of downloads still active
At least 10 of 4.3K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,771 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 11+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
- Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 3.9.40, 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| yapb your tag | #3 | #5 | 0 |
| photoblog your tag | #15 | #23 | 0 |
| images your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| photo blog your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| photo blogging your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
2 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days. 3 of its tags aren't in the top 24 for their own search.
What to do about it
- One page off on “photoblog”. #15 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.
- “images”, “photo blog” and “photo blogging” 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.

Directory rank
Ranked about #30,400 to #44,800, alongside the other plugins at 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

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

I really loved this plug-in: You can post pictures to flickr even to flickr groups based on post categories – awesome!! Unfortunately the plugin stopped working a couple of weeks ago. I hope Fran (the author) can fix it! Anybody is aware of an alternative? Thanks. Andreas

You’re supposed to get a token from flickr automatically. That doesn’t work, so I added the token manually. Then there is an option to upload a test picture. That doesn’t do anything at all. So I tried to create a test page with a picture, published it…and nothing happened. And when I tried to go to settings wp2flickr my apache server died. So I uninstalled and deleted the plugin. The idea may be good but I would like to have a plugin that works.

it makes your wp slower and you can just pload on picture per post.
