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.

A must-have plugin to make Storefront’s blog archive acceptable.

Now the readers are forced to look at the page that it is on so they can leave comments. In the past, they would read an article and not know that they could comment. Thank you so much… Also makes the page nice and clean

There are probably a dozen plugins that do what this one does, except this one doesn’t require you to go in and edit all your posts. I use storefront, and I have a blog.I want people to be able to see a bunch of blog posts instead of getting bogged down in the first long-winded writing they come across. This does it, by itself, and doesn’t break anything else.

I’ve only had this installed for a couple of minutes and already I had to give a five-star review. As soon as you activate the plugin, it automatically changes the blog feed. Of course, you can configure it however you’d like, but it looks great on a mobile device with the pre-set adjustments. After spending almost all of yesterday trying to get a plugin to work (for a totally different purpose), this was a huge relief. Thank you!
