Biggest opportunity: Swap “players” for “baseball”. “players” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “baseball” sits at #16 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

of downloads still active

At least 800 of 16.5K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Analytics plugin keeps 1.2%, across 1,011 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Analytics 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

63/100

Maintenance 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 6+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
  • Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 5.5.24, well behind 7.1.

    I needed some baseball plugin for my league, and only found some soccer ones around. Great plugin for managing your league, easy to use and with lots of features. Well designed in the backend and frontend. A must for all the baseball teams/league site. Thanks to the developers, great job

    First things first. Baseball and Softball coaches use on field scoring apps like GameChanger (widely used) and iScore (not as widely used) and being able to import our stats into this plugin would make it the killer plugin. I’d pay the additional amount no problem. Secondly, there needs to be an easier way to customize your event pages to show box scores for Offense / Defense and Pitching individually. Now for the overwhelming positives: – Ability to add a YouTube playlist of the game to an Event – Easy to import scores and create your own equations for stats – Nice customization options at a FREE level Guys this thing can be really awesome! Seriously, get Gamechanger stat imports and your 99% the way there.
