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 7+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
  • Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 5.0.0, well behind 6.8.

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.

    I am a newb to event tracking, but I do use analytics and I have a G analytics plugin working. So do I just install this plugin and wait for something to magically appear on over on Analytics in the event area? I started using another plugin that does clicks, so I was happily surprised to see that it magically started tracking individual outbound link clicks, so is this plugin kind of like that too? Or should I be jamming code in weird places? Yours Newb-ly, Dave

    So simple and easy to set up and start tracking event in Google Analytics. Also very easy to use with Google Tag Manager to build some powerful tags.
