of downloads still active
At least 3K of 93.3K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Forms plugin keeps 1.3%, across 1,679 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Forms plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

wp.org is where the directory puts the plugin for that search. On merit is where it would sit if results were ranked on rating, support and updates, without the install boost. The last column is how far the wp.org position moved, from our first reading in the last 90 days to the latest.
| Keyword | wp.org | On merit | wp.org move, 90 days |
|---|---|---|---|
| mailpoet your tag | #24 | #22 | down 2 |
| cf7 your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| contact form 7 your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| form your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| forms your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
4 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 1 listed. 3 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words). 4 of its tags aren't in the top 24 for their own search.

Release cadence

no updates anymore, project seems dead This topic was modified 5 months, 4 weeks ago by Kaleu_87.

Possibly because it is not compatible with the latest versions of the Mailpoet plugin or maybe WordPress.Guys, you’ll need to take a look at this because it could turn into a headache, as it did in my case. If you’re not planning to update it, it would be better to remove it from the WordPress plugin repository to avoid causing issues for others. In my case, it took me quite some time to figure out the problem—I initially thought it was MailPoet.

This plugin seems to no longer work with the latest version of WordPress… It’s a shame because it did the job very well!

The plugin does not work since over a month and brakes the contact form 7 admin panel. On frontend the page does not work also.

I was surprised how well this plugin works with WordPress 6.0.2 and it was easy to setup. A perfect interface between Mailpoet3 and Contact Form 7. The only downside was that the donate button didn’t work 😉
