High removal-risk signals
63/100Maintenance 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 7+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
- Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 5.2.26, 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.
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.

I can’t believe I’ve not used this plugin before! As opposed to other admin menu organizing plugins that often feel bloated with unecessary options, this one is simple, clean and does the job with ease!

This plugin has helped me resolve this nightmare I had for years where plugins clutter the admin rather than using the settings menu. Now my admin is mint and I cannot thank the developer enough for this excellent gem. Hope it is updated for posterity or adopted in the core.

Not only this plugin “cleans” the backsite menu, whatever menu items you move, it puts them in one nicely formatted page, which makes everything easy to look, and easy to navigate. THE CORE DEVELOPERS SHOULD HAVE A LOOK AT THIS ! This topic was modified 6 years, 11 months ago by nick6352683. This topic was modified 6 years, 11 months ago by nick6352683.
