Biggest opportunity: Swap “woocommerce” for “custom tabs”. “woocommerce” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “custom tabs” sits at #16 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 1K of 59K lifetime downloads are still running, in line with its category: the median eCommerce plugin keeps 1.4%, across 5,154 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 2 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 “woocommerce” for “custom tabs”. “woocommerce” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “custom tabs” sits at #16 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 “product page tabs”. #11 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.

This plugin is amazing. The only problem is the additional code does not work to show the tab titles.

My current theme (wpastra) doesn’t provide the option of showing the tabs in section mode. This plugin helps to do that. Thanks again for your good work

did the job, in seconds, we had the overall result we were after
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ Nic7.1y ago
Yes it works out of the box. But what it does it to completely remove default scripts from WordPress and insert modified script without tab-code. What does that mean? If the WC-Team do changes to the important single-product.js script in future, the plugin author has to adapt those changes to the modified file! unfortunately it is not really possible to avoid this because WC-Team has no hooks inserted for this to overcome. Only easy and nearly maintainable solution would be custom javascript in the footer: $( '.wc-tab').show(); and css: .wc-tabs-wrapper .tabs.wc-tabs { display: none; } its up to you if you prefer client und server side solution.
