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

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
A declining trend compresses what a buyer would pay. The range spans more than 10x because wp.org publishes install counts as broad bands, and conversion and price compound on top. Read the midpoint as an order of magnitude, not a valuation.
How we estimate this
Assumptions
- Free → paid conversion. 0.5%–2% of active installs pay for the pro tier. Typical for freemium WordPress plugins; the real rate varies a lot by product.
- Annual price per customer. $79–$199 a year, typical for Booking & Events plugins rather than this plugin's own pricing.
- Acquisition multiple. 1.5x–2.5x annual revenue, the going range for small WordPress-plugin businesses, compressed because the install trend is declining.
- Install base. 10K–20K active installs, from our install estimate (wp.org only publishes the floor).

Revenue is installs × conversion × price; value is revenue × a typical acquisition multiple. Every factor is an assumption band, so the output is a wide range on purpose. If you're buying or selling, treat this as a starting point for due diligence.

All reviews on wp.org ↗- ★★★★★ Occam63.9y ago
This is a decent plugin except for one thing. There is an ad at the top of all dashboard pages prompting you to buy the full version. This is fine and completely understandable, they deserve to make money for their work. However, the button to dismiss the notice says it snoozes the message for 7 days. I’m happy to do this once per month, but every 7 days is too intrusive. Plus, the button doesn’t actually work, so it’s impossible to remove the ad. This is EXTREMELY intrusive. Imagine how cluttered your dashboard would be if every plugin did this. I would gladly give this plugin more stars, but since it’s negatively impacting my experience they get 2 tops.

This plugin produces clean, great looking timelines. I had initially found an reported an accessibility flaw and reported on the support forum. Only a day later and the devs fixed the problem and rolled out an update! It’s great to see very responsive developers taking accessibility seriously. Changing my review to 4 stars.
