styles. A special highlight is the live preview feature: every small change can be checked immediately, which saves a lot of time and makes the setup process much more comfortable.It is also great to see that the plugin is actively maintained. That gives confidence that it will continue to work well with future WordPress versions.Thank you to the developer for this great plugin. I wish you much success!

Good plugin to setup a quick mobile menu. The default templates are a valid option.

Ich nutze das Responsive Menu Plugin für meine Praxiswebsite und bin wirklich beeindruckt, wie flexibel und zuverlässig es arbeitet. Besonders positiv finde ich, dass sich das Menü sehr präzise an das eigene Design anpassen lässt – Farben, Titel, Icons, Abstände, alles ist sauber steuerbar. Auch komplexere Anpassungen, wie individuelle CSS‑Erweiterungen oder das Einbinden eigener Logos, funktionieren problemlos und ohne Einschränkungen. Das Plugin reagiert stabil, lädt schnell und sorgt für ein professionelles, modernes Nutzererlebnis auf allen Geräten. Für alle, die ein mobilfreundliches, anpassbares und technisch sauberes Menü suchen, ist dieses Plugin absolut empfehlenswert. Vielen Dank an das Entwicklerteam für die großartige Arbeit!
