Latest changelog entry
- Update: Marked as compatible with WordPress version 7.2
- Update: Required PHP version increased up to 8.2
- Fix: Multisite: only the first 100 sites of a network were processed when a role change was applied to all sites of the network and when plugin data was cleaned up on uninstall, as get_sites() (used by URE_Base_Lib::get_blog_ids() since version 4.66) returns 100 sites max by default.

Where this page's numbers come from
Read from the WordPress.org plugin API on , when WordPress 7.1.4 was the current release. WordPress.org rounds active installs into buckets. These are the directory's figures, not my verdict, and I haven't tested this plugin.
