## Description

Most websites are designed for hit-and-run readers. People find your site, read 
your article, and leave. Wouldn’t it be nice if some of those people subscribe or
share your amazing content?

Inbound Rocket has everything you need to grow your lead list. Here are the features
that makes Inbound Rocket the most powerful customer acquisition & lead generation
platform. For more information about the different features, check out [our features section on our website](https://inboundrocket.co/features/).

#### Business Isn’t Business Unless It’s Personal

Proper customer acquisition starts by knowing the person you are contacting. That’s
why when someone submits any form on your WordPress site, you want to know more 
about them. What are the pages they’ve visited, did they return multiple times, 
did they share certain content?

Inbound Rocket’s WordPress plugin gives you the details you need so you can make
your next move.

#### Get More Traffic To Your Website

Most online businesses dream of having a highly popular website. It’s good for your
brand and ultimately serves to drive wave after wave of potential customers your
way. However, dreaming about it won’t get you there — taking action is the key.

By using one of sharing power-ups, you will make it more easy for your visitors 
to share your content and in return end up with more visitors.

#### Convert Your Website Visitors Into Customers

Most marketing experts agree that it takes an average of seven contacts with a prospect
before they’ll buy. So the way to convert site visitors into prospects and prospects
into customers (and first-time customers into repeat customers) is by building relationships
over time. The only way for you to be able to start building those relationships
is by capturing their email addresses.

Use our conversion power-ups to prevent people from slipping through the cracks.

#### Get Set Up In 3 Minutes

Inbound Rocket is easy to set up because it works with your existing website and
even your existing forms. We automatically find and integrate with the forms on 
your site, no coding required.

Multisite Compatible
 Inbound Rocket is fully Multisite compatible. The plugin will
all data to each site’s installation just fine without requiring any additional 
setup.

Note:
 Inbound Rocket collects usage information about this plugin so that we can
better serve our users and know what features to add. By installing and activating
the Inbound Rocket for WordPress plugin you agree to these terms.

### 󠀁[Very helpful plugin if you want insights about visitor behaviour!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/very-helpful-plugin-if-you-want-insights-about-visitor-behaviour/)󠁿

 [mediaplay](https://profiles.wordpress.org/mediaplay/) 10, Xineru de 2018

This plugin is very simple to install, but gives you a very good insight of a visitor
who contacts you. When someone fills in a (contact) form, you’ll also get an email
from inbound rocket with a list of all the pages (and the time spent) that person
visited on your website. I found this very helpful, it gives me valuable information.
I didn’t use the extra options yet. But for what I use it for, it works really great!
Support is also great (and don’t forget, it’s a free plugin).

I stumbled across Inbound Rocket by accident, after testing their standalone Selection
Sharing plugin. And I love what I see so far! For any blogger looking to get more
from their blog – from comments to shares to email subscribers – Inbound Rocket 
looks like it will deliver. An easy-to-understand UI, great integration with other
APIs and services (though Postmatic integration would be the icing on the cake!),
and some nice analytics to see where you’re being most effective – an excellent 
first release. There is one concern I have. When installing the plugin, it adds 
a bit of load time and an additional 50 requests (as per Pingdom). If this could
be optimized so load isn’t impacted, it’d be a 5-star review. Looking forward to
seeing what comes next – oh, and before I forget, the support from these guys is
awesome!

### 󠀁[Cool, but very limited](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cool-but-very-limited/)󠁿

 [SJDSocial](https://profiles.wordpress.org/sjdsocial/) 3, Setiembre de 2016 1 reply

Understand this plugin is still in its infancy of development, and it is pretty 
cool for novelty value. But few things don’t work (broken links, inserts 2 twitter
usernames, Google shortener broken etc). Also, quite a few things missing to make
it something the masses would use (integration with various mail software, customisation
settings etc). Not a bad first attempt, but far from 5 stars.

## Changelog

#### 2.0.0

**MAJOR UPDATE: Complete plugin modernization with critical security fixes**
 This
release introduces a modern architecture that can coexist with the legacy code. 
New features should use the namespaced classes (InboundRocket), while existing code
continues to work via the compatibility layer.

