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 4+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
  • Falling behind WordPress. Tested up to WordPress 5.9.16.

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.

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.

low confidence

Est. annual revenue

≈$53 range $16–$180

Est. acquisition value

≈$180 range $40–$810

A small install base leaves thin data to model from. 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 Media 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. 80–90 active installs, from our install estimate (wp.org only publishes the floor).

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.

    portfolio-manager-lite/classes/otw_pm_dispatcher.php on line 144 Error muy típico en este plugin y sigue sin resolverse. Se puede ver en todas la webs donde se ha tratado de utilizar dicho plugin. Errores a lo bestia. Una Solución porfavor!! O arreglenlo que va siendo hora. Dejar las cosas a medias da reconocimiento de chapucero no de profesional. (No linka con la imagen al hacer click sobre ella.) Sale dicho error.

    The free version works great for me, easy to install and to implement. The pro version has more choice and when it is available I think I will buy it. For displaying a portfolio in images or slider on a time line or in grid works great. I recommend this.
