Removal-risk signals

53/100

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 4+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
  • Falling behind WordPress. Tested up to WordPress 6.0.14.

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.

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.

    Just install and activate it, and on my twentytwelve child theme the menu is working again on tablets. But for smart phones I use in addition the plugin WP Responsive Menu. This way the old twentytwelve theme is fine again on smart phones, tablets and desktop. Thanks!

    Easy to install. Seems to solve the menu issues when using a tablet and the Hueman theme.

    Easy to install – and that was it – no settings to play work and worked right away. My issues was both mega menu and drop down menu not working on mobile (opening the link instead of the next level of navigation). Worked fantastic!

    Didn’t cause issues on the desktop browsers I’ve tried and on the mobile browsers I tried I was able to access the sub menus I needed to, so seems a winner so far!

    Just tested on iphone 6 – ios 8.1 – doesn’t work. Works fine on Samsung Galaxies. I hope this will be addressed soon as I can’t find any other solutions!
