Biggest opportunity: “background”, “easy background” and “parallax background” 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.

1.2%

of downloads still active

At least 80 of 6.6K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Media plugin keeps 0.8%, across 2,317 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Media 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 8+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 4.9.35, well behind 6.8.

Search visibility

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
jarallax your tag	#5	#4	0
background your tag	Not in the top 24
easy background your tag	Not in the top 24
parallax background your tag	Not in the top 24
video background your tag	Not in the top 24

1 search this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days. 4 of its tags aren't in the top 24 for their own search.

What to do about it

“background”, “easy background” and “parallax background” 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.
