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.

    Nice plugin to complete your post with basic information. Would be nice if the “when” tab could have also a begin and end date and time… This topic was modified 2 years, 5 months ago by emilegutenkauf.

    Can’t believe there are no reviews for this plugin. It doesn’t do much, but it gave us just what we needed – way to quickly create an Events page by using a gutenberg block. No silly calendar dashboards that use the classic editor, no inserting of short codes that make you then have to preview over and over to make sure the look is right. Really – if you’re just wanting to make an events page, pick this plugin. I hope the author is able to work on it to keep it working with WP.
