Biggest opportunity: “autofill” and “gravity forms add on” 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 50 of 3.6K lifetime downloads are still running, in line with its category: the median Forms plugin keeps 1.3%, across 1,674 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.
High removal-risk signals
63/100Maintenance and integrity signals that tend to precede a WordPress.org removal. Not an official status, a heads-up to act.
- Long abandoned. No update in 11+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
- Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 4.3.34, well behind 7.1.

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.

Probably no surprise, as it hasn’t been updated in 11 years, but this plugin does nothing and SFA.

No longer works. Don’t know what WP version the breaking change occured, but the plugin doesn’t work on my WordPress version 4.9.x This topic was modified 7 years, 7 months ago by mistershmi. Reason: entered 5 star, meant to do 1 star

Fantastic plugin. Worked great. I tried adding actual code to Gravity Forms to disable the auto fill and it wouldn’t work. This plugin does it. Wonderful.

We had some users experiencing issues with certain browsers not autofilling forms correctly. We decided to turn off autofill, and this plugin works perfectly to turn off autofill for Gravity Forms. Thanks a bunch!!
