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

No release in a year

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.

    Thank you for developing this plugin; it meets perfectly my needs. According to the settings, it should be possible to import data from the specific GitHub folder “website/main/docs”. Unfortunately, this feature does not work as the folder structure can only be specified on one level. After consulting the developer, I was informed that this is a bug that was supposed to be fixed within a few days. However, the issue still persists three months later and even after a new version was released. I would have greatly appreciated clearer communication regarding this issue. The features promised in the plugin and by the support team should be reliably delivered. Unfortunately, I now find myself compelled to look for alternative solutions.

    I cannot recommend this plugin enough, it is the only viable solution to synch a markdown git repository with your WordPress page. Aakash is always quick to help you out if you have any questions.

    Easy interface to use. And very useful for collaborative docs and community pages.

    Sometimes commits and pushes don’t reflect properly, but that’s enough. This is the way I wanted it.
