Biggest opportunity: Swap “cookie”, “cookie banner” and “cookie consent” for “coppa”, “pdpa” and “iab tcf”. “cookie” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “coppa” sits at #4 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “cookie banner” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “pdpa” sits at #5 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “cookie consent” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “iab tcf” sits at #8 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

Install conversion
How it's measured →4.7%
of downloads still active
At least 2K of 42.6K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Privacy & Consent plugin keeps 2.1%, across 502 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Privacy & Consent 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 7 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

It works well and save a lot of my time.
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ Panos Sakalakis2.6y ago
As of this moment, the plugin works like a charm, and it automatically finds and fixes everything cookie-related. It’s also a great solution for fixing AdSense’s new IABF issue, but don’t expect any support from their team. I wanted to buy the premium version both for me and my clients but I never got an email reply or an answer in my support ticket here on WordPress. The plugin has issues when it comes to minifying files for faster speeds, and it will cause broken pages everywhere if you’re using any cache plugins with minification on. There’s been a month btw, and no reply from their team.
