Biggest opportunity: “contactform7” and “forms” aren't earning a slot. You list them, but you're not in the first 24 results for those searches. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so free the slot for a search you can win.

of downloads still active
At least 100 of 5.6K 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.
High removal-risk signals
63/100Maintenance and integrity signals that tend to precede a WordPress.org removal. Not an official status, a heads-up to act.
- Long abandoned. No update in 7+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
- Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 5.2.30, well behind 7.1.

Hi, It is not showing the Add to Google calendar option on contact form 7. I have configured all the settings but it is not working..

This plugin is a life saver! Before this plugin I had to manually copy every thing to my google calendar when I wanted to, for example, setup a meeting or a event. Now I can do this with a simple click, every thing appears filled on google calendar. Very easy to configure. Brilliant solution to a very common problem.

Glad I found this, really useful to complement the pre-reservation form I built using Contact Form 7.
