Removal-risk signals

53/100

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 3+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
  • Falling behind WordPress. Tested up to WordPress 6.1.12.

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. annual revenue

N/A

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.

    Pros: Works as intended except for speed Cons: 1. Wish there was a way to control marquee groups to go left or right 2. Wish there was a way to change the order of images loaded for each group (drag and drop feature) 3. Changed speed to 1 for group1 and speed 5 to group 2. Group2 does not move faster than group1. They are both the same speed.
