Biggest opportunity: Add “add to cart button text”, “custom add to cart button” and “cart button text” to your wp.org tags. You rank #4, #7 and #8 for them without listing them, close enough for a declared tag to move you up. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so with 4 listed these are the slots worth spending.

5.3%

of downloads still active

At least 9K of 171K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median eCommerce plugin keeps 1.4%, across 5,160 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 1 release 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.

    I was looking simply to change the default button text for the Buy button, but this is even better since it allows different button text depending on simple product, product with variations, or external product. Thank you!
