Update activity

How busy the existing users are, measured as downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites. A spike means a new release everyone's pulling; a long, slow decline means an aging user base that updates less.

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A declining trend compresses what a buyer would pay.

    食料品には対応してない印象を受けます。生鮮食品関係のECで無料版を利用していますが、いくら休日期間を設定してもお客側からは配達希望日を設定できてしまいます。商品の消費期限が短く出荷調整などがあるため、こちらで休日とした日はお客側には配達希望日として表示しないようにして頂けると助かります。3年前のフォーラムでも似たような質問(配送に関する新機能希望2020年3月25日)が出ていて機能追加される旨が書いてありましたがプロ版では対応されていますか?

    昨日にインストールして色々と設定を行っています。 WooCommerceを日本の商習慣にローカライズするプラグインで使いやすいです。 ありがとうございます。 1点、不具合(なのかな?) 配達予約可能開始日で当日配送ができる場合は0を入力してください、とあったので0を入力すると、なぜか2で表示されます。 2を入力した時も2で表示されるので見た目からは違いが分かりませんでした。 バージョンは2.2.12 WPのバージョンは5.6.2 です。
