Biggest opportunity: Swap “automaticly” for “autogenerate”. “automaticly” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “autogenerate” sits at #12 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 10 of 5.6K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,767 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.
High removal-risk signals
63/100Maintenance and integrity signals that tend to precede a WordPress.org removal. Not an official status, a heads-up to act.
- Long abandoned. No update in 10+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
- Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 4.2.39, well behind 6.8.

How it's tracked →Directory searches this plugin turns up in, and which way each one is moving. WordPress.org publishes no history of search positions, so this starts the day we first tracked a keyword and never backfills.
Not enough tracked days yet to call a direction. Momentum needs at least three keywords measured a week or more apart.
wp.org is where the directory puts the plugin for that search. On merit is where it would sit if results were ranked on rating, support and updates, without the install boost. The last column is how far the wp.org position moved, from our first reading in the last 90 days to the latest.
| Keyword | wp.org | On merit | wp.org move, 90 days |
|---|---|---|---|
| wp stacker your tag | #4 | #3 | — |
| autogenerate | #12 | #8 | 0 |
| automaticly your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| pocket your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| post your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| wp your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
3 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 2 listed. 1 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words). 4 of its tags aren't in the top 24 for their own search.
What to do about it

Very nice Plugin for publish Pocket Bookmarks in Posts.

This Plugins helps to sort out good links via Pocket for sharing them later in a post. It gives me switchable features for managing the content automatically but leaves enough space to not distrub my workflow. I hope there will be support for wallabe in the future
