Biggest opportunity: “gravity forms”, “gravity forms css” and “gravity forms design” 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 2K of 54.7K 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.

    WP 5.2.2 Activating this plugin makes the customizer not loading anymore. Deactivating the plugin brings the Customizer back to life. Gravity Forms should not recommend this plugin.

    Unfortunately, does not work on my installation (WordPress 5.1.1) For some reason, it’s causing the customizer to ***crash***. Apart from that, looks like a good plugin. If you can please fix it, I will re-review it and give it the appropriate star rating (which will likely be high). Thanks.

    I installed the plugin and it crashed my website on activation. I had to get in touch with my hosting provider to restore the website from backup.

    Bon plugin. Permet de personnaliser des formulaires qui deviendraient vite triste à consulter sans y adjoindre un peu de sa touche personnelle. Parmi les points qui seraient à améliorer: Une notice d’utilisation en français par exemple plutôt que des copies d’écrans en anglais permettrait de tirer la quintessence du produit. La dernière mise à jour remonte à 7 mois. Nécessité de valider avec la dernière version de WordPress notamment

    This is a good and simple to use plugin. Only one issue. Where input fields are in multiple columns using the gravity forms CSS styles it’s not possible to add a margin to the left and right of the boxes so they butt up to each other. THe margins option is top and bottom, it REALLY needs a separate left and right. I have tried all the options but no joy. Other than this it’s a great free plugin.

    I get weird display for checkboxes and radio buttons on Chrome when using the plugin, last update dates back from August 1, 2018… Had to deactivate the plugin to allow users to actually interact and submit forms. This topic was modified 7 years, 5 months ago by Fanaticweb.

    Good plugin but a few issues: – checkboxes disappear when enabling custom styling – no way to style font for checkbox and radio button labels – needs a feature to adjust opacity of fields – poor styling for buttons. Doesnt’ look good on mobile. These issues need fixed to achieve 5 stars This topic was modified 7 years, 4 months ago by rockethead2.
