Biggest opportunity: Add “overwrite”, “generator” and “bulk generate” to your wp.org tags. You rank #5, #10 and #16 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.

of downloads still active
At least 10K of 201K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median eCommerce plugin keeps 1.4%, across 5,167 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 5 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.

It’s working well so far 🙂

Helped me to distinguish product SKUs on two sister websites that sell many of the same products, and to automatically generate SKUs for each brand going forward. Did it easily and efficiently.

I paid for a previous SKU generator plugin and it was horrible. Then I found this wonderful plugin and it was free. The plugin did exactly what it was supposed to do, no issues, problems or conflicts with other plugins. High recommend this plugin. It is truly a time saver!! Worked perfectly.
