Biggest opportunity: Swap “popup”, “age verification” and “privacy policy” for “terms”, “agree” and “policy”. “popup” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #24. “terms” sits at #7 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “age verification” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #15. “agree” sits at #11 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “privacy policy” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #14. “policy” sits at #18 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

How it's measured →2.5%
of downloads still active
At least 3K of 121.1K lifetime downloads are still running, in line with its category: the median Privacy & Consent plugin keeps 2.2%, across 502 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Privacy & Consent 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 1 release 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.

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.

What to do about it
- Swap “popup”, “age verification” and “privacy policy” for “terms”, “agree” and “policy”. “popup” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #24. “terms” sits at #7 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “age verification” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #15. “agree” sits at #11 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “privacy policy” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #14. “policy” sits at #18 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.
- One page off on “age verification”. #15 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.
- One page off on “privacy policy”. #14 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.

Plugin does exactly as expected. Even the free version has numerous configuration options that can make it a powerful tool to confirm visitors agree to basic terms. The response to a support request was also handled very quickly with good information.

Found this plugin to be easy to setup (once I read the instructions :). Works great as a gateway to protected content without having to get into membership plugins. I purchased the Designer Add-on to make styling the Popup easier.

This is the one you want. Easy to use, doesn’t break anything else. Simple is best!

Plugin does exactly what it claims. I’ve purchased collector extension and it turned out later that it does not have the feature I was looking for. So I contacted developer about it and he extended the plugin just for me in the next couple of days! Great contact and outstanding support – 100% recommend.

Best free plugin for popup disclaimer.
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ humananimal5.7y ago
Really cool plugin BUT, why does the page refresh after visitors click “ACCEPT”? the page already loaded in the background, would be better if possible to avoid this… Other than that, 5 stars!
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ nabosh6.9y ago
I needed something to show people some terms upon login and then record identifying information. This appears to be working great alongside of the “Collector” plugin that he sells. I made a support post and the developer responded in minutes, and then was totally cool when the issue was just me being kind of dumb. Also, for anyone wanting to be able to force-logout anyone who rejects the terms, you can just use this link: https://yourwebsite.com/my-account/?customer-logout=true I wish I could redirect the person to land on a specific page, but I haven’t figured that out yet. Based on how the day’s been going, I’m probably just missing something obvious.
