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
Actively maintainedHow 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. A declining trend compresses what a buyer would pay.

Makes it much easier to navigate Bricks templates and pages when building complex themes. The new keyboard shortcuts have been handy too!

Thank you to the developer, it’s the first plugin I add to a Bricks install, the admin bar dropdown will save you so much time and it can also be added to appear on the Bricks editor page.

Fantastic plugin. I was working on a site without it installed and everything took so much longer, I didn’t realise just how much time and frustration this plugin saves me.
