  • Long abandoned. No update in 13+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
  • Falling behind WordPress. Tested up to WordPress 6.0.14.

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. 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.

    While the plugin seems to be abandoned anyway, it’s worth noting for those interested in the idea that the main MP6 plugin now allows users to choose between several colour schemes via their user profile page — including a light one.

    The light skin works fine, except that the title of widget areas in the widget area of the backend is invisible. Switching to the light MP6 theme needs to include changing the font color for widget area titles.

    Does exactly what it says it does – something in the screenshots tab might be nice. 😉
