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.

Mixed Broken updatesSupport gone quietCompatibilityPraise

Praise for the transliteration itself sits next to complaints about an ad tab pushed into the WooCommerce editor, product attributes wiped after activation, an unfixed CSRF vulnerability, and support that doesn't answer.

    If you including an AD you should also include a button or some other way to disable it.

    I installed a slug translation plugin, and they’re shoving their ad tab into the WooCommerce product editing admin panel…Scum. This topic was modified 5 months, 1 week ago by uxtora.

    After activating the plugin, all my product attributes broke and values disappeared. I hope there will be a separate boiler in hell for you, you’re just scum!

    Claims support, but has none. I enter my non-wp login page and when saved it returns “You entered an incorrect part of the path to your login page. The path to the login page can not consist only of digits, at least 3 characters, you must use only the characters [0-9A-z_-]!” My login page contains no digits, only standard formatting. No docs to refer to. Plugin is useless.
