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 4.3.34, 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.

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.

    A good plugin! It’s just a pity, no update has been offered for over 7 years and therefore it doesn’t run with the current WordPress version and PHP8.1 This topic was modified 3 years, 8 months ago by cidgmbh.

    Plugin works great but it only displays one word for the place holder value… for example, I want to display “Pay Grade” with auto complete value but when I use placeholder:Pay Grade it only displays “Pay” on the field.. it truncates upon the space… well this is a problem because Pay isn’t enough information for the end user to know what to enter in the field, seems like an easy fix 🙂

    The plugin (v. 1.0.0) has a error in php code. https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-not-working-290?replies=1 The developer, in a few time, update plugin and fix the error. However, after the update, there is another issue. The problem is that if you try to use two or more autocomplete fields in a form, only the last form work.
