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 12+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
  • Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 3.4.2, 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.

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. 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.

    Really simple and works well. I actually using it and no problem. Good if you want to show your Klout score and one thing important to say is that it also create a link to your Klout profile. Good to earn +K easily on Klout.

    Lack of screenshots is not encouraging – when I implemented, noticed only text, inspected the element and noticed it pointed to a plugin directory called kscore. Sadly this was not the directory that WordPress installed the plugin/widget to. Anyhow – looks terrible – don’t even bother.
