Biggest opportunity: Swap “database” and “export” for “mvc” and “exporting”. “database” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “mvc” sits at #8 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “export” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “exporting” sits at #21 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

1.6%

of downloads still active

At least 400 of 25.6K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,766 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.

This plugin shipped 1 release in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

    As advertised, this plugin is great for a non-techy admin to create and edit data, and I recommended the plugin for this purpose. I used phpMyAdmin to setup the table and then used the plugin to create the initial set of records. There are no display facilities with the plugin so I a used a bit of custom code. Only 2 lines are needed to fetch the data into a php function: global $wpdb; $results = $wpdb->get_results( 'SELECT * FROM wp_mytable', ARRAY_N ); The plugin will allow access to only one table at a time, but its easy to switch between tables. Thanks for sharing.
