Biggest opportunity: “customize”, “duplicate” and “woocommerce” aren't earning a slot. You list them, but you're not in the first 24 results for those searches. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so free the slot for a search you can win.

of downloads still active
At least 80K of 2M lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median eCommerce plugin keeps 1.4%, across 5,139 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.

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.
| Keyword | wp.org | On merit | wp.org move, 90 days |
|---|---|---|---|
| custom product tabs | #17 | #16 | 0 |
| repeatable your tag | #21 | #17 | down 3 |
| product tabs your tag | #23 | #18 | down 2 |
| customize your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| duplicate your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| woocommerce your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
4 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 3 listed. 1 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words). 3 of its tags aren't in the top 24 for their own search.
What to do about it
- “customize”, “duplicate” and “woocommerce” aren't earning a slot. You list them, but you're not in the first 24 results for those searches. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so free the slot for a search you can win.

Release cadence
No release in a yearHow often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

All reviews on wp.org ↗- ★★★★★ R2Dee8mo ago
No, sorry. The plugin is not intuitively designed. Even in the free version, there are hardly any settings you can adjust. For example, the primary tab with the product information no longer opens first—what’s the point of that? (Probably to encourage people to buy the pro version). There are other, better plugins out there.

This plugin stopped working, and the support team is not responding. Their website also seems to be abandoned.

We are receiving emailed requests to pay to update the PRO version but haven’t heard back from this company since January. The API fails and they no longer supported this plugin. Apparently they’re still requesting money though. This topic was modified 2 years ago by tabledesigns. Reason: wrong rating, i'd give it a zero if i could
