Biggest opportunity: Swap “cards”, “grid” and “showcase” for “org”, “author info” and “github actions”. “cards” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “org” sits at #12 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “grid” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “author info” sits at #13 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “showcase” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “github actions” sits at #16 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

0.7%

of downloads still active

At least 400 of 54.1K lifetime downloads are still running, in line with 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.

This plugin shipped 12 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.

    Thanks for the great plugin. Do not limit this plugin to just wordpress. So, using these layouts, let’s manually add posts such as e-books, websites, photos, and documents downloads. This topic was modified 5 years, 6 months ago by koronavirusu.

    I was happy to find this plugin! Made adding my own plugin’s card to my website straight forward and got to focus on styling more than the API to pull the info. Very happy 🙂

    I’m truly thankful to you for making such an awesome looking plugin. Please don’t let this plugin to die without any update or patches. I personally think you should release a pro version of this plugin over codecanyon. As a developer myself I know how hard it is to spend time for free plugins. If you make a pro version of this plugin, I would be more than happy to buy it. Also after playing with this plugin a bit I will send you a donation (if you accept that) for keep updating this awesome plugin and not let it die. Please keep this plugin updated with new patch or release a paid version. 🙂 Keep up the good work brother.
