High removal-risk signals
63/100Maintenance 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 11+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
- Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 4.1.42, 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.
Release cadence
No release in a yearHow 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.

Great idea to implement Twig to WP!
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ NumberKruncher12.6y ago
One thing which I immediately changed when I installed this plugin into my website was the location of the Twig installation since I intend to use the composer module manager. I also modified the path of the “twigs” folder so that it is taken from the root of the website rather than the active theme folder. Agreed, this is counter-intuitive for the needs of most people, but my reasoning will be explained in a moment. Here is the directory structure which I decided go with: /httpdocs/blog/wp-content/plugins/twigpress/* /httpdocs/blog/wp-content/themes/mytheme/* /httpdocs/vendor/twig/twig/lib/Twig /httpdocs/twigs One of the things which I like about using Twig in this way is that it allows me to reuse the same overall site templates outside of WordPress. My website makes use of several separate systems which previously had their own separate themes/templates/skins. Twig allows me to define one master layout which each of these systems can easily share for one consistent look throughout the entire website! Thanks!!
