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.

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.

With your support I realized my task, ACF flexible content with ajax loading.

I couldn’t make it work, documentation is not clear enough, it’s confusing. Big con is that it needs another plugin which is quite large. This needs a standalone small solution. This topic was modified 5 years, 11 months ago by MarkJ.

Works great a little confusion at the start but got it working after reading several times and following the author examples, works very nice with ACF galleries

Great, another superb addition to the Ajax Load More toolset. While it was possible to hand code the functions that this tool provides before, this plugin makes it simpler and faster to get things done. Less head scratching, more getting things done! Really nice, thanks Darren 🙂
