Biggest opportunity: Swap “database” and “manager” for “database browser” and “wrapper”. “database” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “database browser” sits at #6 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “manager” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “wrapper” sits at #6 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 40K of 1.1M lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,770 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.

    It works, but a bit different way, at first click, it might work and after an hour this session will get expired, again if you click button “Enter local phpMyAdmin” will not open phpmyadmin and displays message like ‘Session expired’,but don’t worry,now first click on 2nd button “Enter hosting’s phpMyAdmin”, it’ll open blank screen, don’t close this window and then click 1st button “Enter local phpMyAdmin” one or two or more times, it’ll work InShaAllah
