  • Long abandoned. No update in 5+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
  • Falling behind WordPress. Tested up to WordPress 5.6.19.

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.

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.

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. The recent download trend is too spiky to read.

    It works fine, but you have to realise that it only fetches simple data. HTML or images are not parsed. A pity, since I would like to use it as a simple price comparison table (with affiliate links etc). I’ll unse the more extensive TablePress plugin (with lots of extensions…) inbstead.

    There are many people who don’t care for Gutenberg or Block Editors we use Classic and need a way to embed sheets. But again another plugin that has no clear info as to it ONLY works with Blocks

    This plugin synchronizes the web page with Google spreadsheet at real time. Setup of Google side is messy but detailed instruction plus video made it easy. Great works.