#### 1.6.0

We’ve been busy bees (or should we say busy rockets?) working behind the scenes 
to make Inbound Rocket more secure, more modern, and just plain better. This release
is like giving your plugin a spa day, a security upgrade, and a code makeover all
rolled into one.

**Security: locked down tighter than Fort Knox**
 We’ve hardened escaping and database
usage across all admin surfaces. Think of it as upgrading from a regular lock to
a biometric vault with laser tripwires. Your data? Fortress-level protected. This
was a massive undertaking touching over 60 files, but hey, security isn’t something
you skimp on.

**Code modernization: out with the old, in with the new**
 We’ve given the codebase
a serious facelift. Removed those pesky deprecated `create_function` calls (they
were so 2010), fixed void return types, added proper visibility requirements, and
cleaned up logic throughout. It’s like we went through the entire codebase with 
a fine-tooth comb and said “nope, not good enough” to anything that wasn’t up to
modern PHP standards.

**Onboarding: no more Rubik’s cube in the dark**
 Remember when onboarding felt 
like trying to solve a puzzle blindfolded? Yeah, we fixed that. The onboarding process
is now smoother than butter on a hot pancake. No more confusion, no more “wait, 
what do I do now?” moments—just a clear, guided path to capturing leads like a pro.

**GDPR compliance: because privacy matters**
 We’ve made significant improvements
to our GDPR compliance features. Fixed default values, improved export functionality,
and made sure everything works the way it should. Your visitors’ data privacy? We’ve
got it covered like a warm blanket on a cold night.

**Form builder: building forms, building dreams**
 Added form builder code and fixed
some GDPR issues along the way. Now you can build forms that work seamlessly with
Inbound Rocket’s lead tracking. It’s like having a Swiss Army knife for lead generation.

**Deprecated notices: consider them deprecated**
 Fixed those annoying deprecated
PHP notices that were cluttering up your error logs. Your logs are now as clean 
as a whistle (or at least, way cleaner than before). No more scrolling through warnings
to find actual errors.

**Bug fixes: the usual suspects**
 Squashed bugs in the power-ups page, fixed issues
with options not being removed on delete, improved logic throughout (isset to empty
for better logic), and fixed various notice errors. We’ve been on a bug-hunting 
safari and came back with quite the collection.

**Under the hood: the engine got a complete overhaul**
 Performance improvements,
code cleanup, and general maintenance that’ll make everything run smoother than 
a rocket gliding through space. You might not notice it immediately, but your server
will thank you (and so will your users).

That’s a wrap! This release represents months of work making Inbound Rocket more
secure, more modern, and more reliable. As always, if you spot something that needs
attention, drop us a line. We’re all ears (and rockets).

#### 1.6.0

We’ve noticed some problems during on boarding that are fixed in this release. Next
to that we’re supporting the latest version of WordPress. This means, fixes of showing
jQuery migrate warnings and some other under the hood improvements…

#### 1.5.4

Minor bug fix release to fix an issue with the Selection Sharer as reported by Dan
Ackerman. Thanks a lot Dan for finding it!

#### 1.5.3

It seemed the charting solution we were using is not fully compliant with the GPL
rules, so in this release, we switched from Highcharts to Charts.js for our statistics
dashboard and widget.

While we’re at it, are you missing anything on the statistics part that will help
you improve your business results? Drop us a line so we can keep on improving Inbound
Rocket.

Next, to that, there’s also some bug squashed and performance enhancements.

Thanks a lot, Daniel from Schoolastic for reporting the issue with our Welcome Mat
so we could fix it. If you’re enjoying Inbound Rocket, please consider leaving a
review or rating!

#### 1.5.2

Small bug fix in the MailChimp connector, thanks to Han van Eijden for spotting 
this one! Next, to that, we made our connection to Gravatar in the backend go over
https by default.

#### 1.5.1

Lots of under the hood bug fixes, thanks all for reporting them! And the introduction
of a new power-up; from now on you can synchronise the leads you generate on your
WordPress website also towards your aWeber newsletter lists!

#### 1.5.0

Big news.

We’ve been working on this release for quite some time now, and we think you will
going to love it. So what is new?

