What this plugin might earn a year, and what it might sell for. Modeled from public signals; we don't see anyone's books.

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 love your plugin. It’s exactly what I was looking for. I have web site about the valencian language with large amounts of images in galleries and some of them need exactly this, a way to attach an audio file where the visitors can check how each wor on a picture is pronounced. I did a test page with a gallery made in wp block editor (whoch is very poor) and it works perfectly. I could also manage to change icon size and colour, as explained by you in this support formum. The big issue is, that I use the foogalllery plugin for al my image galleries and obviously inside these galleries the icon won’t appear and the audio won’t be able to launch. Do you know about other free galleries which support your plugin? Is there a workaround to manage issues in third party gallery plugins, adding some code?? Great work Jorge and Co.!!

    Shame that it hasn’t been updated for so long as this plugin could have been really good. Was looking for something along these lines but i guess i will just have to keep on looking.
