WooCommerce Legacy REST API

by Automattic · eCommerce

The WooCommerce Legacy REST API, which is now part of WooCommerce itself but will be removed in WooCommerce 9.0.

Artificially boosted, install count is not earned

Published by Automattic. 400K+ installs but only 29 reviews, 79% of them one-star (1.5★ genuine). A plugin almost nobody reviews yet sitting at this scale is riding a captive install base, a host or a parent product pushing it onto sites, not users choosing it from the directory.

We exclude plugins like this from our leaderboards rather than reward the manipulation.
