High removal-risk signals
63/100Maintenance 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 7+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
- Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 4.9.31, 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 yearHow 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
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.

Was looking probably a little too long for it but does it’s job and is compact enough

I feel this functionality should be in the core, like Joomla, etc. But since it isn’t – I installed Gtuk. Just click “Activate” and you have a new option in your posts/pages edit screen. Set your unpublish date and forget it. Nice! I’ve got a ton of other plugins and am using a theme from ElegantThemes and no conflicts or problems. Thanks for this much-needed plugin!

Works as expected. Tested with a custom post type. Reverts back to draft at appointed time like a charm.
