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.

Release cadence

Actively maintained
from wp.org release tags

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

N/A

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. The recent download trend is too spiky to read.

    This is a no-brainer addon for The Events Calendar plugin. All you have do is enable and activate the plugin on your website and visitors get a simple way to find and organize events.

    I created a lot of events and didn’t name them clearly enough. This plugin allowed me to search for the ones that were problematic and fix them. Easy money.

    Busy food truck – clients can see when we are available for their events and customers can see where we are, if we aren’t at our home base.

    Nice features with the standard plugin but limited layout, specially for a home page showing preview events.

    Edit: invitation to review stays on, so maybe on edit it will go away (looks like it’s giving me a REST API problem 🙁 ) Enjoy using this plugin, it works really great! Invitation to review keeps popping up! How do I change this?? This topic was modified 2 years, 11 months ago by gabriellephilipsen. Reason: invitation keeps popping up :-(
