Biggest opportunity: “admin”, “dimensions” and “images” 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.

How it's measured →2.6%
of downloads still active
At least 100 of 3.8K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Admin & Utilities plugin keeps 0.6%, across 4,194 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Admin & Utilities plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
High removal-risk signals
63/100Maintenance 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 8+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
- Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 4.9.35, well behind 7.1.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| admin your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| dimensions your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| images your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| media your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
0 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days. 4 of its tags aren't in the top 24 for their own search.

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.

A simple plugin to show image dimensions on lib screen. Fits my needs. Congrats to the author.
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ Lee Honeycutt11.3y ago
Works great. As other reviewer mentions, it would be great to sort by size, but not essential.
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ richardwo11.7y ago
Simple and great – just adds a column with image dimensions to Media Library.
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ Ben Huson12.3y ago
I was looking for exactly this functionality and thankfully found this plugin before resorting to write it myself. One further enhancement that would allow me to get it 5 stars would be the possibility to sort the column by size. Maybe take some tips from the Media File Sizes plugin how that could be implemented – I would be happy to help contribute.
