Biggest opportunity: “reusable content blocks”, “reusable content widget” and “wpbakery global widget” 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 4K of 29.5K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Blocks plugin keeps 2.1%, across 1,580 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Blocks 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 3+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
- Falling behind WordPress. Tested up to WordPress 6.1.16.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| thecodepoetry your tag | #1 | #1 | 0 |
| reusable content blocks your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| reusable content widget your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| wpbakery global widget your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
4 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 1 listed. 3 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words). 3 of its tags aren't in the top 24 for their own search.

Seems to work well, you get a “This plugin does not have correct headers” warning when you first turn it on, but it works well for what it does.

I really encourage this extension, it was a relief to discover it, I have been using it for 2 years now, I have installed it on more than 30 sites. It allows me to create all my footers with the WpBakery plugin in one place. And for other reusable elements. It’s really cool, thanks a lot !

Si vous avez besoin d’afficher un bandeau dans un footer ou un élément sur toutes vos pages, ce plugin est top ! 1/Créez une page, 2/ Un tag est généré, 3/ Coller le tag où vous voulez, sur autant de pages que vous souhaitez 4/ Retrouvez votre page sous forme de bannière ou footer… 5/ Modifier la page et votre bannière sera modifiée partout où votre shortcode est affiché. Le plus de ce plugin, c’est que l’on peut utiliser Visual Composer. Avant j’utilisais Templatera qui est payant, lourd et pas très performant… en fait, je ne l’utilise plus. Merci pour ce plugin qui méritent bien ses 5 étoiles ! ********** If you need to display a banner in a footer or an element on all your pages, this plugin is great! 1 / Create a page, 2 / A tag is generated, 3 / Paste the tag where you want, on as many pages as you want 4 / Find your page in the form of a banner or footer … 5 / Modify the page and your banner will be modified wherever your shortcode is displayed. The plus of this plugin is that you can use Visual Composer. Before I used Templatera which is paid, heavy and not very efficient … in fact, I no longer use it. Thank you for this plugin which deserves its 5 stars!

Awesome Plugin!

The plugin is lightweight and works well on single-language installations. However, with WPML you cannot translate a block as the translated block has a different ID than the original.
