Biggest opportunity: “audio”, “contact form” and “record” 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.

1.7%

of downloads still active

At least 100 of 5.9K 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 1 release 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.

    Thanks a lot for making this great plugin. It hurts me to complain about a free plugin that works effortlessly like this one, but… why the audio format is .webm? I can’t upload it back to WordPress… “I need to transform it to mp3 so the uploader”not an accepted format” according the WP uploader ;(
