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
Actively maintainedHow 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
A large install base, a clear pro tier and a steady trend. As reliable as an outside estimate gets. The range spans more than 10x because wp.org publishes install counts as broad bands, and conversion and price compound on top. Read the midpoint as an order of magnitude, not a valuation.
How we estimate this
Assumptions
- Free → paid conversion. 0.5%–2% of active installs pay for the pro tier. Typical for freemium WordPress plugins; the real rate varies a lot by product.
- Annual price per customer. $39–$99 a year, typical for Blocks plugins rather than this plugin's own pricing.
- Acquisition multiple. 2.5x–4.5x annual revenue, the going range for small WordPress-plugin businesses, stretched a little because downloads are growing.
- Install base. 300K–400K active installs, from our install estimate (wp.org only publishes the floor).
Inputs

- 300K–400K

Revenue is installs × conversion × price; value is revenue × a typical acquisition multiple. Every factor is an assumption band, so the output is a wide range on purpose. If you're buying or selling, treat this as a starting point for due diligence.

Still no compatibility with WordPress 6.9 and Gutenberg API v3… 7 months later. “Block with API version 2 or lower is deprecated since version 6.9. Note: The block “themeisle-blocks/content-generator” is registered with API version 2. This means that the post editor may work as a non-iframe editor. Since all editors are planned to work as iframes in the future, set the apiVersion field to 3 and test the block inside the iframe editor.”

This was the only plugin I could find that allowed blog posts in a card format. I also like that shadows can be added to blocks.
