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.

WP PlugIndex currently records Solucom Shipping Control version 1.2.0 as active, updated 2mo ago and tested up to WordPress 7.1.
Overview
About this plugin
If you sell a mix of small and large products on WooCommerce you know the problem: you offer free shipping over a threshold, but when a customer buys a bulky, expensive item the system zeroes out the shipping cost — and you lose money on the freight.
Solucom Shipping Control fixes this with three simple behaviours:
Disables free shipping whenever the cart contains a product assigned to your chosen “bulky” shipping class.
Hides paid rates when free shipping is legitimately available, so the cart stays clean and the customer is not confused.
Shows a customisable notice on the product page of bulky items (title, message, position and colours — all editable from the settings, no code).
The plugin is lightweight (single file, no external services, no tracking) and fully translatable. org and is delivered automatically to Italian sites as a language pack.
How it decides what is “bulky”
g. “Bulky”), copy its slug into the plugin settings, and assign that class to your oversized products. That is the only thing the plugin keys off — you stay in full control.
