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 11+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
  • Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 4.1.42, 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.

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

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.

    I was able to crosspost to livejournal one by one my latest 10 entries. Then I found the crosspost all old entries. But since I have almost 200, it timed out and only like my earliest 1/3 of them were crossposted. The rest must be done manually. I’m a programmer too by the way. It’s possible that that problem I can help resolve (depends on my level of time and motivation of course). I saw that you have a code.google.com with the code base, I haven’t looked at it yet though.

    Earlier in the evening, I had a hairy experience with another crossposting plugin. One that nearly took down my site. Then, installing this one, I didn’t have high expectations. But I did, and started to work with it immediately. This plugin posted my blogs with the correct annotations. I would have preferred they were at the bottom of the post, rather than the top, but whatever. Posting and updating posts worked flawlessly. It really does sound like the author of this one listened to the feedback he was getting, and built a better piece of software. Kudos on a job well done!

    Post settings doesn’t work – only default are applied, custom works only after post edit. NextGen single images doesn’t work at all. Doesn’t post anything with tags. NO SUPPORT at all 🙁 I have to fix every crosspost manually. It’s not adequate at all.

    It crosspost fine in simple case – create new post and publish. But if you want to update post, be careful. When you update post in WordPress, it appears in LJ RSS at top again. Even if you disable to crosspost current post, it still visible on the top of LJ RSS after editing and saving in WP. It looks the only option is to disable plugin at all in such cases
