Removal-risk signals

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 6+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
  • Falling behind WordPress. Tested up to WordPress 5.4.21.

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.

    My complexe GravityForms send my Total and Products Items to the Hosted E-xact Checkout Page without any problems. There was an issue with the Products field`s conditional logic and Products Dropdown; sending data even if the fields were hidden – but they fixed it within a few hours after I mentionned it. This plugin makes my life much easier as there’s is not much alternatives out there. After my intéraction with the developpers, I’m confident that I can rely on this plugin in the future. Works in Canada.
