Biggest opportunity: “import” and “xml” 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 200 of 22.6K lifetime downloads are still running, in line with its category: the median Content & Feeds plugin keeps 0.8%, across 864 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Content & Feeds 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 3 releases 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.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| slickplan your tag | #1 | #1 | — |
| xml importer | #17 | #19 | down 1 |
| import your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| xml your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
9 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 2 listed. 7 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words). 2 of its tags aren't in the top 24 for their own search.

Pulled in all the pages with their parent relations set, very nice indeed! Thanks for making this plugin

I would like to request a feature: Selecting the (custom) post type to import to (drop down). Beats having to manually change the plugin 🙂

If you use Slickplan to create sitemaps, this is a must use plugin. I’ve dealth with a lot of websites that had 50+ pages in the sitemap. Instead of having to manually create each page in WordPress, the Slickplan Importer gets them all in there instantly. It would be great if future versions allowed you set the page order number prior to import but otherwise great plugin.
