Biggest opportunity: Swap “order number” and “product number” for “upc” and “gtin”. “order number” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “upc” sits at #15 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “product number” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “gtin” sits at #18 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

2.4%

of downloads still active

At least 1K of 41.3K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Analytics plugin keeps 1.2%, across 1,007 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Analytics 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 10 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.

    I wish other plugin developers were as helpful and courteous as here. They changed their plugin to properly handle bin numbers, which uncovered a couple of bugs, they fixed all this in a couple of days. The plugin is well thought out in the way it works.

    I tried coding something similar for myself, and couldn’t get it to do exactly what I needed it to for an automation project. This plugin was able to solve my problem! Does exactly what it says it does, and does it well!

    Compliments to the Plugin author for developing a very useful plugin. It works perfectly fine. It also integrates with the default WooCommerce Product Import / Export functionality. The Product Code column is included in the Export CSV.
