Biggest opportunity: Add “skip” to your wp.org tags. You rank #13 for it without listing it, close enough for a declared tag to move you up. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so with 4 listed it's a slot worth spending.

How it's measured →5.0%
of downloads still active
At least 10K of 198.9K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median eCommerce plugin keeps 1.4%, across 5,173 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 8 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.

This is another useful plugin by WPClever to bypass the cart page and redirect customer to the checkout page immediatly, but it lacks some features in my opinion. Here are my requested features: 1. An option to able/disable it per product 2. Possibility to change the “Buy now” button text per product 3. Possibility to replace the default “add to cart” button Thanks

Thank you for this extremely handy plugin. Lovely to have a Buy Now button on products that absolutely works a treat.

<font _mstmutation=”1″></font>It’s simple, straightforward, and easy to use. However, I don’t see any buttons to select some options. I don’t know how to use it. As an alternative, I will display and sell it as a product with no selection options.
