How it's measured →0.8%
of downloads still active
At least 10 of 1.2K lifetime downloads are still running, below 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 2 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.

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.

Reviewer account pattern
from wp.org reviewer profiles10 of the last 10 four- and five-star reviews came from accounts created within a month of posting the review, and 10 of those landed between 2025-08-28 and 2025-08-28.
Registering a wp.org account just to leave a review is common and often entirely legitimate. The share here is unusually high for the sample, so it's worth keeping in mind while reading the reviews.

Brilliant plugin! I manage multiple websites for clients, and this is by far the smoothest way to connect Contact Form 7 with WhatsApp. Both admin and user notifications work perfectly. Error logging also makes troubleshooting super easy.
