Build trust instantly. Display total sales counts on your products to leverage the power of social proof and skyrocket your store's conversion rates.

== Description ==

Do your customers hesitate before buying? Often, they just need a nudge. **Total Sales Counts for WooCommerce** transforms your product pages into high-trust shopping environments by displaying how many units have been sold. 

Whether you are a store manager looking for deep analytical insights or a marketer trying to boost social proof, this plugin gives you the tools to track, manage, and display sales data with ease.

### Why Stores Use Total Sales Counts
* **Leverage Social Proof:** Displaying "1,200+ Sold" acts as a powerful psychological trigger, encouraging new customers to trust your product.
* **Deep Business Insights:** Get an extended overview of your WooCommerce dashboard. View monthly sales, order summaries, and stock levels at a glance.
* **Full Control:** Want to boost a new product's perceived popularity? Use the "Custom Sales Number" feature to set a baseline.
* **Developer Friendly:** Need the data elsewhere? Use our powerful, easy-to-implement shortcode.
* **Zero Clutter:** The plugin is smart—sales numbers only appear for products that have actually sold, keeping your UI clean and professional.

== Features ==

* **Conversion-Driven Display:** Show total sales counts on shop archives and single product pages to increase buyer confidence.

* **Advanced Admin Dashboard:** Access a dedicated sales overview panel under the WooCommerce settings menu.
* **Product-Level Control:** Manage sales visibility and override numbers directly from the individual product edit screen.
* **Customizable UI:** Control the singular/plural text labels, bar-chart icon colors, and text colors to perfectly match your theme’s branding.

* **Intelligent Logic:** Automatically hides sales text for products with zero sales, ensuring your store always looks busy and successful.
