of downloads still active
At least 10K of 359.1K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,778 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Uncategorized 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 3 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
- Your five tags are all earning their place. Each gets you onto page 1 of its own search, so none is worth giving up. “currencies”, “currency conversion” and “coinmarketcap” (#5, #5 and #7 untagged) would be the next worth testing if a slot frees up.

All reviews on wp.org ↗- ★★★★★ Pat K1.3y ago
I installed this plugin several years ago and it has worked very well; it’s highly customizable and has reliably and consistently returned accurate currency conversions. I think the reason I’ve never reviewed it is because it just works quietly in the background – and until recently – has never posed a problem; e.g., when running updates. I will preface my comments regarding support by saying I’m not usually a fan of plugins that don’t offer active support directly in the WP plugin support forum; requiring me to create an account elsewhere to get assistance. That said, this plugin did require me to create a support account on the developer’s site BUT the developer more than made up for this by sticking with the problem until they were able to implement a fix. I’m very satisfied with the plugin and the support the developer provided – all free of charge. Definitely a 5 star rating.

I had to go trough 7 plugins before I found out this one. Plugin configuration is so simple, straightforward and lightweight. It ‘s simple to work with and does exactly what I needed. Thank you for Best Free Plugin Currency Switcher for WooCommerce. I’ll be taking a look to the pro version for future requirements. Excellent job of the developers. Highly recommended!

My other plugin was unable to apply currency conversion to the free shipping amount. This plugin did that too. Keep up the good work.

I tried other 2 plugins (with many good reviews) but didn’t turn out well. Until i tried your plugin, worked quite well. No issue so far. Question: in the JS and PHP code, how to check which currency is currently active? thanks This topic was modified 4 years, 2 months ago by hiheaven01.

I wasn’t sure at first, but..this just works as it should.

the switcher works great, it offers different appearances (drop down menu of the currencies, radio buttons or links). I was able to also integrate it into a main menu of WP (with an additional tweak). The switcher is intelligently done (regarding all imaginable options) and has also a good and clear documentation (see their website, not here in the wordpress forum!). The only thing I would wish is to have an easier visual customisation for colours and text, for the way the switcher appears and integrates in other WP menus; perhaps with some kind of selector (to mostly avoid CSS coding).
