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.

    This plugin adds a simple FAQ block to the editor and there are sufficient styling options. I think it could be further improved regarding accessibility, by adding a clickable and focusable element like a button. This topic was modified 2 years, 7 months ago by alpipego. This topic was modified 2 years, 2 months ago by alpipego. Reason: The developer has addressed my initial complaints and the plugin is now efficiently enqueueing JS and CSS

    This plugin used to work really well. However, recently the question part of the block is inaccessible when using the visual editor within Gutenberg. It’s no problem for me to use the HTML view in the editor to edit the question, but my client is having issues understanding that workaround, so I am faced with a decision to continue taking client complaints or switch plugins. I’ve added my voice to the support forum where others are having the same issue, but we have not received an update. If the developer could fix this one issue, it would be a perfect plugin.

    It’s a good plugin and simple, but we just translated it into Russian, but for some reason the whole translation does not appear in the admin panel
