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

N/A

Est. acquisition value

N/A

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. The recent download trend is too spiky to read.

    Does not allow the insertion of captcha, tried three captcha plugins with the same result. The captcha’s do not show the equations just a form to guess in. The form isn’t given room to show the full captcha that works on other custom login tools. For the good part, the customisation forms a good, although, lengthy and could be made easier to manage on one page. It appears this plugin is at it’s early stage, but it mostly works.
