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.

Release cadence

Occasionally updated
from wp.org release tags

How 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. acquisition value

N/A

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.

    If a user subscribes to the contact form 7 form with this plugin, they will be added to the list, but their status will not be automatically confirmed. “Double-opt-In” is turned off, meaning they do not have to confirm their unsubscribe, but the user will still not be active. Is there another setting that I missed, or is the plugin unable to make the user an active subscriber immediately?

    Hi, I improved the validate and add_subscriber function in classes/contactform.class.php to allow contact from7 to display more errors from mailster instead of just error messages for duplicate subscribers. public function validate( $result, $tags ) { if ( ! $result->is_valid() ) { return $result; } if ( ! function_exists( 'mailster' ) ) { return $result; } $submission = WPCF7_Submission::get_instance(); if ( ! $submission || ! $posted_data = $submission->get_posted_data() ) { return $result; } $form = WPCF7_ContactForm::get_current(); $properties = $form->get_properties(); // no Mailster settings if ( ! isset( $properties['mailster'] ) ) { return $result; } $properties = $properties['mailster']; // not enabled if ( ! $properties['enabled'] ) { return $result; } // checkbox defined but not checked if ( isset( $properties['checkbox'] ) && $properties['checkbox'] && empty( $posted_data[ $properties['checkboxfield'] ][0] ) ) { return $result; } $this->userdata = array(); $tag_keys = array_flip( array_filter( wp_list_pluck( $tags, 'name' ) ) ); foreach ( $properties['fields'] as $field => $tag ) { $this->userdata[ $field ] = is_array( $posted_data[ $tag ] ) ? $posted_data[ $tag ][0] : $posted_data[ $tag ]; } $this->userdata['status'] = $properties['doubleoptin'] ? 0 : 1; if ( isset( $properties['gdpr_timestamp'] ) && $properties['gdpr_timestamp'] ) { $this->userdata['gdpr'] = time(); } $this->userdata = apply_filters( 'mailster_verify_subscriber', $this->userdata ); if ( is_wp_error( $this->userdata ) ) { $result->invalidate( $tags[ $tag_keys[ $properties['fields'][ $this->userdata->get_error_code() ] ] ], $this->userdata->get_error_message() ); return $result; } $overwrite = $properties['overwrite']; if ( ! $overwrite && mailster( 'subscribers' )->get_by_mail( $this->userdata['email'] ) ) { $error_message = isset( $properties['error_message'] ) ? $properties['error_message'] : __( 'You are already registered!', 'mailster-cf7' ); $result->invalidate( $tags[ $tag_keys[ $properties['fields']['email'] ] ], $error_message ); return $result; } //new add+ $add_message= $this->add_subscriber(null); if(!empty($add_message)) { $result->invalidate( $tags[ $tag_keys[ $properties['fields']['email'] ] ], $add_message ); return $result; }// add_action( 'wpcf7_mail_sent', array( $this, 'add_subscriber' ) ); return $result; } /** * * * @param unknown $contact_form */ public function add_subscriber( $contact_form ) { $form = WPCF7_ContactForm::get_current(); $properties = $form->get_properties(); $properties = $properties['mailster']; $list_ids = isset( $properties['lists'] ) ?
