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 5.1.24, 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.

    I was looking for a PWA plugin for a multisite installation. It had to be compatible with our push notifications plugin and I tried a quite a few before I came across this one. What a great find! An outstanding plugin, easy to setup with lots of very useful features. Many thanks and best wishes to the developers.

    有効期限やURLでの除外などキャッシュの細かなコントロールができます。 新着情報のリストやajaxでのデータ取得先のURLなどをキャッシュから除外することで、サイトの鮮度を保ちながらPWAの恩恵を受けることができる。
