Reading the movement columns

▲ means the item climbed positions compared with the snapshot 1, 7 or 30 days ago, ▼ means it fell and ▬ means no change. new means it was not in the tracked set at that time.

Directory popularity vs. real-world usage

WordPress.org installs only count sites that report back to WordPress.org. Real-world usage counts detected live sites and is a better signal for premium products.

Frequently asked questions

How is the theme ranking calculated?

Themes are ordered by WordPress.org popularity, which mostly follows active installs.

Why are installs shown as ranges?

WordPress.org rounds active installs into brackets such as 10K+ or 1M+.

What does a block theme mean?

Block themes are built for the Site Editor and use theme.json and HTML templates instead of PHP.

How often does the ranking change?

Positions are recalculated every day from a fresh snapshot.
