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 5.3.23, 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.

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

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.

    It took me some major time to track down that it was THIS plugin, out of 76, that causes my block editor to crash 100% of the time. I’m quite upset about it, as I didn’t think this plugin could have anything to do with such problems. I use the latest Genesis Pro + Genesis theme, so perhaps avoid if you’re using Genesis, or perhaps even just the block editor…. Current date: 28 December 2022

    Great plugin, does exactly what it says it will do. Very easy to edit images and add your pinterest description. I wonder if it would be possible to have a meta title box to add a different tittle than the article title? Thank you!

    It does what it needs to do. I was looking for a plugin where I can add data-pin-description for pinterest and with this plugin I can do it. In the editor click on the img edit button then there you can find the inputs. Thanks for the plugin!
