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 10+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
  • Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 4.5.33, 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.

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

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 works great for WOrdpress Multi sites that need this feature. You need to have clear understanding on how WPMU works and understand the network functions, before you use it and get your hands dirty. Works very well. Author is very helpful too.

    a bit confused on a first step/first time but after I understand how it work then can config and setting it properly. now everything work fine. This solution is suitable for admin that want to have Buddypress network work separately on your single install wordpress (Mu enabled) and this plugin require another Network plugin so it’s work if you don’t have network plugin – this plugin won’t work Somebody that already have website running and want this thing happen you may need to backup/copy and upload blog to new site created in new network OR you can add old site to new network but beware of URL structure First you must understand how Network work first Normal WordPress MU – WordPress MU example.com — Subsite site1.example.com — Subsite site2.example.com WordPress MU + Network Plugin – WordPress MU — Subsite site1.example.com — Subsite site2.example.com — Subsite act as Network — Subsite site1.example.com/subsubsite1 — Subsite site1.example.com/subsubsite2 So if you move your old blog from yourblog.example.com to new network, URL will change to newnetwork.example.com/yourblog You can try another solution is backup old blog and create new network with the same URL name example yourblog/new networkname.example.com then upload blog to new network Above is all for whoever that already have blog running now but if you plan to create new blog with wordpress MU network so no problem, it’s easy but one thing you should know that you must create new network for every new buddypress network You cannot enable separate Buddypress in sites on same network You will lose ability for single sign-on same as you can on WordPress MU without Network plugin because WordPress MU + Network act like separately WordPress MU on the front end so you and your users must login every network but still left a good thing is that user base still share on global network so you can use same user+passsword to login actually you can use cookie to check that visitor already member on network and login them automatically via function wp_signon first drop cookie after user login on any network under your main network second if user go to another network, check that cookie if cookie verify that this is already member and already sign-in on another network, now auto login for this user to current network.. this can work on backend your user will smoothly login via single sign-on by they don’t need to do anything This scenario of plugin power may not suitable for normal people that cannot handle complexity but I know that if you already have or plan to have WordPress MU Network site to let your user create new network for their own under your main WordPress MU, I think you can handle it.

    WordPress Multi Network Plugin + BP Multi Network make the things simple. You only installed wordpress and buddypress once, you get more websites and groups. It saves time, cost and speed your plan.
