Biggest opportunity: Swap “restaurant menu”, “food menu” and “food order” for “ordering system”, “table reservations” and “ordering”. “restaurant menu” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #19. “ordering system” sits at #10 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “food menu” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #18. “table reservations” sits at #13 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “food order” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #16. “ordering” sits at #15 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

of downloads still active
At least 7K of 351.9K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Admin & Utilities plugin keeps 0.6%, across 4,189 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Admin & Utilities plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

What to do about it
- Swap “restaurant menu”, “food menu” and “food order” for “ordering system”, “table reservations” and “ordering”. “restaurant menu” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #19. “ordering system” sits at #10 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “food menu” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #18. “table reservations” sits at #13 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “food order” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #16. “ordering” sits at #15 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.
- One page off on “food order”. #16 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.
- One page off on “restaurant reservation”. #16 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.

This seemed like such a wonderful plugin and I suffered through page after page of setup info, when all I really needed – to begin with – was a reservations plugin. Adding this requirement for “legal entity name” and “tax identification” is simply OVERREACH of the worst product design I’ve ever seen in any WordPress plugin – in 15 years of web design work. Their online support has no idea why this is required, but stated it’s required even for simply reservations. I tried adding just the reservations shortcode and it pulls up all ORACLE terms. More overreach and over-complexity. This isn’t an ERP system, it’s not JDEdwards or Workday or Oracle eBusiness suite. Time for a new product leader.

It’s just an iframe actually loading and too expensive to pay it every month…. I am thinking in switching to WooFood plugin which is one-time and selfhosted and you can use any payment gateway you want from WooCommerce
