About WPForms
WPForms documents its own addons as tutorials; the feed is support content, not releases.
A steady twice-weekly cadence of how-to posts, each walking through one capability: stopping duplicate submissions, routing entries by conditional logic, connecting to Make.com through the native addon, pushing entries into Slack, building an applicant tracker on forms, and distinguishing confirmations from notifications. No entry announces anything new.
