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.

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

N/A

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.

    Thanks for that plugin – works great! I added do_shortcode in line 211 of block-user-account.php so the message can have a shortcode included then: $user_message = do_shortcode( get_user_meta($userinfo->ID, ‘user_status_message’, true) );

    I tested 2 more plugins with this feature. This plugin gave the best results. It would be great if it could be improved a little more. e.g; It would be great to see all blocked users on 1 page.

    You can’t just blindly hope that $_POST[‘user_status’] and $_POST[‘user_status_message’] are going to be there when you call bua_save_user_status It’s causing notices in my dev environments.
