Biggest opportunity: Swap “woocommerce product slider” for “image swap”. “woocommerce product slider” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #19. “image swap” sits at #12 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

2.4%

of downloads still active

At least 6K of 253.4K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median eCommerce plugin keeps 1.4%, across 5,181 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 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.

Reviewer account pattern

from wp.org reviewer profiles

11 of the last 23 four- and five-star reviews came from accounts created within a month of posting the review, and 6 of those landed between 2021-10-27 and 2021-11-25.

Registering a wp.org account just to leave a review is common and often entirely legitimate. The share here is unusually high for the sample, so it's worth keeping in mind while reading the reviews.

    I have been having issues to deactivate the shortcode displaying on the home page of my site after deactivating the plugin. I reached out to support and they assisted to resolve the issue. It took several interactions, but thank you for resolving the issue. I edited my response and change the rating, as it is a helpful plugin to use for your woocommerce shop. Thanks to the support team, especially Al-amin Khan, for your help.

    I recently purchased this product and have had trouble with the grid layout working. I’ve tried reaching out to support by leaving a ticket and have also tried to reach out many times through Facebook chat. This company does not offer the support they advertise. Beware by this product if you have any issues, I do not recommend.
