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 8+ 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.

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.

    Does not work with actual version of Contact Form 7. It appears as a bare Internal Server Error when submitting the form, but behind the scenes it causes: Uncaught Error: Call to private method WPCF7_Submission::add_uploaded_file() from context '' in /wp-content/plugins/multifile-upload-field-for-contact-form-7/multifile-for-contact-form-7.php:249

    As you can see in the Forum, the plugin is deprecaded. But other plugins work well.

    Без лишнего кода, просто и удобно 🙂 Устанавливал аналог весь раскрасивый такой, глючил не по-детски при определенных задачах.

    Multiple deprecated warnings that have been pointed out in support form since a year ago. Also fatal error: Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Class ‘ZipArchive’ You should be able to turn this zip feature off.
