Analytics thresholds

Turn more signal into useful focus

As more customers save products, it becomes valuable to separate a meaningful pattern from a small amount of normal activity. GoScript Advanced Wishlist WordPress Plugin for WooCommerce gives you two thresholds that determine when products become eligible for its most actionable insight views.

1. The two analytics thresholds

Both controls live in the Analytics section of Advanced Wishlist settings, and each supports a different merchandising question.

Minimum Wishlist Adds for Trending ProductsSets the minimum new customer-product wishlist interests a product needs in the selected period before it can qualify as trending.

Minimum Current Wishlisters for Products Worth AttentionSets the minimum current customer demand a product needs before a lower-than-normal wishlist purchase rate can be highlighted.

Trending ProductsHelps you spot products whose wishlist interest is growing fastest compared with the immediately preceding equivalent period.

Products Worth AttentionHelps you investigate products with meaningful current demand that have not yet matched the store’s usual wishlist purchase rate.

2. Set your thresholds

Choose values that reflect the volume of wishlist activity your store receives today, then refine them as the dataset grows.

1. In WordPress, open GoScript Advanced Wishlist → Settings.
2. Find the Analytics section.
3. Set Minimum Wishlist Adds for Trending Products.
4. Set Minimum Current Wishlisters for Products Worth Attention.
5. Select Save changes.

3. Choose thresholds for your store

The best threshold is high enough to filter out random noise while still letting promising signals become visible early enough to influence your merchandising decisions.

• For a newer or lower-volume store, begin with the defaults and avoid setting thresholds so high that useful early patterns never appear.
• For a high-volume catalogue, consider increasing thresholds to keep insight cards focused on the products with the clearest customer interest.
• Use a longer report period when you want to understand steadier demand across a broader window of activity.
• Use a shorter report period when you want to spot new momentum more quickly-then let thresholds guard against a single low-volume event looking bigger than it is.
• Review the results occasionally as customer saving behaviour grows and changes across your catalogue.

4. What thresholds do not change

Thresholds are a focus tool, not a filter on the underlying activity. The rest of Wishlist Intelligence continues to show the demand and purchase information available for the selected report period and scope.

1. Wishlist Adds, removals, Current Wishlisters, purchases, and revenue continue to be calculated normally.
2. Most Wanted Products continues to show current demand.
3. Trending Products simply requires a product to meet your selected Wishlist Adds threshold before it appears in that focused view.
4. Products Worth Attention requires meaningful current demand and a below-average purchase rate before it appears in that focused view.
5. Changing a threshold helps you prioritise what to review; it does not alter historical customer wishlist activity.
