Biggest opportunity: “customer reviews”, “product reviews” and “testimonial slider” 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 400 of 8.1K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Media plugin keeps 0.8%, across 2,323 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Media 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.

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.

Its not responsive, its this Plugin from 1990? Check the CSS Console, full with Error, because there is empty CSS Rules. Why? Just why? I checked after this the Files. Jquery is deprecated. Its not “.click”… its “on .click” Terrible Quality in PHP, CSS and JS – im sure there are much Security Problem, but i will check later. 1000% There are XSS ways because this bad quality. Im wondering, this Plugin can be here, WordPress should remove it. And i more wondering, this Plugin have Pro Version for real Money? Really?
