Biggest opportunity: Swap “contact form 7”, “conditional fields” and “contact form 7 database” for “cf7”, “logic” and “multi step forms”. “contact form 7” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “cf7” sits at #4 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “conditional fields” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #23. “logic” sits at #6 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “contact form 7 database” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #22. “multi step forms” sits at #6 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

How it's measured →3.9%
of downloads still active
At least 20K of 508.1K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Forms plugin keeps 1.3%, across 1,671 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.
This plugin shipped 13 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

I’ve used this plugin for more than 3 years fore the ability structure contact form 7 fields into grids. All of my past sites that already had the plugin are still able to use it. But any site new site or migrated site cannot longer access the grid building feature. Not worth it anymore.
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ flintflux2.1y ago
It seems this plugin developer locked down access to a feature to only previous installs. Blocking all new installs from using the CF7 grid shortcodes that are literally still in the plugin code. They have not said anything about this, nor have they given a reason why. Just enable it again. Everyone will be happy, this review will become a 5 star. Thanks.

The name of this plugin used to be “Divi Contact Form 7”. Now they have changed the name and with that change, they have also made it mandatory to pay even for what used to be free features. If you don’t, nothing works.Whatever you do, do NOT upgrade from version 1.2.6. Block the upgrading of it. There are plugins that can do that. The one I use works perfectly as long as it is 1.2.6. The 1.2.6 version works perfectly, it would deserve a 5 star rating, but with these sleazy methods of pulling it from open source to renaming it to “Divi Forms Styler” and remove the free features is just bad.If the license terms allows it, I will add the 1.2.6 version to WordPress.org. If so, lookout for “Divi Contact Form 7” with some extra words added to the name..
