Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site. Why active installs don’t tell the whole story →

WP PlugIndex currently records JSM Show Post Metadata version 4.9.1 as active, updated 3d ago and tested up to WordPress 7.1.

Overview

About this plugin

The JSM Show Post Metadata plugin displays post (ie. posts, pages, and custom post types) meta keys (aka custom field names) and unserialized values in a metabox at the bottom of the post editing page.

2, then your WooCommerce orders are NOT post objects and you should use the JSM Show Order Metadata plugin instead.

There are no plugin settings – simply install and activate the plugin.
