Simple Log Viewer

by Pedro Avelar · Uncategorized

A simple plugin to log errors in real time in a metabox in the admin panel, too integrated with WP-CLI

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

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. A declining trend compresses what a buyer would pay.

    Constantemente temos erros que precisamos ficar vasculhando, esse tipo de solução nos um ótimo suporte. Um ótimo avanço pra essa ferramenta seria conseguirmos mapear alguns tipos de erros e ser notificados, temos as vezes casos de sites que ficam dias fora do ar até alguém perceber e notificar, receber um email por exemplo desse tipo de erro poderia melhorar o suporte, ainda mais quando o site faz vendas.

    Thanks for this plugin. I was looking for something simple just to deal with some error message. But without the need to install a plugin that has many features. Simple and direct. I hope for more plugins with a simpler approach. Thanks, nice work.
