High removal-risk signals
63/100Maintenance 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 11+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
- Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 4.1.42, well behind 6.8.
Directory ranking optimization

Biggest win: Update recency
To rank higher: Last updated 4224 days ago — ship an update; wp.org decays a listing's search weight after ~180 days.

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.
What its installed base runs
via wordpress.orgShare of active installs on each version of this plugin · 100% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.
Estimated active installs
The public count shows “30+”. Our estimate pins where the real number sits.

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
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.

Thank you Riccardo for this great plugin, the only one dedicated to comments vote! I installed it; when I up or downvote a comment the thumbs seem frozen and my vote is not saved. I changed the configuration: same result. Could you please fix?

Nice thing. Could you offer this plugin with the possibility to deactivate the dislike button, please?

Breaks the Custom Smilies plugin. I would also rather have the thumbs as buttons next to each other without the box.

Works as promised, no tricks and “buy blah spam” Ratings placement is a bit unusual (before the comment) but I started to like it. Thank you.

It would be way better if it was on the side of the comment, and not on top, but great job, you’re the only one I’ve found who got it right
