Biggest opportunity: Swap “commerce” for “instamojo”. “commerce” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “instamojo” sits at #4 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 4K of 189.6K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Payments plugin keeps 1.0%, across 1,042 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Payments plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

How it's tracked →Directory searches this plugin turns up in, and which way each one is moving. WordPress.org publishes no history of search positions, so this starts the day we first tracked a keyword and never backfills.
Not enough tracked days yet to call a direction. Momentum needs at least three keywords measured a week or more apart.
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 |

The plugin is not compatible with “High-performance order storage (recommended)” feature on WooCommerce.

Hello Support, Instamojo Latest Update incompatible with Woo-Commerce High Performance Order Storage. Want to use on my store but not able to use due to incompatibility. Message on my wordpress plugin page. This plugin is incompatible with the enabled WooCommerce feature ‘High-Performance order storage (COT)‘, it shouldn’t be activated. With Normal WordPress Post Table Plugins Working Good. Add Compatibility to Instamojo with latest Woocommerce Features. Thanks.

Works perfect as expected.

Just as other reviewers have noted much before me, this plugin gives an error when only any single site of a multi-site has this plug-in activated. Woocommerce is network activated. Clearly it cannot be used in this mode of operation. I created my own repo on github and deleted a condition it was checking for activation, $condition2 = !in_array( 'woocommerce/woocommerce.php', apply_filters( 'active_plugins', get_option( 'active_plugins'))); After removing this condional, activation was fine.

The plugin doesn’t work with WooCommerce 3.6.2. I am fed up requesting Instamojo to update it. The plugin hooks don’t let anyone register on my website. Losing revenue and customers because of this silly plugin. If you do not wish to help people out there, please do not create plugins at all. I think I need to move to PayTM now, those guys are much better, with support. Instamojo, you are just losing customers just because you are not updating a plugin. Bye Bye Instamojo.

I saw that few people have rated this plugin 1 star without understanding how to use it and taking it out on their ratings . This plugin deserves better than that . This is one of the best and most secure plugins and I have been using it for over 8 months without a single hiccup ! Way to go , instamojo . You people are just awesome .

ERROR: Plugin (woo-instamojo) is installed on WP Multisite setup. WooCommerce is ‘Network Active’. Activating this plugin on individual site throws following error: “Instamojo Plugin requires WooCommerce to be Installed First!” BUG: instamojo_activation_hook() is triggering Fatal Error in WordPress Multisite setup. As WooCommerce plugin is Network Active, the hook is unable to complete the condition. This topic was modified 8 years, 10 months ago by goelji. Reason: forgot to choose right star rating
