How 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. 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.

    It works! Although: – Not for my custom post types created with ACF – I had to adjust “Posts to process per page reload” and click “Convert” a few items to get all my 350 posts converted – The result message doesn’t seem reliable (showing “127 posts converted” repeatedly when converting a category and its parent category) – A calculation of the conversions to be made before clicking “Convert” would be very nice

    I had imported 750 posts from a csv that I needed to change from standard to the quote post format. Since they were all in one category, I was able to very quickly convert them to the quote format without having to manually open and change every single post. Yay!
