Biggest opportunity: “instagram”, “social commerce” and “social media” 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.

of downloads still active

At least 2K of 143.9K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Social plugin keeps 0.5%, across 1,276 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Social plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

    The main issue I have with this plugin is an annoying promo bar asking me to leave a review. I tried to close that, but for some reason I get it again and again.

    Issues on SNAPPPTs end result in feeds not populating. Contacted them and was told they will look in to it, been a week. No one has looked in to it. I’m not the only one with issues regarding their broken service and no support. The reviews speak for themselves. I recommend using another shop IG service.

    okay! it is a talented plugin. Easily customize. Guy and other members are very helpful. I am a newbie. I follow there all steps. Like put the link on insta bio and make a shop option on my website. It works great with my woocommerce plugin. This topic was modified 6 years, 3 months ago by tahrimanisa.

    Good idea but useless without support. The plugin fails to keep the WooCommerce store connected to the Snapppt platform. Even after posting a support request there has been zero feedback from the dev team. Additionally we encounter the issue that product images are not pulled from the shop server. I guess we may have to abandon this plugin. Sad really since the idea and concept is fundamentally good.

    This plugin is amazing – not only is it super simple to setup, but it also looks great and integrates well with premium looking stores. I’d highly recommend this plugin. Its made a significant impact on shopping easability! Only issue is that most days its reconnects from my Woocommerce store and you need to refresh.
