Biggest opportunity: “blocks”, “bootstrap” and “breakpoints” 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 300 of 13.9K lifetime downloads are still running, in line with its category: the median Blocks plugin keeps 2.1%, across 1,582 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Blocks 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| bootstrap columns | #24 | #23 | 0 |
| blocks your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| bootstrap your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| breakpoints your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| container your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||

What is it? You can add a BUTTON in a free version of this plugin. a BUTTON! Do not waste your time by downloading this

I like this way to build pages within de WordPress editor based on my own developed Bootstrap themes. Great job. Offers a lot more tooling than competitors. Free version is a kind of pushy though. Maybe you should remove the adverts in the editor?

Free version is unusable. Very limited. Better use Gutenstrap Blocks https://wordpress.org/plugins/gutenstrap-blocks/

Don’t know about the previous version?! but this version is great for me. I can add classes to the columns, add different rows and set multiple breakpoints :-). Don’t need more for now. Like to know what ‘Lock container layout for editor’ means do (grayed out). Can’t find anything about it. Keep up the good work guys!

And here is yet another “free” plugin with very limited functions, while a full version is promoted in ads, with which you can get all the features… Very disappointing.
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ Nickiedeboer7.7y ago
In addition Bootstrap buttons, hidden columns, ordering, great overview by collapsing options, vertical and horizontal view. Very nice update. In the WordPress editor I simply insert a bootstrap container, rows and columns and just put all the blocks in there. Set all the breakpoints, experiment with them, great! Thanks, keep up the great work! This topic was modified 5 years, 1 month ago by Nickiedeboer.
