CF7 Google Captcha Load After Page

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory rank vs rivals

wp.org popularity rank over time · higher is better · when a rival's line climbs above yours, they've overtaken you

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin · 93% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Refined from the date this plugin crossed into its current band.

No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from. The recent download trend is too spiky to read.

   This loads the recaptcha after the user starts scrolling rather than the default which is immediately. This means that the script for recaptcha will not cause your performance scores to plummet on tests such as Chrome’s Lighthouse. Works as it should, so thank you!

   Nice and simple plugin with nothing to complain! Would be neat, if it could handle the default cf7 scripts the same way. But I know, this is off-topic over here. Thanks for this nice work!

   Simple but very effective plugin. I have seen a noticeable difference in terms of page loading time

   Hey Sir: This is a must-use plugin with which you can improve your mobile user experience. I think this plugin has great potential if you find a way to enable it to load google resources with certain pages, forms, or clicking elements like buttons or inputs. Many people will want to use it if you extend its functionality. Thank you! This topic was modified 7 years, 3 months ago by Jan Dembowski. Reason: Removed link

   Just want to say that this plugin is amazing. It’s simplicity is really what does it. My 98 lighthouse score site is a 64 with reCaptcha v3. You can see the extra processing time on mobile devices and other slower devices. With this plugin, the lazy load for CF7 makes this so much snappier. Only thing that would make this better is if CF7 folks integrated it, but thank you for picking up the slack.
