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.

    i tried a lot of plugins for this particular case, but i allways fall back to this one. it is my favorite for years and a whole lot of websites. also i like the plugin-icon – could be more fancy, but this is how it stands out! i ❤️ it!

    I’ve been looking for a simple login customization plugin like this one. The others I have used add so much bloated styling initially, it takes quite a while to go through settings and remove it all. Not this one. Simple and to the point.

    It does what it says, it changes the login logo to a custom made logo. Thanks for your work.
