Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, this plugin is declared compatible with WooCommerce’s High-Performance Order Storage (HPOS) feature from version 2.3 onwards.
No, this version of the plugin focuses purely on a simple searchable dropdown for quick product switching. The category and status filters were removed to simplify the interface and improve performance.
The plugin fetches all products to populate the dropdown for client-side searching. For extremely large stores (tens of thousands of products or more), you might experience a slight delay on initial page load where the dropdown is rendered. However, the client-side filtering remains very fast.
