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.

Overview

About this plugin

This plugin works with and depends upon the Shopp e-commerce plugin for WordPress. 1.

Enough of that, what does it do?

  • Shopp already ships with a widget that can be used to display product categories. This is an alternative to that widget.
  • Select only those categories that you wish to include, ignore the rest.
  • Easy to use: simply check the boxes for the relevant categories, choose the display mode (dropdown, regular list etc) and you’re done.
  • A convenient way to build category-based store menus in the sidebar!

This plugin was written by Barry Hughes and can be supported by buying the author a beer.
