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.

Not sure how to use the plugin. Not sure how to select the correct uploaded image???

Poor support from the developer. I have paid for the Pro version but here isn’t any contact details provided. The only way to request support is through the WordPress forum.

ReFlex gallery has a simple, clean interface that is very easy to use. It is absolutely the best gallery plugin. I recommend upgrading to the $10 Pro version for the best results.

So the idea itself is not bad, but there is plenty of cons… 1. Cannot add few images at once, idea of gallery is to have possibility to add many images at once, not to sit on one album for hour, 2. Gallery as popup – just no, 3. No list of images for user, 4. Not much options, 5. No Templates. I saw, that there is also a PRO version, but after looking at this, i’m pretty worried, that i it would be a waste of money… sorry but this is not something that i would recommend to anyone with a clear conscience.

Developer apparently has no interest in resolving, and even prematurely closes The ticket without taking action, for a problem that is occurring to several users.

I searched many but only found this which can change the image in popup after clicking the thumbnail image. great plugin simply a life saver. 🙂 Thanks to the Development Team

This gallery plugin only displays a single image on a desktop view screen and then launches the actual gallery (with the rest of the thumbnails) into a popup window. Not at all what I was expecting, but exactly what it is supposed to do. Pretty disappointed, but my own fault for not reading through all of the support issues first.

I was really liking the appearance on the screenshots, but when I installed it I have been disappointed by the animation on the opening thickbox… Why not just a static thickbox appearing when the image is loaded ???
