Biggest opportunity: “e commerce”, “orders” and “payment” 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.

How it's measured →2.1%
of downloads still active
At least 500 of 24.3K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Payments plugin keeps 1.0%, across 1,043 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Payments 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 3 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.

How it's tracked →Directory searches this plugin turns up in, and which way each one is moving. WordPress.org publishes no history of search positions, so this starts the day we first tracked a keyword and never backfills.
Not enough tracked days yet to call a direction. Momentum needs at least three keywords measured a week or more apart.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| e commerce your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| orders your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| payment your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| payment gateway your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| woocommerce your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
3 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 0 listed. 3 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words). 5 of its tags aren't in the top 24 for their own search.
What to do about it
- “e commerce”, “orders” and “payment” 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.

Estimated active installs

Crossed into this band 24 days ago and a band this size takes about a year or more to cross, so the real count is still just over 500.

Le support ne répond qu’au téléphone (surtaxé). Par e-mail ou via le support officiel vous n’aurez pas de réponse. Le système comporte de nombreux bugs. Si vous êtes un peu développeur, vous pourrez corriger vous-même. Sinon, tournez-vous vers une autre solution. Pour le paiement sur WooCommerce, il y a d’autres solutions (et notamment des gens plus compétants). This topic was modified 9 years, 2 months ago by Mickaël Gris.
