CF7 Invisible reCAPTCHA

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 · 100% 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.

   Simple plugin, one click to protect all the forms at once. You can exclude certain forms if needed.

   The plugin overwrites standard CF7 validation, so I can’t use it. Why is that?

   Semplicemente non funziona e rompe il form rendendolo inutilizzabile. È molto meglio “Invisible reCaptcha for WordPress” di Mihai Chelaru.

   Refuse to deal with a blatant issue from 5 months ago that is still a problem. (Duplicate send button). My form isn’t any different from that default form with the exception of a few more fields.
