Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

WP PlugIndex currently records Website Recovery Importer version 1.2.5 as active, updated 22d ago and tested up to WordPress 7.1.
Overview
About this plugin
Website Recovery Importer takes a recovery package (a WXR file plus the site’s images) and imports it into your WordPress site. xml files, and a media/ folder).
Important: this plugin does not crawl or scrape the Wayback Machine itself. It imports a package that was prepared beforehand. It just does the WordPress side — reliably and safely.
What it does:
Bulk import in batches via AJAX, so large sites don’t hit PHP time or memory limits.
Everything as DRAFT by default — you review before anything goes live. It never auto-publishes.
Sanitizes third-party HTML with an explicit wp_kses allow-list — scripts, iframes and inline event handlers are stripped, regardless of your role.
Places the images and keeps the content pointing at them.
Rewrites internal links from the old domain to your site, for every host variant (http/https, with/without www).
Page vs post respected from the package, with a switch to force everything to Pages or Posts.
Idempotent — re-importing the same package updates instead of duplicating (stable per-page identity).
Two ways in — upload the package as a ZIP, or drop it by FTP into wp-content/uploads/tesora-import/.
The content comes from third parties (archived pages). Review copyright, trademarks and content before publishing. You use it at your own responsibility — which is exactly why everything lands as a draft.
