How it's measured →0.7%
of downloads still active
At least 50 of 7.4K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median eCommerce plugin keeps 1.4%, across 5,151 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 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.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| usermeta your tag | #13 | #12 | down 1 |
| custom fields your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| database your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| sync your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| woocommerce your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
7 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 1 listed. 6 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words). 4 of its tags aren't in the top 24 for their own search.
What to do about it
- One page off on “usermeta”. #13 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.
- “custom fields”, “database” and “sync” 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.

Use it to sync first and last names from billing to user account. Thank you!
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ Johannes9.7y ago
WooCommerce and other plugins come with lots of user meta fields. With this plugin it’s easy to automatically keep them synced. So no need to edit e.g. the customers first name in 6 different input fields (shipping, billing, user, crm, …). Three feature requests: – Two-Way Sync – change the dropdown to a searchable dropdown (my dropdown is > 400 field options) – ability to add custom fields that are not shown in the list.

A real time saver! I can now map my users that were registered by a Formidable form into my Woocommerce shop. Thank you!

This is a very good Tool. Thank you so much.
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ LittleBizzy10.2y ago
Thank you for taking the time to create this plugin! It perfectly solves an annoying issue especially common in WooCommerce sites with syncing user meta fields. The cron is an even nicer touch. By automating this process, our team is able to avoid so many support requests in regard to profile updates. Well done! 🙂 — LittleBizzy

This is a little gem.
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ pjfc10.7y ago
Disclosure: This is the author 🙂 Please install this plugin and give it a spin. It works well for me on a few production websites. But I suggest you use it on test sites only until I release version 1.x. Any plugin benefits from several comments, ideas and thoughts. So please share your feedback so I can make it better!
