How it's measured →0.5%
of downloads still active
At least 80 of 15.2K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median eCommerce plugin keeps 1.4%, across 5,166 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 1 release 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| add product without backend your tag | #7 | #23 | down 1 |
| frontend submit product woocommerce your tag | #13 | #23 | 0 |
| add products frontend | #7 | #22 | up 1 |
| woocommerce add product frontend your tag | #22 | #23 | 0 |
| user submit product your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| woocommerce frontend form your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
7 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 4 listed. 3 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words). 2 of its tags aren't in the top 24 for their own search.
What to do about it
- One page off on “frontend submit product woocommerce”. #13 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.
- “user submit product” and “woocommerce frontend form” aren't earning a slot. You list them, but you're not in the first 24 results for those searches. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so free the slot for a search you can win.

Nice plugin
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ leyra5.0y ago
The plugin does its job by helping to load information for a store from the front of the page. Unfortunately, it does not work with the default templates that WordPress themes create, you have to use a blank page that is 100% blank. There is no use of menus, there is no footer, there are no logos, nor is there any way to use it with a shortcut [] In a very basic way, it does the job well, but if the pro version is the same only with extra functions, it ends up not being of much use in its handling and use.

Very Helpfull

It is easy to install, not too pretty though. It should be built with buddypress in mind so that the add product page can be added to the profile tabs. It is much better if you can provide a personalized user experience to this for every user or vendor in BP. We will need to customize this to make it work the way we need it to unless the creators have a work around this, in which case I would like to know.

Exactly what i was looking for. Graphic design isn’t the best but is simple and functional.

I purchased the premium version for the sole purpose of having the external/affiliate option as they indicate on their sale page. It’s NOT included! I even checked the code within the files. The only two options at the top are “simple” and “variable” … I would like to have what I paid for. Checked the “support” section to see if I could get some help… questions there are not being answered. Free version works, with extreme limits. Paid version doesn’t include what the say it includes.
