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.
What its installed base runs
via wordpress.orgShare of active installs on each version of this plugin · 61% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.
Estimated active installs
The public count shows “8K+”. Our estimate pins where the real number sits.

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
A small install base leaves thin data to model from. The range spans more than 10x because wp.org publishes install counts as broad bands, and conversion and price compound on top. Read the midpoint as an order of magnitude, not a valuation.
How we estimate this
Assumptions
- Free → paid conversion. 0.5%–2% of active installs pay for the pro tier. Typical for freemium WordPress plugins; the real rate varies a lot by product.
- Annual price per customer. $39–$99 a year, typical for Media plugins rather than this plugin's own pricing.
- Acquisition multiple. 2.5x–4.5x annual revenue, the going range for small WordPress-plugin businesses, stretched a little because downloads are growing.
- Install base. 8K–9K active installs, from our install estimate (wp.org only publishes the floor).
Inputs
- Active installs
- 8K–9K
- Category
- Media
- Pro tier
- detected ("Lite" naming, the free tier of a paid product)
- Download trend
- growing (30d downloads up vs prior 30d)

Revenue is installs × conversion × price; value is revenue × a typical acquisition multiple. Every factor is an assumption band, so the output is a wide range on purpose. If you're buying or selling, treat this as a starting point for due diligence.

Seriously simple and seriously amazing! Like anything… there is a learning curve BUT so much better than other video slider plugins…. At the moment my need is very simple but if I had more complex needs, I would definitely consider buying the pro version of this plugin!!!

Everything is fine, but tell me how to align the slider to the left and right. It is centered and I can’t do anything in the settings. Padding doesn’t work, only reduces it.

I’m using the free version of this slider on all the posts of my professionnal photography website. I needed a lightbox for the pictures of the slider, and this one works perfectly. Really nice and cool. A potential improvement could be brought by automating the link of the image adress in the slider.

Boa tarde a todos. Eu comecei a usar esse plugim que estava funcionando perfeitamente, mas por algum motivo, as imagens deixaram de aparecer. Está faltando atualização com essa solução. Mesmo assim dei 3 estrelas porque gostei muito desse plugin antes do problema.
