Biggest opportunity: Swap “contact form pdf” and “pdf contact form” for “contract” and “wpform”. “contact form pdf” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #24. “contract” sits at #20 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “pdf contact form” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #24. “wpform” sits at #24 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

How it's measured →3.6%
of downloads still active
At least 1K of 27.8K 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 4 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.

I have been using this plugin for a few days and am very pleased with it. I am even more pleased with the support, which is very quick to help. Thanks for the best combo = plugin + support.

Con questo plugin ho facilmente integrato ai miei forms creati con Elementor PRO la possibilità di ricevere via mail un PDF riepilogativo.Il file è personalizzabile in ogni suo punto e quando ho avuto un dubbio di configurazione il team di supporto mi ha immediatamente dato le informazioni per risolvere.Lo consiglio vivamente.
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ Marcus1.9y ago
The plug-in seems to be quite user-friendly and has many features and options, but it claims to offer conditional content according to its description (“You can hide or show PDF content …”) which it actually does not – not even the Pro version. That was a crucial feature for me. Hence, it renders useless to me. Unfortunately. This topic was modified 1 year, 7 months ago by Marcus. Reason: revised rating

This is the only plugin I could find which is userfriendly and integrates in wpforms. It converts my wpforms to pdf and attach the pdf on the mail while sending. Only minor point is that the selected fields in the pdf template all show “the difficult field number” instead of the userfriendly name which you can choose while composing the template.
