    How can I search for plugins with greater than X active installations?

    Or alternatively is it possible to download a table of all the plugins with all their meta data so I can search them more easily?

    The plugin search does not have an advanced features.

    What you’re asking for is not available. But if you’re a developer, there’s an API available for WordPress.org plugins (among other things). See: https://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress.org_API#Plugins.

    These plugins leverages that API:

    You can’t. Also that’s not necessarily a useful metric for what a person is looking for.

    Perhaps, but for someone new to WordPress if 100,000 or greater than X installations are using the plugin I want to know about it.

    What is the metric used for the ‘popular’ category of plugins? Is that simple a greater than X? One thing that would be useful is an advanced search that would only search the popular category.

    Hi, I had the same question but couldn’t find an answer.I am also trying to install pluging on my site.
    Is there a way to find modules with more prominent X dynamic establishments?

    Additionally, would it be possible to download a table of all the modules with all their meta information so I could look at them all with no problems?

    A high-level summary of the module search is not available.`
