Biggest opportunity: One page off on “poll widget”. #12 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.

How it's measured →0.4%
of downloads still active
At least 60 of 14.2K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median Admin & Utilities plugin keeps 0.6%, across 4,190 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Admin & Utilities 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 1 release 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
- One page off on “poll widget”. #12 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.
- “vote” and “voting” 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.

Estimated active installs
The public count shows “60+”. Our estimate pins where the real number sits.
Crossed into this band 49 days ago and a band this size takes about a year or more to cross, so the real count is still just under 70.

It’s not working now, the previous version works OK. It’s not user friendly.
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ Eli8.4y ago
The plugin is an easy to configure simple Poll plugin, we’ve been using it for a while but it was causing too many conflicts with other plugins, upon contacting another plugin developer thinking it was their plugin causing the issue we informed this plugin is the one causing the issue, this plugin should enqueue its scripts and styles out of its scope. the developer should keep its plugin CSS/JS within its plugin scope. Additionally it’s extremely uncomfortable the way you upgrade to new versions after you purchase the Pro, MAKE SURE You keep your e-mail with the download link, there’s no auto update or support area where to download new versions etc.

By creating a new poll it automatically puts 0000 as start and end times unless you specify. But 0 should mean “infinite” not “never” in this case. Once a poll has been created it cannot be stopped, paused, or edited. It can only be deleted. Although it said “Voting is over” the backend still said it’s active and can’t be edited. So many plugins seem to be flawed when the author himself has given it a 5 star review first, and no other reviews. 2 stars (not 1) because it really is easy and simple. Unfortunately I couldn’t use it like I needed. Please add the ability to stop/pause a poll, or remove the edit lock once a poll has been created.
