Biggest opportunity: “product gallery slider”, “woocommerce product gallery” and “woocommerce product gallery slider” 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.

How it's measured →2.2%
of downloads still active
At least 300 of 13.7K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Media plugin keeps 0.8%, across 2,327 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Media plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
Removal-risk signals

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.

Very few options added in Pro version. Customer service reply was very rude like “what else do you want, you could have watched demo before” Instead, they could at least show interest on what customer can contribute for their improvement.

it heavily slows down the site. it takes, on average, 20 seconds to load a 2mb gallery. without the slider it takes about 2 seconds not adjuested to twenty twenty – the left arrow is on the photos whereas the right arrow is beside the photos after choosing a variant it shows the featured image whereas it should stick to the currently being viewed by the user I have used the premium version This topic was modified 5 years, 11 months ago by angloszulki.
