3.9%

of downloads still active

At least 10K of 255.9K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median eCommerce plugin keeps 1.4%, across 5,168 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 4 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.

    In my opinion, this plugin is no longer supported. It currently throws errors and is not usable with an up-to-date WooCommerce setup.I posted a question in the support forum and received no reply, which strongly suggests that development and support have been abandoned.

    i don’t give 5 stars because this plugin is not compatible with Discount Rules Core Plugin by Flycart. The stores i manage are in the need of the use of plugins like this and with Acowebs plugin i can’t use the {salepercentage} option to display dynamic sale percenatages. The problem is the {salepercentage} funtion makes the call (im not sure) from the native WP funtion to display the old price and set a new one (just as the native works) and also the different Discount Rules Core plugins works like this but the Acowebs plugin can’t detect this. This Badges plugins is so good, i love it but there are many stores that needs to make multiple discount rules and sales like a 20 perfumes on sale, divided on categories with different discounts, so i need to create like 4 or 5 badges to and set all products on list to display one badge and other 4 – 5 badges to set manually a “10, 15, 20, 30, 40% OFF” badge for each group.

    The plugin makes it easier to label products. I suggest adding customization options for labels, such as: Applying labels to specific products. Adding effects to labels to enhance CTA for certain products. For example, sticky products could have animated labels to grab attention. Supporting multiple labels per product. For instance, some products may only be available for sale or discounted between January-March and May-August, so pre-set labels for these periods would be useful. These features could be included in a premium version! I believe many sellers would find them valuable!

    Many thanks for this hassle-free plugin. It worked straight away without any problems. I just wish there were responsive options to adjust the padding, as my design varies on mobile and the banner are a little out of place.

    This is really a good plugin, with multiple options for to assist with selling and to have different presentations at the same time – even the free version has so much. We had a small issue with badges not displaying correctly on the Product Archive page, we raised a Ticket to escalate to the Acowebs Tech Support. They investigated, identified the problem and resolved the issue very quickly. Update – The Technical Support Team promptly invesitgated an issue with the Product Badge sizing and amended coding to make the badge display correctly. 18.06.26 This topic was modified 4 weeks ago by breakingnewground123.
