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.

    great plugin if you change your url (e.g., like in my case, when you setup the whole site on a hoster-provided url and then switch to the actual domain name). it workes flawlessly. i used the pro version and i would recommend it to make sure every url in every database file is done.

    Siempre había hecho esta operación de forma manual, y el plugin me ha ahorrado mucho tiempo. Hice el cambio de url en una instalación ubicada en una subcarpeta, y tuve que cambiar a mano el nombre de la subcarpeta y el archivo .htaccess. Para una instalación grande me plantearé sin duda adquirir la versión Pro.
