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 8+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
  • Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 4.9.31, 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

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.

    Being able to make it compatible with Buddypress and that in turn the projects can be used within the groups seems to me to give a new dimension to the collaborative task, since it adds the option to edit in the frontend and also use all the possibilities of Buddypress for user management. For me it is an essential plugin. This topic was modified 6 years, 10 months ago by Gonzalone.

    Hi, thanks for this plugin. I am using this plugin with buddypress. Its working good for me. Due date for task is not there, hence i have customised the code. Now i can use due date while task creation and task assignment. Attachment facility is not there in task comment. Is there any solution?

    The plugin doesn’t work. It was installed based on the guidelines of the documentation and it didn’t provide the functions it should have provided. I was not able to create any projects. I didn’t even get to the task functions. The error seem to be based on bugs but due to lack of support, I am not able to use the theme as well. – review rating changed after issue resolution This topic was modified 9 years, 3 months ago by youngheearts.
