Biggest opportunity: Swap “staff directory” for “team gallery”. “staff directory” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #11. “team gallery” sits at #8 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 →3.4%
of downloads still active
At least 4K of 118.1K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Media plugin keeps 0.8%, across 2,322 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.
This plugin shipped 15 releases 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.

What to do about it
- Swap “staff directory” for “team gallery”. “staff directory” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #11. “team gallery” sits at #8 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 “staff directory”. #11 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.

Super impressed with the scope of both the free version and the pro (currently on trial). The team were incredibly fast, polite and helpful when I encountered an issue. The only reason I need the pro version is for the ability to search and filter large numbers of profiles otherwise I could manage everything in the free version. Also, to note the cost of the pro version is incredibly reasonable for the capacities granted. Super pleased I found this and very happy to pay for the pro version.

I’m very satisfied with this plugin – it’s super easy to set up and packed with all kinds of customization options to make it look how you’d like it. The layouts are great-looking right out of the box, but still give you plenty of room to easily customize. Great looking on mobile as well, very important. Highly recommended – download and try it out for yourself.
