Biggest opportunity: Swap “print”, “woocommerce” and “barcode” for “qr”, “qr codes” and “coupon code”. “print” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “qr” sits at #6 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. “qr codes” sits at #6 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “barcode” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #24. “coupon code” sits at #17 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

How it's measured →4.0%
of downloads still active
At least 900 of 22.3K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median eCommerce plugin keeps 1.4%, across 5,150 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.

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.

What to do about it
- Swap “print”, “woocommerce” and “barcode” for “qr”, “qr codes” and “coupon code”. “print” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “qr” sits at #6 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. “qr codes” sits at #6 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “barcode” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #24. “coupon code” sits at #17 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.
- Slipping on “barcode”. Down 6 places since 2026-09-23, now #24. Check what shipped around then, and what moved above you.

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.
What its installed base runs
via wordpress.orgShare of active installs on each version of this plugin. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.
Estimated active installs
The public count shows “900+”. Our estimate pins where the real number sits.
Crossed into this band yesterday and a band this size takes about a year or more to cross, so the real count is still just under 1K.

This really came in handy when we went to a trade show and needed to have a way for customers to scan the products they wanted.
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ Samuel Speed5.9y ago
Firstly, this plugin is awesome! I am using this plugin in my company as part of our stock management system. The QR plugin allows for simple and variant products to each produce their own unique QR codes, which can then be generated into PDF format and printed. If you’re like me and use label printers, the PDF’s that are generated are perfect as they can be sent straight to the label printer and automatically resize themselves ready for print. I then use these labels out in our warehouse to inform colleagues of what stock we have out there, and they can use their mobile phones to scan the QR codes to find any additional details without needing to come back into the offices. The developer (Gangesh Matta) is a good person. He has worked with me to implement some great changes along the way and the changes have all been carried out very quickly, very professionally and he has always been able to build or develop whatever has been requested. He is unlike a lot of the other plugin developers on this platform and you can tell he cares about his plugin and the people that use it and I have a huge amount of respect for that. I look forward to seeing what changes this plugin goes through in the future and know that Gangesh is currently working on a number of changes that will add even more functionality to this already amazing plugin. I really can’t thank you enough. And if you’re wondering whether to get this plugin as a solution to you barcodes/QR code requirements, then I cannot stress enough – Download and use this plugin! You will not be disappointed!
