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 8+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
  • Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 4.8.30, 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.

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.

    Not familiar with Laravel at all so I was lucky to stumple upon this plugin. It is very helpful when debugging on a remote WordPress, like a staging site. I usually write very small plugins directly in the dashboard and this is so much better than regular var_dump. No more copy and pasting to a var_dump formatter. No more digging in page source after output. For local development with an IDE XDebug is obviously better but for most WordPress projects this is more than enough. Had no problems using this with WordPress 6.0.2.

    I love being able to use dd() when developing for WordPress. Thank you for creating this. Works perfectly with WordPress 5.4.1 by the way 😉
