High removal-risk signals
63/100Maintenance 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 10+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
- Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 4.4.34, 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.
Release cadence
No release in a yearHow 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
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.

Using it with WP 5.1.x

This plugin works just fine with WP 4.9.7. this one is more useful than “PAGE edit toolbar” (which is good too)

I thinks it would be nicer if: 1) the drop down list is scrollable – currently the list can be as long as it extends to the bottom of your screen, but there is no way to scroll down it any further ( I have change the number of posts/pages to display); 2) a search box is added to the top of the list, so that one can search posts or pages in respective lists. Thanks!
