Biggest opportunity: “back to top”, “scroll to top” and “scroll top” 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.

63/100

Maintenance and integrity signals that tend to precede a WordPress.org removal. Not an official status, a heads-up to act.

  • Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 5.0.31, well behind 6.8.

Directory rank

Ranked about #50,200 to #69,500, alongside the other plugins with fewer than 10 installs. Plugins with the same install count swap places between wp.org requests, so this is where most of them sit. Checked monthly, last on 1 Nov 2026.

Update activity

Downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites.

Not enough installs to measure. This needs at least 100 active sites; below that, a handful of downloads reads as tens of thousands.

Estimated active installs

wp.org publishes an install count once a plugin has enough of them. This one has none yet.
