High removal-risk signals

75/100

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 9+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
  • Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 4.8.30, well behind 6.8.
  • Reviews souring. Recent reviews read meaningfully worse than older ones, an early sign of decline.

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.

Older reviewers loved how simply it duplicated events, but the newest ones say it's abandoned and throwing deprecation errors, with no update in sight.

    This plug in no longer works, and is no longer maintained, or updated.

    It worked great. But now it’s throwing this error: Deprecated: /home/teamtelli/www/events/wp-content/plugins/the-events-calendar/src/deprecated/TribeEventsAPI.php is deprecated since version 3.10! Use Tribe__Events__API instead. in /home/teamtelli/www/events/wp-includes/functions.php on line 5049 Any chance for an update and fix?

    My events are pretty simple, but it duplicated them just fine. Thanks! This topic was modified 6 years, 6 months ago by genrobgen.

    I’m aware this hasn’t been updated in years, but all I’m doing is duplicating a simple event: a blood drive at church that happens every two months. The plugin seems to be stable and error-free. All it does is give you an extra button under each item on the Events list; click it and it makes a copy and saves it as a draft. Go into the new draft and change the date, click Publish, and you’re done. If you’re doing nothing new and fancy, you should be fine. I can imagine EventBrite tickets, etc. might have updated code, and for that kind of stuff it will probably break. For those of us running a simple organization’s blog with no bells and whistles, probably not.

    Not sure why The Modern Tribe doesn’t include this in their functionality even with the Pro version! But it’s working for me with WP Ver. 5.2.4

    The plugin works quite well — about the same as the more general Post Duplicator plugin (https://wordpress.org/plugins/post-duplicator/) Unfortunately, as with the Post Duplicator plugin this plugin doesn’t duplicate Ticket info. I know the events manager has a separate extension for ticketing, but it would be EXTREMELY nice if this TEC-specific plugin would include ticketing info when duplicating events! (I mention this because my client has weekly events that are almost identical — perfect for duplication. Unfortunately, at least for me, instead of just updating the title and dates one has to manually re-enter tickets info each time.)

    Installed easily and now a “duplicate” option shows for every established event. Once you click duplicate a copy if made of that event and it is set to draft mode. Simply edit this copy (don’t forget to adjust the permalink!), publish and you’re all set. Saved me lots of time.

    Very useful to go around a recurrence bug in The event Calendar with WPML. Just copy the event post and change the date! Thank you very much
