Removal-risk signals

51/100

Maintenance 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.
  • No tested-up-to version. The listing declares no "Tested up to" version.

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.

    Very bood plugin ! It’s so easy to add videos from youtube, as it’s find itself title and etc. from a link. Would be great to be able to add just a googleplaylist ID and get the playlist work directly. And the support was really really fast. I asked a question about the plugin and my theme, and i directly got an update of the plugin few hours later !

    I give it 5 stars for support. They were very patient with me and helped me greatly even with the free version. I did purchase the pro and am having difficulties. More than likely I’m not using it correctly. They mean it when they ask you to send a support request to them if you are either having difficulties or frustrated which there actually should not be any. I am almost 70 and have dementia; but NOT Alzheimer. As far as the plugin: The free version is extremely easy to use. That’s because it’s basic. Only a couple of designs for the type of player you want because there are few settings. However, the default values can easily be used without problem and a lot of people may not need a variety of players; especially if they don’t have very many videos on their site. I did get the “pro” version and for me I have trouble with understanding some of the settings. Again, this is where plugin.builders grand support comes into play.
