How it's measured →5.1%
of downloads still active
At least 70K of 1.4M lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,765 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.
This plugin shipped 6 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
- Your five tags are all earning their place. Each gets you onto page 1 of its own search, so none is worth giving up. “memory limit”, “role based” and “upload” (#5, #5 and #5 untagged) would be the next worth testing if a slot frees up.

Update activity
How busy the existing users are, measured as downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites. A spike means a new release everyone's pulling; a long, slow decline means an aging user base that updates less.

Actively maintainedHow often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

This plugin almost killed my site. I spent over 24 hours trying to identify and fix the cause of the PHP Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 2097152 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 20480 bytes). It turned out to be this extension, which set a hard limit of 2M (2 megabytes) for the site’s entire RAM (memory_limit). I’m extremely dissatisfied.

This is a plugin I use on every site I create, not because I don’t know all the ways to increase the upload size, but because they don’t always work and this is SOOOOO much easier and always works.

This plugin is a lifesaver. There are no words but to simply say: it delivers.

The best plugin

No podía cargar un archivo PDF bastante pesado. Modifique algunos valores directamente en archivos planos de texto de configuración de wordpres agregando líneas pero no me solucionó el problema. Instale el plugin, modifique un parámetro y listo. Problema solucionado. 100% Recomendado.
