Biggest opportunity: “add to cart”, “add to cart button” and “ajax add to cart button” aren't earning a slot. You list them, but you're not in the first 24 results for those searches. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so free the slot for a search you can win.

of downloads still active
At least 600 of 66.9K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median eCommerce plugin keeps 1.4%, across 5,178 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.

wp.org is where the directory puts the plugin for that search. On merit is where it would sit if results were ranked on rating, support and updates, without the install boost. The last column is how far the wp.org position moved, from our first reading in the last 90 days to the latest.

Release cadence

Looked promising but NO buttons show up on my shop page no matter what plugin settings I try. I have a heavily modified Twenty Twenty child theme running lots of different plugins and no time to troubleshoot this by disabling plugins one-by-one.

Danach hatte ich lange gesucht und bin hier endlich fündig geworden. Das Plugin bietet alle erdenklichen Möglichkeiten, den “In den Warenkorb” zu gestalten. Das Highlight sind die Warte- und Erledigt-Animationen. Auch der Support ist super, erst hatte ich ein Darstellungsproblem, der Entwickler hat es in kurzer Zeit gelöst. Besser geht es nicht! I had been looking for it for a long time and finally found it here. The plugin offers all imaginable possibilities to design the “Add to Cart”. The highlight are the waiting and done animations. Also the support is great, first I had a display problem, the developer solved it in a short time. It doesn’t get any better than this!

After hours of trying different solutions, this was by far the easiest way to deal with the button formatting

The plugin works fine on product pages, I have a theme that displays add to cart buttons on category pages and this plugin does not override that. Overall I am happy. The font on the admin page of the plugin is very tiny and hard to read sometimes. This topic was modified 7 years, 1 month ago by Jan Dembowski. Reason: Removed link, please do not post those here

It’s currently not tested for the version of WordPress I have installed, whether thats the issue or not I don’t know. But I fiddled around with this and it made absolutely no changes what so ever.
