Biggest opportunity: “font”, “font size” and “increase font size” 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 400 of 25K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,772 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.
Removal-risk signals
53/100Maintenance 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 5+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
- Falling behind WordPress. Tested up to WordPress 5.6.23.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| font resizer your tag | #24 | #15 | 0 |
| font size resizer | #17 | #12 | 0 |
| font your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| font size your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| increase font size your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||

Thank you for wasting my time having to install, check that the plugin does not work, uninstall and delete. Don’t waste your time on this one.

Love this plugin, it works as stated and has helped immensely. Would make it a 5 star review if it had the ability to have a floating header above the icons to indicate to the person what they are for. (we have alot of elderly customers on our website – http://www.azztech.com.au)

This plug-in is great. I use it on every website that I design. Personally when browsing on the web, I get annoyed when a website has a font that is too big or too small, so this solves that problem and ensures that I don’t push that frustration onto websites that I have made. IMPORTANT TIP: For this plug-in to work best, write your CSS with EM font sizes. Do not write your font sizes with PX or PT. Note: In some recent WP updates, I started seeing this error in the background: Function wp_register_script was called incorrectly. Scripts and styles should not be registered or enqueued until the wp_enqueue_scripts, admin_enqueue_scripts, or login_enqueue_scripts hooks. This notice was triggered by the WP-Font-Resizer-script handle. (This message was added in version 3.3.0.)

This is just an FYI, not a ding or bash. Installed the wp-font-resizer. Unfortunately it only increased and decreased the leading and not the font size. Not sure if it’s the version of WP I’m running or the template I’m using…

I’m getting this error on activating the plugin: The plugin generated 1 characters of unexpected output during activation. If you notice “headers already sent” messages, problems with syndication feeds or other issues, try deactivating or removing this plugin. The plugin was working ok on the old site (WP 3.8.5 and PHP version 5.3.24) When I made a clone (same WP version) of the old site to a new server (PHP 5.3.29) this plugin caused the site to stop working so I deactivated it. Now I’ve updated all other plugins and WP to v4.0.1 Activating the plugin again is giving the above mentioned error. So my conclusion is this plugin is not working in WP 4.0.1.
