Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

WP PlugIndex currently records ProfileSwitch Lite – Family Accounts & Child Profiles version 1.0.4 as active, updated 5d ago and tested up to WordPress 7.1.
Overview
About this plugin
ProfileSwitch Lite turns a single WordPress login into multiple profiles. The primary user switches between them with one click — no logout, no separate passwords to remember. Each profile is a real WordPress user, so course progress, orders, comments, and activity stay completely separate.
Use cases
Families — Kids and household members get their own profile without each needing a separate email and password
Youth programs — Sports clubs, day camps, and after-school programs where one parent manages multiple kids’ registrations under a single login
Online courses — Each profile tracks its own course progress, quizzes, and completions, so multiple learners in a household don’t overwrite each other
Business accounts — Departments or team members get their own profile under one company login

Up to 10 profiles per primary account
