How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Estimated value

What this plugin might earn a year, and what it might sell for. Modeled from public signals; we don't see anyone's books.

Est. annual revenue

Est. acquisition value

N/A

No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

Both reviewers call it a real improvement over stock Flamingo, one for making messages easier to find and one for painless export and import during a host move, with a small ask for renaming CF7 field labels in the preview.

    Absolutely essential for me, because let’s be honest, Flamingo isn’t a very intuitive name for viewing your messages, and I don’t think people use the address book much more than to view messages. Excellent work!!I only miss being able to rename the CF7 “labels “Fields to Diplay” (Your-name, Your-phone,…) in the message preview. This topic was modified 2 months, 2 weeks ago by jburg3333.

    Thank you for providing this functionality to the Flamingo plugin. I’m in the middle of moving my website. AC Advanced Flamingo Settings allowed me to easily export/import client messages to the new host without having to recopy the entire database or do anything complicated.
