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 10+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
  • Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 4.6.30, 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

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.

    THIS PLUGIN IS SIMPLE AND PERFECT THAT THE AUTHOR HAS NOT NEED TO UPDATE ANYTHING SINCE LAST 4 YEARS. I had to create an account just to give this plugin a 5-star rating and let people know that it works perfectly. I was looking for something to prevent users from concurently login and found this plugin. However, the age of this plugin and the number of active installation (1000+ at this time) made me skip it. The information that this plugin was updated 4 years ago further drove me away. I decided to install another plugin, which made me crazy because it kept log me out every couple minutes. Then I removed the mentioned plugin and gave this plugin a try, and it works as much as I expect.
