of downloads still active
At least 200 of 3.4K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,783 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.

Just a perfect add-on to Gravity Forms. If you don’t like to use the plugin, but for example prefer to conditional load this functionality, you can get it on github here: https://github.com/pbc-web/gravityforms-add-button-class Maybe you need to get this in the Gravity Forms add-on page. Much appreciated work!
