0.3%

of downloads still active

At least 20 of 7.8K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median Booking & Events plugin keeps 0.8%, across 941 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Booking & Events plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

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 5.3.27, well behind 6.8.

21 Nov 2026

Update activity

Downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites.

Not enough installs to measure. This needs at least 100 active sites; below that, a handful of downloads reads as tens of thousands.

Release cadence

No release in a year

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

    Using the latest version of WordPress. Link to the “set-up” settings is broken. Using the setup in the left bar, everytime I try to enter settings, it goes to a 404 page. I would give it one star but since the app has not been tested with 4.5.2 as of this writing, I’m giving the benefit of the doubt by giving two stars. Sorry to be a negative Nancy. Keep at it and create something great!
