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
Occasionally updatedHow 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.

Language setting in user profile is missing in WordPress 5.2, this plugin enables this function. Great job!

A simple but effective plugin. The convenience of a quick admin language switcher saves precious seconds. Thanks.

This is the plugin I was looking for and was hard to find. It enables to get the front language according to the language specified in user profile. Thanks again for this great plugin. I hope you will keep it updated.

Hi, I think this plugin is really useful, stable and reliable. I’ve been recommending it in the BuddyPress forum and also now in my own translation helper plugin which I designed to work with this: [link removed] So excellent, 5 stars.
