High removal-risk signals
63/100Maintenance 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 3.6.1, 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.
What its installed base runs
via wordpress.orgShare of active installs on each version of this plugin · 97% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.
Estimated active installs
The public count shows “500+”. Our estimate pins where the real number sits.

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
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.

Had to try it, because it said it do what I was looking for. Even if it’s old it still does the job. This topic was modified 6 years, 2 months ago by tkoc.

Funciona muito bem! Parabéns! Exemplo importante: Eu tinha um problema com o SearchFord (muito bom em buscas imediatas, com miniaturas) e o Visual Composer –> SearchFord exibia os códigos “[vc****…” porque a página não tinha um RESUMO (excerpt). Agora tem, e é exibido perfeitamente!! Agradeço muito ao(s) autor(es) deste plug-in! This topic was modified 9 years, 2 months ago by samenezes.

I took a risk on this older plugin, and I’m so glad I did! It does just what I needed: allows me to create manual excerpts for my site’s pages so that I can more effectively use Twitter cards. Thank you!
