The WPForms Form Abandonment Addon is a premium tool designed to capture “partial entries”—data entered by a user who starts filling out a form but leaves the page before hitting the submit button.
This is EXACTLY the same product as distributed by the developer. Sales Page
| Feature | Details |
| Trigger Events | Captures data when a user moves the mouse outside the viewport (exit intent) or clicks a link to leave the page. |
| Lead Capture | Saves all field data entered up to the moment of abandonment. |
| Selective Saving | Option to save all partial entries or only those that include an email address or phone number. |
| Notifications | Supports automated “Abandoned Form” email notifications to both the site admin and the user (to encourage them to return). |
| Duplicate Prevention | Includes a setting to Prevent duplicate abandon entries if a user returns and abandons the form multiple times. |
| Privacy & Security | Automatically excludes sensitive data (Passwords, Signatures, File Uploads, and Credit Card details) from partial saves. |
Plugin Version: Requires the latest version of the WPForms Core plugin.
License Tier: Available only for Pro and Elite license holders. It is not available in the Lite (free) version.
WordPress Version: Compatible with the latest stable release of WordPress (currently 6.x+).
GDPR Constraint: This addon will not work if “Disable User Cookies” is enabled in your WPForms settings, as it relies on cookies to track the session.
The addon uses Enhanced Smart Detection to monitor user activity in real-time. Unlike the “Save and Resume” addon (which requires the user to manually click a button), the Form Abandonment addon is passive.
Detection: As soon as the user interacts with a field, the plugin begins monitoring.
Storage: If the user attempts to close the tab or navigate away, the plugin instantly sends the current field values to your WordPress database.
Management: These entries appear in your WPForms > Entries dashboard marked with an “Abandoned” status tag.
