How it's measured →2.6%
of downloads still active
At least 600 of 22.8K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Booking & Events plugin keeps 0.8%, across 947 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Booking & Events 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 26 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.

Reviewer account pattern
from wp.org reviewer profiles12 of the last 13 four- and five-star reviews came from accounts created within a month of posting the review, and 9 of those landed between 2025-01-08 and 2025-01-31.
