Biggest opportunity: Add “name” and “minimum price” to your wp.org tags. You rank #13 and #17 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.

How it's measured →1.8%
of downloads still active
At least 500 of 27.6K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median eCommerce plugin keeps 1.4%, across 5,169 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 2 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.

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.
| Keyword | wp.org | On merit | wp.org move, 90 days |
|---|---|---|---|
| name your price your tag | #4 | #13 | up 1 |
| flexible pricing your tag | #8 | #20 | 0 |

What to do about it
- Add “name” and “minimum price” to your wp.org tags. You rank #13 and #17 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.
- One page off on “minimum purchase”. #14 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.

I never leave reviews but here goes. I had an issue with being unable to hide the price from the shop display. I contacted the support through the wp support forum. I’m super impressed in less than a week they created a new version of the plugin with the changes needed. As well as helped me a css code to make a sentence appear on a new line. Another reason I gravitated towards this plugin was the fact that they seem to recently update it (unlike other versions). Keep it up

This plugin is fairly easy to set up and get running. When I had a query, the support team answered me within 24 hours and were able to help straight away. Much appreciated. I use this to share downloadable resources on my campaign site in exchange for donations and it seamlessly works with WooCommerce for my regularly priced items.

On the Single Product page, it works just fine. However, when when trying to add the same product from the Shop page or category page, it says “Custom Price is a required field.” Therefore, the product can not be added. Using WordPress 6.2.2, Twenty-Twenty-One theme, no other plugins enabled.

My whole page setup of the product is gone, after activating this plugin. I do see the option to fill in your own price. But since the page is all messed up, I have to delete the plugin and find another one.
