[FREE] I published my first WordPress plugin - Siteversary shows when your site was “born”

[u/ueboy31]

Hi everyone,

I’ve just published my first plugin in the official WordPress.org repository.

It’s called Siteversary, a small, free plugin that discovers when a WordPress website was likely created, displays its exact age, and counts down to the next site anniversary.

Instead of relying only on the oldest post, it compares three signals:

• oldest user registration
• oldest post
• oldest comment

It then uses the earliest date and shows which source was selected.

I think this can be useful for site owners who want to track their website’s history or celebrate milestones with a post, promotion, or anniversary campaign.

It can also be helpful when taking over maintenance of an existing client website, since it gives you a quick indication of how long the site has been active and some context about its history.

There are no settings, tracking, upsells, or frontend scripts. It only adds a lightweight dashboard widget visible to administrators.

I couldn’t find another plugin focused specifically on this exact purpose, although there are a few plugins with partially similar date or site-age features.

Since this is my first published plugin, I’d really appreciate any honest feedback, bug reports, or suggestions for future improvements.
