Biggest opportunity: “menu”, “mobile” and “navigation” 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 100 of 9.2K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Admin & Utilities plugin keeps 0.6%, across 4,193 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.
High removal-risk signals
63/100Maintenance 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 12+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
- Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 4.0.38, well behind 6.8.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| tinynav your tag | #1 | #1 | 0 |
| menu your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| mobile your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| navigation 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.

All reviews on wp.org ↗- ★★★★★ adexios13.5y ago
And did I mention, dead simple to use? Nice work! I highly recommend it. Could use two things: 1. The ability to enter in a custom width in a text box where the menu changes from the full menu style to the TinyNav dropdown. 2. Have the option to include menu levels in the display (for example, put a dash in front of child menu options). Notes: Both of these are pretty easy fixes. I changed the width by editing the code of the plugin to have my custom width for the menu navigation, which wasn’t too hard, and I fixed the second one by downloading the latest version of tinynav.min.js and updating the link in the code as well. Now, my child menu options have a ‘-‘ in front of them.
