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

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin · 100% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Refined from the date this plugin crossed into its current band.

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.

One reviewer says it worked out of the box and just wants the confirmation messages made translatable, while a more recent one says the double opt-in it delivers doesn't do what a double opt-in should.

   The plugin and its feature do not offer what a double opt-in feature should offer. Therefore, I am not satisfied with what the plugin has to offer and do not find the offered solution sufficient.

   Worked out-of-the box. Awesome! Great work! Double opt-in can be pretty tricky to integrate. Just one thing: It would be great to customize and translate the error and confirmation messages on the /opt-in page.
