Not compatible with high performace order storage

Despite being updated only 4 months ago, it is still not compatible with the current way of Woo to store orders (high performance order storage), so it is unfortunately useless unless the author adds support for hpos.

High-Performance order storage

By MYME (myuae) on February 23, 2025

I like what the plugin does, but woo commerce says: This plugin is incompatible with the enabled WooCommerce feature 'High-Performance order storage', it shouldn't be activated.

What shall I do with it?
