Biggest opportunity: Swap “cookie banner”, “cookie consent” and “gdpr” for “eu cookie directive”, “eu privacy directive” and “eu law”. “cookie banner” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “eu cookie directive” sits at #11 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. “eu privacy directive” sits at #13 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “gdpr” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “eu law” sits at #15 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 →5.8%
of downloads still active
At least 100 of 1.7K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Privacy & Consent plugin keeps 2.1%, across 501 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 13 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 “cookie banner”, “cookie consent” and “gdpr” for “eu cookie directive”, “eu privacy directive” and “eu law”. “cookie banner” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “eu cookie directive” sits at #11 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. “eu privacy directive” sits at #13 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “gdpr” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “eu law” sits at #15 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

Directory rank
Ranked about #13,300 to #16,400, alongside the other plugins at 100+ 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 21 Oct 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
Actively maintainedHow often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Estimated active installs
The public count shows “100+”. Our estimate pins where the real number sits.
Crossed into this band 40 days ago and a band this size takes about a year or more to cross, so the real count is still just over 100.
At the current install trend, crossing 200+ in roughly 158 days.

Nice lightweight cookie wordpress plugin.
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ Miroslav Bartik5mo ago
This plugin is great even for government website, which need to keep everything on-premises and have verifiable consent. Which is great… Plus, the folks at Web Pixel Studio are a huge help with deploying and improving the plugin. A big thank you…
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ zazezi6mo ago
The plugin is excellent, it meets all legal obligations, the appearance is easy to set, you can add cookies that you have on the website. It has pre-selected cookies that will be added automatically after selection, you can add others as needed. Fantastic plugin for meeting EU requirements and free. I also appreciate the google consent mode v2 with templates for GTM.
