Removal-risk signals

53/100

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 6+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
  • Falling behind WordPress. Tested up to WordPress 5.4.21.

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.

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

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.

    Used this for a few years now and was just perfect for a few situations where I could do calculations to variables within headlines, text and other drag and drop elements. I could pull in dynamic woo product prices and calculate it with another variable fees within custom store pages. Non computer person could just update the woo product base price and everything would display correctly everywhere. Starting having a few issues in the last year, think about the same time I upgraded to php8. Issue was it was dropping the last digit in the decimals on rounding if it ended in 0 regardless of the dec= attribute setting. ie) 3.99 displays fine but 3.90 would come out as 3.9. I came up with a fix for it though to force the second decimal. Will post it in the support discussion.

    This plugin kills the normal look in the Storefront theme + WooCommerce. Replacing “<?” with “<?php” evalmath.class.php solved the problem. This topic was modified 6 years, 8 months ago by pescianschi. This topic was modified 6 years, 8 months ago by pescianschi.

    This plugin does what it says. It enables you to calculate numeric values generated by shortcodes or numbers within the site. Support is fantastic. When there was a problem with hidden characters the developer pushed an upgrade out solving the problem in less than a day!
