Version 4.10.0 shipped on September 15, 2026. The changelog has the full notes for every release.
-
Service and Event products
v4.10Sell services and event places with delivery details and one-time plans, and send paid order instructions without issuing a software license key.
-
Customer accounts
v4.10Customers get purchase history, order details, printable receipts, subscription terms, searchable licenses and downloads, and profile and billing settings in one account area.
-
Product galleries and configurable license keys
v4.10Show products with the Product Gallery block or shortcode, and choose the character style, length, prefix and grouping of new license keys while existing keys stay intact.
-
Industry templates and faster polls
v4.9.6Sixteen multi-step starter forms for industries from real estate to logistics, fields that can be dragged between steps, and a single-column poll editor with instant tabs.
-
Visual multi-step forms
v4.9.5Build named steps in the visual builder, reorder them, move fields between them and preview the result on desktop and mobile before publishing.
-
Six new integrations
v4.9.5Pipedrive contacts and deals, Zendesk tickets, Fluent Support tickets, authenticated n8n webhooks, Resend transactional email and a FlowMattic bridge, plus a safe way to test any action with sample data.
-
Integrations that report the truth
v4.9.4Failed integration calls are reported as failures everywhere, and eligible actions can run in the background with automatic retries for temporary errors.
-
No submission disappears in silence
v4.9Fixed captcha rejections and failed database writes that looked successful, added duplicate prevention, blocked-attempt reporting, inbox search, faster submission queries and the wp core-forms doctor command.
The next release theme: numbers you can put in front of a client. Expect some conversion rates to go down, because they will stop counting the same visitor twice.
-
A real visitor session behind the funnel
5.0Views, starts and submissions counted per visitor session instead of as independent counters, so completion rates describe people rather than page events.
-
Where people actually quit
5.0Abandonment reported by the last field a visitor focused before leaving, replacing the current drop-off view that mostly reflects field order.
-
Attribution without a cookie banner
5.0First-touch UTM parameters and the real referring site kept for the visit without a cookie, then joined to payment amounts so you can see which campaign made money.
-
Lost submissions panel
5.0See the attempts that were blocked and why, including forms whose hidden spam field was stripped by a page cache, and set a real reCAPTCHA minimum score.
-
Cross-form reports
5.0One report across every form with period-over-period changes, a print-ready one-page summary for clients and scheduled report emails.
-
Conversion events you can use
5.0The success response and the cf-success event carry the submission ID and value, so your own conversion pixels can fire once per real submission.
Committed for the releases after 5.0. The order is rough, not strict.
-
Entry filters and saved views
5.1Filter and sort submissions by any field value, save the views you use every week and search large inboxes without slowing the admin down.
-
Signature field
5.1Draw-to-sign with a keyboard-friendly type-your-name alternative, stored as a normal file upload with the submission.
-
Entry PDF
5.1Turn any submission into a printable document with the answers in order, the timestamp, the signature and the payment status.
-
Dynamic dropdown options
5.1Fill a dropdown from your own posts or custom post types, such as venues or courses, and reject submitted values that were never on the list.
-
Richer confirmations
5.1Confirmation messages with basic formatting and form answers, and conditional redirects that send different people to different pages.
-
Uploads that show progress
5.1A drop zone, per-file progress, thumbnails, remove buttons and size and type checks before the upload starts.
-
Stripe-managed subscriptions
5.2Recurring plans where Stripe handles the billing, retries and card recovery, with Core Commerce keeping licenses in step with each payment.
-
Renewal reminders and store reports
5.2Reminder emails before and after a license expires, a grace period, and revenue reports covering new sales, renewals and recurring revenue by product and currency.
-
Coupons and checkout recovery
5.2Discount codes for sales and launches, and a reminder email with a secure link for checkouts that were started but not finished.
-
Staged plugin releases
5.2Release channels, gradual rollouts to a share of customers and a pause button for a bad update, for anyone selling plugins through Core Commerce.
On the radar and not committed. Feedback on any of these helps decide what moves up.
-
Multi-language forms
First-class support for Polylang and WPML, so one form can serve every language on the site.
-
Per-form design tokens
Different colors, spacing and typography for individual forms, beyond the site-wide Form Theme Customizer.
-
Tax and invoices
Tax rules at checkout, stored business tax IDs and numbered invoices and credit notes for Core Commerce orders.
-
Cart and bundles
A persistent cart, product bundles and several downloadable files per product for a full digital storefront.
-
More integrations
Requested connections under review: Salesforce, Klaviyo, Bento, SureDash, Pabbly Connect, and native Breakdance and Oxygen elements.
Considered and deliberately left out. Saying no to these keeps the plugin fast and the support load honest.
-
AI form generation
It would add a permanent dependency on an outside AI provider and an API-key setup for every site, for something a starter template already does in one click.
-
Repeatable field groups
Conditional logic, calculations, exports and every integration assume one value per field. Nested repeating data would put all of them at risk.
-
A front-end submissions portal
Letting visitors browse their own entries means one missed permission check could expose other people’s data. Submissions will link to user accounts, but the portal stays out.
-
Form A/B testing
Very few WordPress forms get enough traffic to reach a trustworthy result, so the feature would mostly produce confident-looking noise.
