Biggest opportunity: Swap “force”, “last login” and “online status” for “last”, “last logged in” and “brute force”. “force” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #23. “last” sits at #14 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “last login” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #16. “last logged in” sits at #21 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “online status” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #12. “brute force” sits at #22 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

of downloads still active
At least 8K of 181.2K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Login & Users plugin keeps 0.7%, across 1,476 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Login & Users 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 2 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.

What to do about it
- Swap “force”, “last login” and “online status” for “last”, “last logged in” and “brute force”. “force” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #23. “last” sits at #14 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “last login” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #16. “last logged in” sits at #21 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “online status” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #12. “brute force” sits at #22 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.
- One page off on “last login”. #16 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.
- One page off on “online status”. #12 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.
