Biggest opportunity: Swap “accordion” and “ai” for “ollama” and “faqs”. “accordion” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “ollama” sits at #23 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “ai” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “faqs” sits at #24 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 →3.1%
of downloads still active
At least 600 of 19.5K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median AI plugin keeps 1.4%, across 1,009 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other AI 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 8 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.

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.

What to do about it
- Swap “accordion” and “ai” for “ollama” and “faqs”. “accordion” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “ollama” sits at #23 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “ai” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “faqs” sits at #24 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.
- One page off on “faq”. #16 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.
- One page off on “knowledgebase”. #11 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.

Simple to install, very easy to use and website visitors love it. Never needed support.

Since I was having trouble upgrading from 1.6 to 1.70, the support staff was incredibly responsive. We ultimately discovered it was a problem with the supercache. The team is very open to feedback and easy to communicate with. We hope you’ll continue to support it and help it grow. Thank you!

I must say, this is an outstanding plugin—easy to use with great features! However, it is essential to add Google’s structured data for FAQ so that Google can recognize the questions and answers properly. I also hope that updates and support for this fantastic plugin will continue.

It’s easy to use and provides a search function and categorized faqs. It’s a perfect FAQ plugin.

Good plugin and we migrated from HelpieFAQ plugin. Only one drawback, we can’t apply perticular faq or faq group globally to all woocommerce pages. This topic was modified 4 years, 4 months ago by Vivek Narayanankutty Nair.

The plugin performs its task, the whole functionality works as stated, thanks to the author for the creation and development of the plug-in. However, there are several nuances, I write about them in the Support section. Thank you. This topic was modified 5 years, 2 months ago by artyus.

This plugin really doesn’t promise too much, I am so enthusiastic that I have to write a review immediately. The adjustments via CSS are really easy and I miss nothing. Fast response, lean code, simple handling, live search, responsiveness, toggle and accordion plus WooCommerce support and then for free. Wow, where else can you get something like that? This coder has really managed to deliver clean code and native WordPress implementation. Also very rare now. I’ve been searching and trying FAQ plugins for years, but I was never happy with it – now I finally found it 🙂 Chapeau – Excellent! Great Job! A Masterpiece of Software.

Fantastic plugin, with many options available to configure your FAQ’s. The key option for me is the seamless integration with WooCommerce, where the product specific FAQ’s can be shown to customers and why I use this plugin in preference to the inbuilt FAQ’s available in my Template design. Really good support and cannot recommend this plugin enough. Just excellent!
