High removal-risk signals

63/100

Maintenance 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 11+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
  • Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 4.4.34, 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 year

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. 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.

    Just worked, with next to no configuration or messing around. Pleased to see so many good Bootstrap plugins lately. Feature suggestion: enabling fade instead of slide.

    After reading hundreds of Google posts, following tens of tutorials and trying some 20 plugins, Agnosia Bootstrap Carousel is the only solution that works 100%. Forget about Jetpack, with or without a WordPress.com connection. Forget about Lynda’s and similar tutorials. If you want a Carousel that, among other things, will work independently of how many posts-per-page you set in admin and that will free you from having to create posts with featured images, Agnosia Bootstrap Carousel is your plugin. Congratulations and the best to Villareal for a truly awesome plugin.

    It is OK for showing a slider that runs by its own. The only thing I miss is the capability of showing or not the title of the image, or change the CSS of the text.

    It can display only one image at time! Why do you call it carousel??? it just regular slider, rather primitive and poorly written. Anyone, return me 6 hours of my life i’ve lost due to this incorrect naming.. :'(

    Thanks for this- I like that you can order and choose the images with this one for each slider and don’t have to be restricted to just the attached of a post or page.
