Biggest opportunity: “login”, “profile” and “register” 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.

0.4%

of downloads still active

At least 100 of 25.3K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median Login & Users plugin keeps 0.7%, across 1,477 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 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.

    Basicly a vey good idea, but it should have options to choose: – yes/no LOGIN page – yes/no REGISTER page – yes/no those 2 PROFILE PAGES in many cases the user has already a special styled login or register page, the profile form ist not really fitting, but that we can ajust with the editor and nice regards from the Philipines

    There is no form customization. Apparently there is no way to user upload a picture for their own profile. It would be good if the pages created by the plugin could be shown under the user profile picture as a user menu. I hope I am helping to increase the plugin capability.

    The newest version causes some conflict with my website and I have to use the 0.2.2 version. Overall, I do recommend the author, developer focus on improving the “frontend user editing” instead of the “login page”. The “frontend user editing” is the thing we only needed. Thanks for developing such an awesome plugin. This topic was modified 4 years, 9 months ago by Liang. This topic was modified 4 years, 7 months ago by Liang.

    Hi, why don’t you provide a shortcode instead of a “template tag”? Using a template tag you have to run your code and load your styles and scripts on every single page of a site – since your plugin cannot know where the function is put by the admin. Further: template tags make sense if you use them with a template, meaning: several times. This is obviously not the case with a front end profile. You need it once, on one page. So, including all your stuff when the shortcode is found would be far more efficient. But maybe I’m wrong – However, the tabs feature is cool and would be a nice to have … Cheers, Frank
