  • Falling behind WordPress. Tested up to WordPress 5.9.16.

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.

What its installed base runs

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.

    I switched my theme to Extra by Elegant Themes and there a post with videos where I did not want the featured image to show on the actual post. This has done just that for me. So easy and works great so far!

    Hi Tyler, Tried this out but to no success. I’m using a theme by MajorThemes.com called “The Hue”. If there’s a fix for this, more than happy to make a donation! Thank you for your time!
