Biggest opportunity: Swap “woocommerce” for “viewer”. “woocommerce” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “viewer” sits at #4 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

of downloads still active
At least 9K of 220.4K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median eCommerce plugin keeps 1.4%, across 5,141 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other eCommerce plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
This plugin shipped 17 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

What to do about it
- Swap “woocommerce” for “viewer”. “woocommerce” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “viewer” sits at #4 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

The 3D Viewer plugin is an excellent tool — very powerful, easy to use, and perfect for displaying product designs in a clear and engaging way. The support team is also outstanding. They responded with incredible attention to detail, quickly and kindly providing precise solutions that resolved my issue right away. I am truly grateful for their professionalism and care. Highly recommended!

Installato per poter fare vedere i modelli 3d realizzati da rilievi con drone, non potevo farne a meno. Senza non avrei potuto farli vedere. Semplice da settare non ho trovato problemi nel farlo. Complimenti al/agli ideatori

Some have complained about having problems with STEP files. They should simply export the files as glb files. It’s effortless to do this and they upload and work easily. That’s no reason to give the plug-in a 1 star review. To be perfectly honest I would say the technical support could be improved, but the plug-in itself is superb.

I have been looking for a plugin to handle viewing 3D Model viewing for a client of mine. This plugin has been a great help in delivering on that functionality, and the free version offers the necessary capabilities to view and render our models effectively. The controls and perspective can be a little limited, but you walk away with the proper amount of functionality in my opinion. I haven’t tried the premium version and cannot speak to its efficacy, but the free version gets the job done for us. Kudos to the developers.

I chose this as it said it supported STEP files and is reported to work with Elementor. Elementor does not support STEP files so I have wasted a considerable amount of money, support has been non existent and will not reply to my emails.
