Biggest opportunity: “posts”, “template” and “timeline layout” 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 50 of 7.4K lifetime downloads are still running, in line with its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,774 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Uncategorized plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| typograph | #1 | #7 | 0 |
| posts your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| template your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| timeline layout your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
4 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 1 listed. 3 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words). 3 of its tags aren't in the top 24 for their own search.
What to do about it
- “posts”, “template” and “timeline layout” 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.
- Already on top for “typograph”. #1 without listing it. A tag would change little there; your slots are better spent on a search you don't yet win.

Estimated active installs

Do not buy this plugin if you want to show your custom posts in a timeline. The functionality to show custom posts is very basic, and does not allow you to show your custom fields, nor does it allow you to sort on any of the custom fields. As an example of how not to do business, and not to offer good customer service, this company does not give refunds.
