Biggest opportunity: Swap “masonry image gallery” for “masonry”. “masonry image gallery” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #24. “masonry” sits at #9 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 →4.6%
of downloads still active
At least 700 of 15.1K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Media plugin keeps 0.8%, across 2,323 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 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.

The comment describes technical issues with a website or a system. It mentions the inability to select categories or tags, which forces the display of all articles. Additionally, there is a problem with the image option in comments not working, necessitating the use of a default image, which is seen as unfortunate. This feedback suggests the need for improvements in the website’s functionality, particularly in terms of categorization, tagging, and image handling in comments.

Had a problem with the plugin causing the site to fail. The developer was very fast to respond with a fix. Great service.

The Masonry plugins on Divi Marketplace are way cheaper than this plugin when it comes to the Premium version. Currently on Divi Marketplace I found one with $9.99 for life and Unlimited Website Usage, while WPTools sell their plugin for $ 129.99 / YR for unlimited uses… Buah!

So few options in the free version that it hardly makes sense. This is purely an offer to bait.
