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 Prevent Purchase for WooCommerce version 1.1.0 as active, updated 1y ago and tested up to WordPress 6.8.
Overview
About this plugin
This plugin requires WooCommerce. It allows the site owner to prevent a product from being purchased by enabling a checkbox. It also allows you to override the message on a per-product basis.
This will be useful for when you want to let customers know a product is only available in-store but still have the product listed on your website.
How does it work?
This is a very simple plugin that hooks into WooCommerce’s woocommerce_is_purchasable filter. When a product is deemed unpurchasable the “add to cart” button on the main product listing is replaced with a “read more” button. When the customer views the single product page they are shown a message that the product is not available for purchase and the add to cart buttons are removed.