 * Awesome new “Welcome Mat” power-up. It displays a full-screen call to action 
   that shows when visitors land on your site. Encourage your visitors to join your
   email list, check out your popular blog post … the possibilities are endless!
 * Selection Sharer updates, now you can decide which sharing options to show, love
   LinkedIn but hate Facebook? No worries, we got you covered!
 * Having a lot of non-returning traffic? This would have started to fill up your
   database with single visitor records. We’re testing an option to auto clean tracking
   records for people who don’t return. Resulting in a significant speed improvement!(
   we already did some rigid testing, but just be sure to backup your data before
   testing this feature for now)
 * MailChimp has a new API, so we’ve updated it to the latest version to make sure
   everything keeps on working the way it should.
 * Improvements to Scroll Boxes, there were some reports of the cookie setting not
   working properly. Resulting in visitors closing the scroll box and it immediately
   appearing back again. We squashed this bug. Next to that we added the option 
   of “is not” in the custom rules. This mean you can now say “if post is not”, “
   if page is not”, “if post is not in category” and “if post type is not”.
 * A bugfix for a bug discovered by Hans Mensink, somehow the body copy of the welcome
   email was not being saved correctly. Thanks a lot for reporting this one, Hans!
 * Some other small bug fixes and speed improvements.

If you want to be featured in our release notes, all you’ve got to do is sent us
your bugs, and we’ll make sure you get the proper recognition for finding them!

#### 1.4.0

It’s been said that “you can please some of the people all of the time, you can 
please all of the people some of the time. But you can’t please all of the people
all of the time”. Well, today. We’re very proud to continue with our mission of 
pleasing some of the people some of the time with this new release of Inbound Rocket!

In this release, you will find lots of speed improvements, especially during the
on-boarding process. But also for anyone out there who just like to change things
and save their progress 😉

Next to that we’ve added a better way of tracking your visitors for the people using
normal cookies and to top it all of a nice and shiny dashboard widget to track your
lead generating progress straight from the dashboard.

#### 1.3.6

Reminder for next time, never release a new version on the weekend 😉

Sorry for the trouble folks. This release fixes a glitch caused by our 1.3.5 update.
Thank you, Michel, for reporting! It’s now fixed again.

We also made the entire Evercookie process more robust in the process. If your host
doesn’t like Evercookie, we will automatically detect this and disable Evercookie
tracking in favor of normal HTTP Cookies. Have a great start of the week!

#### 1.3.5

Bugs have been smashed. Updates have been made. This update will make your in-depth
lead activity views nice and shiny again 🙂

#### 1.3.4

Minor bug fix for our existing Inbound Rocket users.

#### 1.3.3

Not seeing anything new? That’s because this release is mostly focused on behind
the scene changes especially for our new users starting with Inbound Rocket.

Next to that, existing and new users now have the option to disable Evercookie for
tracking and use a less intrusive way, by using normal HTTP Cookies. And of course,
we had some bug fixes and improvements to make Inbound Rocket faster, better, stronger.

Inbound Rocket went on a weekend retreat, drank some green juice, did lots of yoga
and is coming back to you cleansed and ready to take on the next update. Namaste!

#### 1.3.2

We brainstormed for a long time to come up with a hip and cool way of saying that
this update only has some bug fixes and improvements in the on-boarding process.
This is the best we came up with.

#### 1.3.1

Don’t you hate it, when you’re working for a long time on a new and shiny release
and then at the last minutes some bugs found their way into your code?

It just happened to us.

In this update, we’re getting our hands dirty and dug out the tiny bugs. So, just
a few small bug fixes and plugin improvements then.

#### 1.3

We love it when we’re able to add new features to Inbound Rocket, and today is the
release of a new power-up which a lot of you’ve been waiting for:

Scroll Boxes

With Scroll Boxes, you will have a polite way to ask your visitors for their email
address as they finish reading your latest blog post or when they learn about your
product. It is a power-up that allows you to create boxes which can pop-up or slide-
in at any time and any screen position you want.

**Features**

 * Create boxes containing whatever content you like: shortcodes, links, custom 
   HTML, anything really.
 * Show boxes automatically after scrolling down based on a percentage point or 
   a particular element (like your comment section).
 * Choose the box position: centered or in any corner of the screen.
 * Choose between a fading or sliding animation for showing the box.
 * Customize the box appearance using a few simple color & dimension controls.
 * Only load the box on individual pages, posts, etc.
 * Control how long dismissed boxes should stay hidden.
 * Control whether boxes should show on small screens.

