Removal-risk signals
53/100Maintenance 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 5.5.20.

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
No release in a yearHow 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
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.

This is an essential functionality for a community, and it’s nice to have a free plugin for this. But the plugin is not compatible with BuddyBoss Platform (a BuddyPress fork by BuddyBoss). When activated with BuddyBoss Platform (BuddyX free theme), everything seems to work as expected in the back-end, but the plugins causes a critical error on group pages on the front-end. Also, the member type functionality, which supports BP Member Types, is not compatible with member types as native to the BuddyBoss Platform. Overall, I find this plugin is pretty useful and functional, but it doesn’t play along well with a BuddyBoss fork, BuddyBoss Platform. I would have put 5 stars anyways if this plugin was not published by BuddyBoss themselves, the creators of the BuddyBoss Platform. Please make this work with your very own BP fork!

I found that it breaks MailPoet famous plugin. Still it seems to work with BP. Developers must fix errors.
