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 11+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
  • Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 3.9.40, 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.

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 was a happy user of this plugin for many years. I was creating a test site of my shop, tested some things, deleted the site and when a new need arose, I copied a fresh version of my shop to test things again. What I didn’t know was that this plugin duplicates database tables and leaves them after deleting the blog. In result, db grows, slows down and is prone to errors. It’s hard to clean up after few years. This and the fact that this plugin was not updated since few years shows that Blog Copier shouldn’t be installed under any circumstances! It works even now (hence 2 stars) but it’s not worth the price. This topic was modified 9 years ago by michaldybczak.

    You are a life saver. I tried using the plugin that you originally derived this from, and it was having issues. But this seems to have saved the say! YES Thanks Doug

    This is an excellent plugin. I had only used the one by Ron Rennick before, but this one works just as well and appears to be actively maintained. Thanks for releasing this for us 🙂

    I was thinking of copying over database files from old blog to a new one but this plugin made the whole process simply awesome! Works perfectly as expected!! Thanks
