Biggest opportunity: Swap “custom woocommerce fee” for “funny”. “custom woocommerce fee” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “funny” sits at #24 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

of downloads still active
At least 7K of 303.2K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Admin & Utilities plugin keeps 0.6%, across 4,189 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Admin & Utilities 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 4 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.

What to do about it
- Swap “custom woocommerce fee” for “funny”. “custom woocommerce fee” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “funny” sits at #24 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.
- One page off on “custom product fields”. #16 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.

Ik ben altijd heel tevreden geweest met de plugin. Helaas gaat deze niet met zijn tijd mee en kan ik de plugin daardoor niet blijven gebruiken. Field factory geeft veel foutmeldingen en conflicten.

Hi there,I realized my checkout page was not working anymore, I don’t know since when.Bug description :I added 2 checkboxes on payement page in “checkout fields > other fields”They appear as usual on the payment page, but cannot be clicked.Solution – Workaround : Make something like a Reset of checkbox CSS by creating a Custom CSS.input[type=”checkbox”] {appearance: checkbox;-webkit-appearance: checkbox; -moz-appearance: checkbox; position: relative; z-index: 1000; pointer-events: auto; }The problem is coming (maybe) from the use of ::after and ::before checkbox paramatersAnother issue existing for a while :When I add a new field from plugin side, it happens the order of new fields are differents on payment page.For example, I add 4 fields – 2 checkboxes et 2 text/html field for information.When I save the fields , I observe the last modified field is displayed as last on the page, even if the position should be 1st.Workaround, try to modify and save at the end of your operations the field you want to display as last.This plugin has not been updated for 6 months.I hope it will be soon, excepted these bugs, it’s a good plugin.

I recently tried out WC Fields Factory, and I have to say, I’m really impressed! This plugin has a ton of features that are incredibly useful for anyone who wants to product addons. I especially appreciate the condinal field option. But what really stood out to me was the developer’s support. When I ran into an issue, I reached out to the developer for help. They responded right away and were able to walk me through the fix in just a few minutes. I was really impressed with their knowledge and willingness to help out. Overall, I highly recommend WC Fields Factory to anyone who needs Extra Product Option. The features are great, and the support is top-notch. Thanks to the developer for creating such a fantastic plugin!

Disable WooCommerce without this plugin? Whole website crashes. Try to change the slug for the field? Doesn’t work half the time. Editing a field and saving it? Doesn’t save, overwrites previous saves, have to do work again. Tip to the developer: don’t use advanced javascript drop downs and ajax functionality if you don’t know how to code properly. Stick with regular HTML forms until you get more experience.

This was a blessing for my Wedding gown site, for customers to add all custom measurements for their gowns. It made life so much easier for my customers and me! Excellent service and help when needed also!

This plugin is fantastic. Thank you! Putting together a shop with VERY complex field customizations, with price variations, show/hide field logic, etc. and this plugin does it all!

Have been using WordPress plugins library for over a decade now. Have never come across a team as responsive and solution-oriented as that of WC Fields Factory Had a issue in integrating with Tutor LMS platform. The developer could’ve easily responded as ‘We’re not supporting this at present’ but instead went ahead to modify the plugin and ensured that it works all within 12 hours of contacting support.
