Biggest opportunity: “content”, “copyright” and “post” aren't earning a slot. You list them, but you're not in the first 24 results for those searches. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so free the slot for a search you can win.

of downloads still active
At least 200 of 30.7K lifetime downloads are still running, in line with its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,774 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.

How it's tracked →Directory searches this plugin turns up in, and which way each one is moving. WordPress.org publishes no history of search positions, so this starts the day we first tracked a keyword and never backfills.
Not enough tracked days yet to call a direction. Momentum needs at least three keywords measured a week or more apart.
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.
| Keyword | wp.org | On merit | wp.org move, 90 days |
|---|---|---|---|
| content your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| copyright your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| post your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||

After years of having this plugin installed on my website, today I had to uninstall it. After doing the upgrade to the new 1.2.22 version, it crashed the 5.8.1 WP version of my website. I had to use the recovery mode in WP to get my site back. I don’t know why or how it happened, but whatever it is, it broke my site. This is the first time in over 14 years of running WP sites that I have had such a thing happen to a site due to a plugin update. Paint me unimpressed. This topic was modified 4 years, 10 months ago by bassicsax.

This is a very simple plugin, that appends a copyright notice to each blog entry. I don’t even think about it. The copyright is automatically added, depending on my settings.

I tried version 2.1.15. 1) It is not possible totally exclude specific authors. 2) It is not possible to modify the beginning of the inserted text (e.g. word “Copyright” instead of a character “©”, remove the comma before the author’s name or blog’s name). 3) The year is generated only automatically. Not possible specify own (like as “2010 – 2015”).
