Biggest opportunity: Swap “countries” and “list” for “orderby” and “used”. “countries” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “orderby” sits at #5 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “list” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “used” sits at #16 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

5.0%

of downloads still active

At least 7K of 138.9K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,772 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.

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.

    LISTO is an excellent little addition to Contact Form 7. Saves lots of time. Only one small snag in the list of countries is that they’re sorted in alphabetical order of the 3-letter code for each country, rather than the country’s name. Most of the time that makes hardly any difference, except for the United Kingdom, whose three-letter code is GBR, which places the UK between Gabon and Guinea (or somewhere around there) in the drop-down list, making it v diff to find. But this is easily sorted. Just manually move that line by editing the list in the file countries.php in wp-content/plugins/listo/modules/. Problem solved. Great plugin.

    Excellent and useful plugin, unfortunately list countries are not accurately by alphabetical order. Thanks to the community, add this to you function.php and it will work like a charm. function wpcf7_listo_ordered( $data) { sort($data); return $data; } add_filter( ‘wpcf7_form_tag_data_option’, ‘wpcf7_listo_ordered’, 11, 1 );
