Menu Cart for WooCommerce

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory rank vs rivals

wp.org popularity rank over time · higher is better · when a rival's line climbs above yours, they've overtaken you

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

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Refined from the date this plugin crossed into its current band.

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. The recent download trend is too spiky to read.

   I’ve been using the free version of this plugin for years. For themes with no cart, it’s an absolute must and I can’t recommend it enough.

   Yeah, I’m one happy camper. After finding way too many function.php code snippets (that didn’t work) for adding the cart totals to Divi, I found this plugin that worked even better than I wanted. It ads to price total as well, if you want! Thank you so much for this plugin! I’ll stop shouting now…
