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.

    you could transform it to shortcodes for it be able to be displayed even in the themes front-end, had to hack you plugin to do that in a dirty quick way, but the code is good and customizable

Nice plugin and thank you author for this.
