Send PDF for Contact Form 7

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

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.

0 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days. 5 of its tags aren't in the top 24 for their own search.

Directory rank vs rivals

wp.org popularity rank over time · higher is better · when a rival's line climbs above yours, they've overtaken you

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin · 83% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Crossed into this band 10 months ago and the previous band took 5.2 years to cross, so the real count is still just under 10K.

   I’ve been using this plugin for years, hoping it would improve over time, but unfortunately, it hasn’t lived up to expectations. The functionality is often buggy, with frequent issues that disrupt my workflow. It’s not reliable, and I’ve encountered multiple instances where features either don’t work as advertised or break unexpectedly after updates. On top of that the support responses (if any) are slow and often fail to address the core issues. While it has potential and a few features that are decent, the lack of polish and dependable assistance makes it hard to recommend. I’m actively looking for alternatives.

   Plugin works great EXCEPT at the moment it does not seem to display HEIC the new image file format. This is becoming the new default image on mobile devices. Contact Form 7 accepts the heic images fine. Its just not being embedded in the pdf form generator. This topic was modified 1 year, 9 months ago by memzz.

   This plugin has been a lifesaver. I needed a plugin that works with Conditional Fields for Contact Form 7, preferably the Pro version. I tried another PDF plugin which was giving me a right headache and then I came across this plugin and it did exactly what I needed. Works great with repeating fields in CF7 Conditional fields Pro. Thank you!
