Biggest opportunity: Swap “pricing” and “woocommerce” for “diamonds” and “based”. “pricing” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “diamonds” sits at #5 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “woocommerce” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “based” sits at #16 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

2.1%

of downloads still active

At least 300 of 14.1K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median eCommerce plugin keeps 1.4%, across 5,164 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 19 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.

Ranked about #10,100 to #11,100, alongside the other plugins at 300+ installs. Plugins with the same install count swap places between wp.org requests, so this is where most of them sit. Checked monthly, last on 1 Nov 2026.

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.

    I needed a plugin that would allow me to add a global price per 1 gram of gold and then just use the product weight to calculate the price automatically. Works exactly as expected, no issues at all. I reached out to the developer as I needed help with having this work with variable products and he customized the plugin to work as I needed. Super fast and amazing support, will be working with him on other custom plugins! Thanks again!
