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

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 declining trend compresses what a buyer would pay.

    Super easy to use. My main problem with footer and header just disappeared. It’s not clunky or not heavy at all. Highly recommended. Thank you very much.

    Excellent plugin. Simple to use, lightweight, and works exactly as expected. It helped me add custom code to my website without modifying theme files. Highly recommended.
