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 7+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
  • Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 5.0.27, 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

N/A

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. The recent download trend is too spiky to read.

    While using the Akita theme from ThemeBlvd, the Portfolios add on allows me to mix all of my blogs into a single instance while still treating them as separate. There are more ways to do that but the Portfolios allow me to do so much more on cross referencing, re-use and unified look-and-feel, that it is the best option for me. Wherever the Portfolios and my specific usage caused some limitation in 3rd party plugins, these were all solved with plugin updates or small tweaks on my side.

    I use the Jumpstart framework, and this plugin integrates perfectly.
