Biggest opportunity: One page off on “weaver plugins”. #13 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.
Install conversion
How it's measured →3.9%
of downloads still active
At least 300 of 7.6K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,786 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Uncategorized 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 8+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
- Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 4.9.35, well behind 7.1.

Directory rank
Ranked about #10,100 to #11,100, alongside the other plugins at 300+ installs. Plugins with the same install count swap places between wp.org requests, so this is where most of them sit. Checked monthly, last on 1 Nov 2026.
Update activity
How busy the existing users are, measured as downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites. A spike means a new release everyone's pulling; a long, slow decline means an aging user base that updates less.
Release cadence
No release in a yearHow often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Nothing to add to the previous reviews 🙂 Awesome work again from the guys behind Weaver themes! Thanks!

Like the previous reviewers I was dreading the conversion from Weaver II Pro to Xtreme, but this plugin did most of the work ,and was clear about the additional manual tasks that were required. I performed the complete conversion of my medium sized site, around 200 posts/pages, in less than an hour. I would recommend reading all the help pages first and if I was doing this again I would have printed them to use as a checklist, as some jumping around through the pages was needed. I didn’t try going back and activating the old Weaver II Pro theme … no need.

When rebuilding an older Weaver II Pro site with Weaver Xtreme this is an time saver and an easy to use plugin to convert a lot of things and have a good starting point to finalize the new site! Thanks!
