Biggest opportunity: Swap “currency” for “russian”. “currency” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “russian” sits at #8 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 300 of 12.5K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,765 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.

Update activity

Crossed into this band 46 days ago and a band this size takes about a year or more to cross, so the real count is still just under 400.

    Замечательно, просто прикручиваешь как виджет и получаешь курсы валют в любом месте на сайте. Без лишних заморочек.

    Плагин хороший и нужный. Замечание: выражение «биржевой» курс не совсем корректное; и надо было указать источник, что данные берутся с обменника finance.yahoo.com. Желательно было бы прикрутить данные с ММВБ. У себя немного подправил, чтобы выводилось одной строкой (пример на krizis-kopilka.ru).

    Еще было бы отлично, если заголовок виджета можно было оставлять пустым.
