Update activity
How busy the existing users are, measured as downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites. A spike means a new release everyone's pulling; a long, slow decline means an aging user base that updates less.
What its installed base runs
via wordpress.orgShare of active installs on each version of this plugin. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Estimated value
What this plugin might earn a year, and what it might sell for. Modeled from public signals; we don't see anyone's books.
Est. annual revenue
Est. acquisition value
No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from. A declining trend compresses what a buyer would pay.

I’ve setted the API key but when I fill the checkout page, the shipping cost didn’t get updated, only the product price. did I miss anything????

All the setting doesn’t seem to be working, if we set minimum or maximum it’s will always be catch. Also there’s a 404 for the .js file because it’s not the right name in the js/ folder. And this .js file is empty anyway.

First off, the “payment per distance” needs to be set at a negative value in order to function properly, so that threw me off. Secondly, The API function doesn’t work because there isn’t an origin address setting available. Without it, you could section out things by zip code, but not by radius (which is what my website requires for delivery). Granted, anything OUTSIDE the zip code parameters are denied, but I need something that includes a radius from the store location and this plugin doesn’t function properly to provide that solution. Add an origin address option in the settings menu to allow the API to function properly and this will work. Until then, 1 star.

I did install the plugin and added the API code. Then I tried several orders to check it. It did not work at all. Then I wait about one hour and suddenly it works perfect. I think google needs a while to activate the API. Please make correct settings at the woocommerce shipping zone. The shipping costs per km with “.” not “,” and all the fields above has to be filled.

Did everything I was supposed to, getting the API key, etc., but still cannot get this plugin to work. Others have the same problem as indicated in the support section, all of which have gone unanswered. Complete waste of time.

The plugin does what I need pretty well. Moreover, when I have a problem, I can easily contact the manager and have my problem entered. A very good plugin
