Removal-risk signals
53/100Maintenance 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 5+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
- Falling behind WordPress. Tested up to WordPress 5.7.17.

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.

What its installed base runs
via wordpress.orgShare of active installs on each version of this plugin · 100% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

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.

Plugin is working fine but it’s showing this error:WooCommerce has detected that some of your active plugins are incompatible with currently enabled WooCommerce features.

Unfortunately, HPOS compatibility is not declared, but the code is compatible [by my review]. You can add code to the primary plugin file to declare compatibility if you would like: add_action('before_woocommerce_init', function(){ if ( class_exists( \Automattic\WooCommerce\Utilities\FeaturesUtil::class ) ) { \Automattic\WooCommerce\Utilities\FeaturesUtil::declare_compatibility( 'custom_order_tables', __FILE__, true ); }});

Hello, is possible to update this plugin to meet HPOS requirements please?

Great plugin! Does what it says. But I was wondering if you could update it to support WooCommerce’s HPOS. I want to enable it, but it says that your plugin isn’t compatible with it.
