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 12+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
- Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 3.7.41, 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 · 100% 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 “10+”. 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
A small install base leaves thin data to model from. The range spans more than 10x because wp.org publishes install counts as broad bands, and conversion and price compound on top. Read the midpoint as an order of magnitude, not a valuation.
How we estimate this
Assumptions
- Free → paid conversion. 0.5%–2% of active installs pay for the pro tier. Typical for freemium WordPress plugins; the real rate varies a lot by product.
- Annual price per customer. $49–$129 a year, typical for WordPress plugins rather than this plugin's own pricing.
- Acquisition multiple. 2.5x–4.5x annual revenue, the going range for small WordPress-plugin businesses, stretched a little because downloads are growing.
- Install base. 10–20 active installs, from our install estimate (wp.org only publishes the floor).
Inputs

Revenue is installs × conversion × price; value is revenue × a typical acquisition multiple. Every factor is an assumption band, so the output is a wide range on purpose. If you're buying or selling, treat this as a starting point for due diligence.

If you get paid to implement this plug, it will be more than wonderful for FormidablePro users. Please contact me, I have paid customization requests that will improve your code. Thanks, Paulo ======================================= Hello, I would like to estimate costs for your customization work. The possible improvement can be integrated to your source code and distributed as open source or the way you might prefer. 1. NUMBER VALIDATION: (This is for a numbers only student ID, in my case 9 digit. I see I can adapt your phone or CC validation to perform this task. 2. EMAIL DOMAIN VALIDATION: such as *@mydomain.com OR *@sub.mydomain.com 3. GENERAL EMAIL VALIDATION: this will just validate any email format such as has @, has domain extension .com, .xx, .xxx.xx, etc. doesn’t start with a dot. 4. EMAIL CONFIRMATION FOR BOTH OF THE ABOVE EXAMPLES. 5. PHONE VALIDATION: US/CA PHONES + INTERNATIONAL FORMAT ALL TOGETHER IN THE SAME FIELD. I would like to know how long will it take to be done, costs and how to perform payments. Cheers, Paulo =================================
