of downloads still active
At least 1K of 19.9K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,772 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.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| safety exit your tag | #1 | #3 | 0 |
| fast exit your tag | #1 | #3 | 0 |
| panic button your tag | #1 | #4 | up 1 |
| domestic violence | #1 | #1 | 0 |
| safety | #2 | #11 | 0 |
| quick exit your tag | #3 | #11 | 0 |

9 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 8 listed. 1 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words).
What to do about it
- Already on top for “domestic violence” and “safety”. #1 and #2 without listing them. A tag would change little there; your slots are better spent on a search you don't yet win.

Update activity
How busy the existing users are, measured as downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites. A spike means a new release everyone's pulling; a long, slow decline means an aging user base that updates less.
Release cadence
No release in a yearHow often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Thanks for doing this! We are using this on a website with sensitive subjects exactly as you describe. Works great with ELementor.

Not sure why there aren’t more quality reviews…yea, maybe a small demographic, but this plugin was EXACTLY what we needed for a domestic abuse intervention website we created. Thanks again for a great product!

Perfect plugin! Complies with what is promised in a good way and is very easy to customize. I have not found another plugin that offers the same features. Very practical to redirect the user to other pages with a custom URL through a button. —- El plugin perfecto! Cumple con lo prometido de buena manera y es muy fácil de personalizar. No he encontrado otro plugin que ofrezca las mismas características. Muy práctico para redirigir al usuario a otras páginas con un URL personalizado mediante un botón. Como feedback constructivo: igual cambiar el titulo a “Panic Button” que es como habitualmente se conoce el concepto para recibir más búsquedas. Y que incorpore la función de centrar el botón a parte de derecha y izquierda, aunque entiendo que eso puede entrar en temas de responsividad y ser más difícil.
