Read from the WordPress.org plugin API on 2026-09-16, covering 71,729 plugins. Active install counts are the directory’s own rounded buckets. “Looks abandoned” describes update cadence, not code quality — a simple plugin that does one thing may need no updates, but it also stops being tested against new WordPress releases.
