Biggest opportunity: Swap “accessibility” and “ada” for “dyslexia” and “eaa”. “accessibility” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “dyslexia” sits at #9 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “ada” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “eaa” sits at #21 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

How it's measured →8.6%
of downloads still active
At least 300 of 3.5K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Admin & Utilities plugin keeps 0.6%, across 4,189 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Admin & Utilities 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 4 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.

All reviews on wp.org ↗- ★★★★★ pezflash12mo ago
I have tried it, as the tools are perfect for my client needs.Unfortunately, the way its coded (using #shadow-root (open) to insert in DOM) makes it impossible to customize ANY of the elements with css or js even. And the built-in options are pretty simple, so far not enough to integrate it somehow with the styles of any web.Sorry for the rating, but yup, you made a quite risky decision building it this way.

I’ve tested a lot of WordPress plugins over the years, but this plugin absolutely stands out. It’s not just a small helper – it’s an incredibly well-made, powerful plugin that brings real accessibility improvements to any site. Setup was effortless, and everything worked flawlessly from the start. The configuration options are smart, flexible, and designed with real-world use in mind. You can tell this was built by someone who truly understands both accessibility and user experience. And honestly, the developer support is outstanding. Communication was fast, friendly, and super helpful. I had a few customization requests — they responded immediately and implemented the changes within no time. That level of commitment is rare and deserves real credit. If you care about accessibility and want a top-tier solution with excellent support, this plugin is an easy recommendation. Absolutely first-class work.
