High removal-risk signals

63/100

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 10+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
  • Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 4.5.33, well behind 6.8.

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.

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 would be a great app for embedding GPS maps tracking on a WordPress website. But unfortunately it seems google is asking for an api key etc. Also on activating it replaces the css and causes issues with the websites layout. Also when trying to use the mobile app it doesn’t recognise my url?

    Activating GPS Tracker messed up the appearance of the WordPress site. Using Lucious Child Theme on Genesis 2.3.1 framework Theme on WP 4.5.3 Deactivated and Deleted GPS Tracker before I could even see if it worked. Tis a shame as apparently others have had issues with Theme compatibility as well.
