53/100

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 5+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
  • Falling behind WordPress. Tested up to WordPress 5.7.17.

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.

    It works perfectly. I use it on all of my sites with no problems. It hasn’t been updated in quite a while, but it’s simple and it just works.

    Just installed plugin Nov 2022, and though it installs and looks operational, it does exactly nothing as far as I can tell. Using WordPress 6.1.1. Too bad — I really could use this shortcut plug-in for a cumbersome CSS task! This topic was modified 3 years, 7 months ago by tompaq. This topic was modified 3 years, 7 months ago by tompaq.

    I’d just like to echo what others have said. This plugin just works (whereas others promising the same, don’t seem to). If your theme doesn’t have this functionality built in, I’d recommend this as an essential install.

    Using WordPress 5.7.2 with the Twenty-Twenty theme, I can use the plugin and it does work but does not reclaim any of the vertical screen real-estate that the H1 tag takes up, so the net effect is the same as just editing the title to “” and not having the plugin at all. Of course this may work better with a different theme.
