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 6+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
  • Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 5.3.23, 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.

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.

    Non-existent support! No response on the support page whatsoever. I even tried to contact them by email but emails are not deliverable.

    Hosted Stripe Checkout is important because it is guaranteed to work with 3D Secure and SCA. My interest is in Stripe Connect which can be very complicated. This plugin gives me a great base for integrating Stripe Connect into WooCommerce. Constructive Suggestion Put a link on the setting page with details of the URL to be used as the webhook in the Stripe configuration. There should also be a link to the Webhooks setting page on the Stripe dashboard.(updated 2020-07-05 after moderator removed link) This is a good idea because the user will not have to refer back to the installation instructions.
