Biggest opportunity: “authoring”, “authoring tool” and “e learning” 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 10 of 18.6K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median Education plugin keeps 1.1%, across 177 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Education 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 10+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
  • Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 4.4.34, well behind 6.8.

Directory rank

Ranked about #30,400 to #44,800, alongside the other plugins at 10+ installs. Plugins with the same install count swap places between wp.org requests, so this is where most of them sit. Checked monthly, last on 1 Nov 2026.

Update activity

Downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites.

Not enough installs to measure. This needs at least 100 active sites; below that, a handful of downloads reads as tens of thousands.

    After an plugin delete, StudyPress leaves 14 database artifacts which you will have to manually try to remove. The error message is: Cannot delete or update a parent row: a foreign key constraint fails by “Plugins Garbage Collector.” These coders need to do their homework by first not degrading the environment. wireB This topic was modified 8 years, 11 months ago by wireB.

    Has the potential to be a great plugin but…I want to create e-courses from powerpoints. So I created a course, added lessons and added the ppt to the lesson and published. Added the shortcode and viewed the course. Looks good, but only gives the option to download the ppt – why would i want to share the content? I want users to only be able to view the slides. On another note, the author’s site is dead and there haven’t been any updates for over a year, so I wonder if there is any support?

    The plugin has some conflict with wordpress because it is not recognizing very well the administrator user. For one time it appeared in my Admin Menu and I could have limited access to create Class title, but not as a admin user. So, I could do nothing. I couldn’t edit courses. I deleted the plugin and installed it again. Now it does not appear on my admin menu. I took 3 o 4 hours to see what was wrong. I deactivated many of my plugins, but it didn’t solve the problem. I liked the concept of this plugin, but it is not working.

    Simple to set up, you can have it up and running in minutes. No frills but it can have all you need to present courses and lessons.

    I have used all most all LMS type plugins on the wordpress. This plugin gave me what i want. Thanks to the authors. But only one thing bother me, i.e… the slider used for the plugin. Please remove the slider and think for the alternative for showing up the Steps and lessons. More over its not all responsive slider. so we are not able to use it in the site. Please take my point for the next release..
