High removal-risk signals
63/100Maintenance and integrity signals that tend to precede a WordPress.org removal. Not an official status, a heads-up to act.
- Long abandoned. No update in 8+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
- Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 4.7.35, well behind 6.8.

Update activity
How busy the existing users are, measured as downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites. A spike means a new release everyone's pulling; a long, slow decline means an aging user base that updates less.
Release cadence
No release in a yearHow 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
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.

Despite the naysayers the plugin is still working in November 2021 – all credit to the developer. All hail Gregory Cornelius!!

Thank you! – the plug-in is very helpful to the workflow.

The plugin itself works fine, but the functionality provided is available either from Gutenberg, or the TinyMCE plugin (which is more or less a must for Gutenberg haters).

No problems here, with the image margins working exactly as I want. Great plugin and works great in WP 5.2.1 This topic was modified 7 years, 1 month ago by splinter1.

Parameter boxes and resultant changes show up in visual editor – but NOT in the site post. Should be updated or withdrawn – valuable time wasted. [Tested in ver 4.9.8]

I’m not sure what the other users are complaining about; I just installed the plugin and works perfectly.

This plugin used to be a valuable addition for working with images in the WordPress editor. Unfortunately, the author has not kept up with changes to WordPress, and as a result it is not compatible with WordPress 4.9.8. The features of the plugin no longer are visible in the imaging editing window. I tried to correspond with the author previously about this issue, but he does not respond to any inquiries. WordPress should remove this plugin from their repository, because it has been abandoned.
