Biggest opportunity: “registration form” and “simple registration form” 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 100 of 17.2K lifetime downloads are still running, in line with its category: the median Login & Users plugin keeps 0.7%, across 1,478 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Login & Users plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
Removal-risk signals
53/100Maintenance 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 4+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
- Falling behind WordPress. Tested up to WordPress 6.0.18.

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 |

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

keep it simple

I feel like a fool asking this question. I verified the plugin is installed and activated on my “Installed Plugins. I can’t find it in my dashboard. Can someone help me?

It is nice, but there should at least be a way to redirect to a thank you page. This is too simple for my needs.

This sort of works, but it hijacks some URLs. I tried to create a “signup” page with an appropriate slug/permalink: http://www.example.com/signup and it absolutely didn’t work, and redirected back to homepage. Same with “register.” There is no reason for this, and no options. Look instead at “WP User Manager” and “Clean Login” for much better plugins.

Thank you 🙂

Exactly what I needed, just a simple registration form. It allows me to edit it in any way using HTML in the only one plugin file. Which is good as well.
