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 4.4.34, well behind 6.8.

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

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.

    Changing the styling of Gravity Forms submit button so that it fits in your theme is always a struggle. Gravity Forms support is not of much help, while it should not be difficult at all. In my case, I just needed to change the class-name of the button. The plugin does exactly this. Problem solved.

    I’m able to add classes to submit button independently without using the filter. Without PHP notices or bugs so far.
