Sitewise

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.

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.

9 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 2 listed. 7 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words). 4 of its tags aren't in the top 24 for their own search.

Directory rank

Ranked about #25,300 to #28,300, alongside the other plugins at 20+ installs. Plugins with the same install count swap places between wp.org requests, so this is where most of them sit. Checked monthly, last on 21 Oct 2026.

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. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Crossed into this band 3 months ago and a band this size takes about a year or more to cross, so the real count is still just under 30.

   Many thanks for this. The author has done a great and comprehensive work on this plugin. In particular I love the control for colours to match the theme of the website, although the ability to actually type in the hex code for the desired colours would be a plus. Of course the best part is having a copy of all visitor requests in the dedicated WP-Admin area! A couple of modifications I would definitely suggest would be to have the option of removing the text messages/areas above and below the form completely. Also to keep the form inviting to my site visitors, I could do with being able to remove the ‘Postcode’ and even the Google Captcha function from the form. A very useful addition would be for the {bloginfo} shortcode to report the actual URL of the page from which the request was made rather than only the site name which is not that informative to the site owner. I also wonder if there is a shortcode that can be used to insert the form inside page and post content without relying on the Widget functionality. That would make it 200% for me!
