Biggest opportunity: Swap “elementor”, “wordpress blocks” and “ux builder” for “before”, “after” and “after image”. “elementor” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “before” sits at #5 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “wordpress blocks” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “after” sits at #9 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “ux builder” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #18. “after image” sits at #15 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

4.5%

of downloads still active

At least 20K of 447.4K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Page Builders plugin keeps 2.4%, across 1,263 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Page Builders 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 3 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.

    恐らく、このプラグインはブロックエディターに対応していないので、Gutenbergでは画像が挿入できないです。 あと、lazyload.jsや”loading=lazy”を使用すると、表示されなくなったり画像下に空白ができてしまったりするバグがあるため、画像表示が崩れます。

    Wonderful functionality for a photographer or photo re-toucher / editor. Easy to install and implement, may be caused by another plugin conflict it recently had stopped working. The support was very prompt, the developer was able to solve the issue right away!

    This plugin does exactly what it says on the tin and works straight out-of-the-box. Excellent stuff! Oh, and it also works perfectly on WP 5.7.2 – at least with my current selection of themes.
