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
Occasionally updatedHow 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.

I don’t like Gutenberg but since it seems to be here to stay, one has to adapt. Exporting and importing a full widget built with several blocks seems to be not possible. This plugin solves that problem. Thank you very much!

There was a problem importing the .wie file. Used the alternative, copy/paste and that worked.
