Release cadence

Occasionally updated

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

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. 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. The recent download trend is too spiky to read.

    Thank you for this plugin! Having to do quite a bit of custom code pointing at specific pages via id, it is nice to have my code in one browser window, with pages from WP Dashboard in another, so I can quickly ensure my IDs are correct! Thank you! This topic was modified 3 years, 10 months ago by Richard Benton G4WKW. Reason: typo

    I am using WP Show Post which allows you a lot of control using post id’s. This plugin makes life easy, adds post id to the posts lists. One of life’s essential backend plugins.

    I needed not just to see the post IDs, but to sort by them. Reveal IDs did it perfectly. Exactly what I needed.
