Removal-risk signals

45/100

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 3+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.

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

N/A

Est. acquisition value

N/A

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.

    I originally used the free version of this theme and loved it so much that I bought the premium version. The countdown application in the stream helped my audience grow while also keeping me on a dedicated schedule. New visitors to my site were able to view my stream and engage with my audience without any issue. I actually can’t rate this application highly enough. After my experience with the theme, I tried both their Twitch TV Easy Embed plugin and their Twitch TV Rail plugin; I vouch very highly for both. Highly HIGHLY recommend use of any and all product that StreamWeasel provide. They’re a great company. Very hands on and have actively replied to any/all emails/request for support I have. I freaking love them.
