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
No release in a yearHow 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. annual revenue
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.

Exactly what I was looking for. The ability to download images from the media library with a simple download button. Worked as expected

Allows both downloading of individual media library items or the whole media library as a ZIP file. Simple plugin that works.

Hyper pratique quand on cherche à récupérer les médias en masse de façon rapide! très facile d’utilisation, bravo aux concepteurs!

The download feature is OK. You must click each individual image. You can’t do a bulk select and click a few at once for DL. But otherwise seems to work OK. This topic was modified 3 years, 6 months ago by Company 50.

If you can’t download media in bulk, the plugin is useless at all (you can download each image opening it and saving it on your computer).
