Release cadence

Occasionally updated
from wp.org release tags

How 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

N/A

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. The recent download trend is too spiky to read.

    I tried this plugin and found that I have to choose in the general settings if the credits should be for a photographer, illustrator, song writer or composer. To me it seems a bit narrowsighted to only have one option in the main settings. The problem is that in Swedish we don´t have a directly corresponding term for credits. I would also like to have the credit line close to the image and not below the image caption. Another confusing thing is that you can only see the personal name in the media settings not in connection to the image in the Post or Page. That may confuse new users and content providers. To me this plugin is a bit immature.
