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 9+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
  • Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 4.7.35, 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.

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.

    This plugin messes up the wp-admin edit pages: – Many of the page features disappear (e.g.- excerpt, slug, sharing button, Yeost SEO edit boxes) – Screen Options tab on the top will not open, so I can’t reach the settings to turn page features on/off. – A box shows up at the bottom of the sidebar for Mobile Featured Image, but there is no way to select an image – no link. In short, not only does this not allow me to add a smaller featured image for mobile, but it destroys a lot of the other WordPress admin page functionality. I would love to use this for faster mobile page loads, but it is unusable!
