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 5+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
  • Falling behind WordPress. Tested up to WordPress 5.6.19.

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

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.

    It’s really well done and simple but perhaps too simple. Like other reviews, it applies to ALL products – books or not. Need a way for it to only apply to the products that I choose.

    This is a really good plugin, missing just a couple of small features. It’s literally as easy as uploading & installing it and it just works. All of your products in WooCommerce will now act like books with a nice smooth 3D animation. If you had a back image, you can flip the book around, 180 degrees. Any pictures added to the product gallery become “Look Inside” images kind of like Amazon has. It’s great for building a store of books. What’s missing/wrong? 1) It applies to all products, so if you sell any products besides books your t-shirts and mugs and fuzzy slippers act like books. (I fixed this myself with a few lines of code). 2) If you don’t sell hardcover/paperback books (say coil bound) the plugin forces a ridge/shadow along the spine making it look weird and may not reflect the actual product 3) Look Inside could use keyboard navigation or sidebar like Amazon.
