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

N/A

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.

An early reviewer loved it and asked for it to be maintained, but the latest review says it doesn't work on newer WordPress and throws an enqueue notice.

    Does not work with WP 5.3. Does enqueueing the wrong way compared to current WP practice. From log: Notice: wp_enqueue_script was called incorrectly. Scripts and styles should not be registered or enqueued until the wp_enqueue_scripts, admin_enqueue_scripts, or login_enqueue_scripts hooks. This topic was modified 6 years, 8 months ago by Arneby.

    I wish I’d found this sooner! Does exactly as described and worked perfectly. Thank you very much for this plugin. I’m sorry to see the low number of installs and no other reviews yet. Please don’t get discouraged – I’m sure if people knew about this plugin, they’d find it super useful. Surely all the lost souls in the support forums would be able to better communicate with WP gurus if they’d use this plugin! Please continue to maintain and update this plugin!
