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.

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

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.

    Hello, after a long time working as expected, the plugin suddenly stopped working without any error! It keeps searching for posts to delete with a never ending status. Even logs stopped populating. What is the issue? This topic was modified 4 years, 2 months ago by diriras.

    Unable to select search by content only. When selected both “look at on content” and “look at on title” it doesn’t mean it is AND relationship, so it still finds posts with identical titles, but different content.

    I have no idea why this plugin isn’t ranked higher or installed more often. It is perfect for deleting exactly what needs to be deleted.

    This plugin doesn’t compare posts which are scheduled/queued. Please fix.
