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
Actively maintainedHow often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

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
Est. acquisition value
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.

It removed unused JS and CSS, and now my pages load in half the time. Perfect for people who want better PageSpeed scores without diving into code.

Great Plugin. The easiest way to remove code from pages, EG removing WooCommerce files from a home page to improve page speed tests.

Excellent plugin to reduce the load time on your pages.The Assets Manager menu shows at the top of the adminbar when viewing each page.

It’s useful to remove head scripts/styles that are only needed on a few pages, basically to police stuff plugins really should be doing on their own. My biggest complaint is “assets manager” shows in the admin bar for ALL users even logged out! if the admin bar is visible. I suspect the author keeps that disabled on their site and doesn’t realize it shows. I have to hide the manager (making it impossible to edit) at all times because I do show the admin bar for the Friends plugin and other features.

At first I started with one star because haven’t found the button on which one get to the assets manager, then three stars because I wasn’t sure how it works, now after using it and dig into the code of the plugin I found it very good so that’s the five stars, works as expected! Great work, thank you! This topic was modified 4 years, 3 months ago by Tokatl. This topic was modified 4 years, 3 months ago by Tokatl. Reason: Understood how it works

I need a plugin like this, BUT, like other reviewers, I can’t figure out how to configure and use it. There’s a message in the settings that says to use the link in the Admin Bar. There is nothing related to this plugin that shows up in the Admin Bar. How does one use this? Surely, one of the reviewers that gave 5 starts can chime in? Cheers

Well can’t try this as this is unnecessary coded with an extra panel which is a miracle to be found. No menu in the admin panel like described (which is unnecessary and annoying anyway)

Intrusive junk. When I try to delete this plugin, I get the following error message: Deletion failed: There has been a critical error on this website. Also, the plugin’s folder is named “gonzales” instead of anything remotely matching “Webcraftic Assets manager.” Really? Just “gonzales”? That makes it impossible to search for. STUPID! The only way to get rid of this junk is to delete the entire folder via FTP.
