Biggest opportunity: “genesis” and “widgets” 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 2K of 24.5K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,773 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Uncategorized plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

How it's tracked →Directory searches this plugin turns up in, and which way each one is moving. WordPress.org publishes no history of search positions, so this starts the day we first tracked a keyword and never backfills.
Not enough tracked days yet to call a direction. Momentum needs at least three keywords measured a week or more apart.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| genesis your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| widgets your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
2 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 0 listed. 2 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words). 2 of its tags aren't in the top 24 for their own search.
What to do about it

Release cadence
No release in a yearHow often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

This plugin helped me turn the gravity form on my contact page into an email list building engine. The persons contacting me had already added a name and email address to the form. With this plugin, all they had to do to be added to my email list was check a box. A painless way to grow a list.

We use it with Mailerlite and it works just like it should. Just install, fill in your api key and set it up in your Gravity Form. At a certain point auto updates broke the plugin, but I was quickly helped on the forums and a solution was found. Thank your for this “simple”, but helpful plugin.

Thank you for this. It just works. I installed, activated, added my mailerlite api key, created the feed and carried out a test registration which showed up in mailerlite instantly. Really appreciate your efforts to build and maintain this integration.

1. I think that a plugin like this it doesn’t need to include a tracking service even if we need to consent. 2. Plugin doesn’t follow best practices. Makes use of many scripts/libraries. I was expected from a plugin like this to have a cleaner code (like most of Gravity Forms add-ons). Not recommended.

I just changed the subscribe forms on my sites to use MailerLite instead of MailChimp and this was exactly what I needed, so that I could keep using all my Gravity Forms. Thanks for creating this. It was super easy to setup and works beautifully 👍

Fills an important need for me because Gravity Forms is my form of choice and MailerLite is an incredible player in this space!

the “Feed settings” page shows up blank and does not let me set up the details appropriately. When I checked in inspector i got a 500 error.
