of downloads still active

At least 4K of 73.1K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Content & Feeds plugin keeps 0.8%, across 866 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Content & Feeds plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

    Плагин перестал работать, стал косячить – отдаёт заголовок статей правильный, а содержание меняет у предыдущей статьи на последнюю. Автор шифруется, на сообщения не отвечает. Очень плохо. This topic was modified 3 years, 4 months ago by ermakover.

    По началу плагин работал, но потом перестал. Тех.поддержка дзена сказала что в ленте много лишнего и много не поддерживаемых аргументов. Поэтому плагин не работает.
