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 6+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
  • Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 4.6.30, well behind 6.8.

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.

    Works well with latest Woocommerce 3.01. I downloaded and activated this plugin, and I use it with Woocommerce 3.01, and work very good. They did a good job. So I give them 5 stars.

    I thought it did exactly what it was supposed to do but then I loaded some catalog pages like the main shop page and items that are visible (above the fold) are not loaded and show a huge placeholder (bigger than the actual thumbnail) till you scroll past the items. Strange thing is that it doesn’t happen with the first item on the same row. So for example, my shop has 3 columns and multiple rows. row 1: images get loaded correctly (though the placeholder I probably need to choose with the same exact size as my thumbnails are shown on the front end since it’s still a bit ugly to first see a big placeholder, before you get the much smaller loaded thumbmail) row2, item 1: correct (like row 1) row2, item 2 and all other following items: not loaded, despite all being above the fold and clearly visible and at the same exact height as item 1 Please have a look at this as I expect it’s a bug that can be easily solved. Otherwise, nice plugin.
