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 7+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
  • Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 5.0.27, well behind 6.8.

Update activity

How busy the existing users are, measured as downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites. A spike means a new release everyone's pulling; a long, slow decline means an aging user base that updates less.

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

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.

    I really like this plugin, its modern and simple. I was having a few problems with the css and Jason helped me very quick. Now I can use this plugin as I wanted to – thanks very much Jason!

    I was creating a new Blog series template for our website and our writer wanted to use pull out quotations in the article. Our back-end was not set up to do this, so I set out on a hunt for plugins. After testing 8 different plugins and not finding what I wanted, I finally found Easy Pull Quotes which did exactly what I wanted. I had a few questions on Custom CSS code edits to make the Pull Outs pop more off the page and utilize color, contrast, and depth. Jason Yingling the creator of the plugin was Amazing to work with! He responded very quickly and offered me snippets of CSS code to work with which enabled a great end result. I would very highly recommend both this plugin and the creator to anyone looking to make their website even more engaging and catch the visitor’s attention! Thank you again Jason for the great plugin and incredible service and help!

    It is a shame not more people know about this plugin, as it is a shame that it has not been updated in a long time. The plugin works almost perfectly: quotes look nice, unlike other similar plugins that box the quote in a way you may not like. Unfortunately the plugin is designed for the old Twitter of 140 characters but it is easy to find the function truncate in the editor and swap the 100 limit for 240 (so that it works with the 280 Twitter new limit). In addition, it is possible to easily change the attributes of the css in the plugin twitter but beware: you may need to reload a few times and purge the cache to see the changes. It does not get the 5 stars because it has no sharing option for facebook and the limit has not been updated recently, but nevertheless it is the best pull quote plugin I have found for WordPress.
