Pro Tip:

Your business should not rely on WooCommerce Extensions that are not actively maintained by their developers because they can't justify keeping up with changes in WooCommerce.

Just like your business should not rely on WordPress Plugins that are not actively maintained by their developers because they can't justify keeping up with changes in WordPress itself.

WordPress Plugins are not static. You don't write them once and then forget them. The nature of WordPress is it is always evolving and changing and plugins need to keep up.

The same goes for add-ons and extensions to popular WordPress plugins like WooCommerce, Gravity Forms, etc.

Don't just use any WordPress plugin, WooCommerce extension, Gravity Forms Add-On, etc. Make sure the developer behind it isn't going to leave you hanging.

WooCommerce gave their development community 3+ months to prepare. That should be ample time.

If a WooCommerce extension you are using wasn't updated because it's developer doesn't have time to maintain the plugin that they made publicly available... that is not WooCommerce's fault. That is the 3rd party developers fault for not maintaining a plugin they released publicly AND the users fault for not doing their homework on the developer behind the 3rd party WooCommerce extension.

If you build a WooCommerce extension you should be following and paying attention to the WooCommerce core development. If you do that, you won't have situations like this arise. It's that simple.
