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 10+ 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. 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.

    I used to use this plugin but now am getting Wordfence warnings so have to find another plugin. This topic was modified 8 years, 5 months ago by chayton.

    I was just looking for a way to see what assets were loaded, to determine what plugins to desactivate on certain custom post type using Plugin Organize. This plugin do that, but it can also do more, like let you show the source, the dependencies, the source link and even provide you a way to disable certain resources. Maybe a simple list or assets would have been more readable than the actual GUI, but it is nice anyway 🙂 It is somehow close to what the Gonzales (not free) WordPress plugin has to offer, but Gonzales has a bit more rules to offer for de-queing the resources. Anyway, this plugin is nice, and is a good complement to more complex plugins such as Plugin Organizer (for which you can define rules on post level).

    Took ages to find this amazing plugin because of its odd title, and it was so helpful to finally find out what scripts were being loaded on each page. For example, woocommerce loads of lot of unnecessary scripts, so whatever plugins you are using, if your site is slow this plugin will magically help you find out what scripts you can dequeue.
