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

Occasionally updated
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.

    Saw a positive review on WP Tavern for this plugin, so decided to try it out. Very simple to install and use. It really does work well and have used it to replace other gallery plugins which were bloated and much more complicated.

    It doesn’t clutter up the admin menu like most other gallery plugins and just works right off the bat. Looks like I will be using this plugin a lot in the future 🙂