This is the most powerful power-up to date, and we’re sure you will like it as much
as we do!

Let us know what you think about it by dropping us an email at support@inboundrocket.
co, send a message to @inboundrocket on Twitter, or leave a comment on Facebook 
and tell us about all the use cases you have for this power-up.

Oh, and of course, we made squashed some bug and made some performance improvements
on our existing features as well.

Have a fantastic day!

#### 1.2

Yeah, new features!

While we love ourselves some MailChimp, we were under the impression that the other
email providers were a bit under appreciated. We fixed that now by adding not just
one but two new connectors for you to enjoy. How’d you like them apples!

If you’re more of a Campaign Monitor user yourself or you maybe fancy this awesome
plugin for WordPress called Postmatic to send emails to your visitors? We’ve got
you covered. A big shout-out for the team behind Postmatic for this one as well,
for their support in getting this one up and running.

So let’s see, eehm what else did we pack in this release?

 * Performance enhanced in a perfectly legal and organic way
 * You get a Facebook, and you get a Facebook, everybody gets a Facebook! Oh wait,
   even if you’d already had Facebook, now it’s way easier to integrate your page
   into the Selection Sharer
 * The statistics dashboard looked like it was missing something? Yups that’s what
   we thought, made some improvements to make them more clear for you.

That’s it; we’re already hard at work on our new release, which will be packed with
an amazing new power-up. Be sure to keep an eye out for that one!

And as always, we love hearing from you! To provide feedback or get in touch with
us, please join us in our support forums on WordPress, drop us an email at support@inboundrocket.
co, send a message to @inboundrocket on Twitter, or leave a comment on Facebook 
and tell us about the newest tricks you’ve learned.

#### 1.1.4

Thanks to the amazing feedback of Keiran from MadCo, we were able to track down 
a pesky bug affecting some forms like Gravity forms not recording data the way it
should be. No worries, as usual, we took them to their friends in the wild and let
them go again.

If you want to be featured in our release notes, all you’ve got to do is sent us
your bugs and we’ll make sure you get the proper recognition for finding them!

#### 1.1.3

We left a small Git merger in the welcome bar, thanks Jason from Postmatic for spotting
it! It’s gone now 😉

#### 1.1.2

There a three types of bugs that are gone now:

 * Fixed: Thanks to Danny Brown for noticing a bug in the Selection Sharer, it’s
   now fixed and working properly again
 * Fixed: While working on a knowledge base to help give you some answer to questions
   you might have (now live at http://inboundrocket.co/support/), we noticed a bug
   in the contacts section. No worries, it’s gone now
 * And the uh, …uh, what was the third one again? Let’s see… Selection Sharer, …
   Contacts, and the uh… oh wait the third one was a small feature update as requested
   by the awesome Mr. Brown. From now on, you can choose to have the Welcome Bar
   shown of mobile, on the desktop or both if that’s your thing.

Rate us five stars and we’ll have a drink in your honor. Because it’s always 5 o’clock
somewhere!

#### 1.1.1

We’ve captured some bugs that were bothering some new and existing users, took them
to the wild and let them go so they won’t be bothering you again!

 * Fixed: a glitch during database install for new users
 * Fixed: duplication of lead lists for some users

#### 1.1

Just in time for the new year, we wanted to thank all of you, our amazing users,
for the feedback we received for our first release. You’re the reason we get to 
show up to work on this and do what we love, and we never forget that.

After our initial release, you’ve been asking for a couple of new features which
have been covered by this update.

The first thing this release includes is multilingual support. Thanks to some amazing
friends we can already say this version includes Spanish, French, Dutch and German
translations. We want to give a special shoutout to Yelitza, Delphine, Emma and 
Kathleen, who helped us greatly with getting these translations done. Want to help
out by translating it into your local language? Give us a shout at hello@inboundrocket.
co

The second new item in this release is a new power-up that helps connect your Inbound
Rocket installation to MailChimp. With this power-up, you can automatically synchronize
all your new leads to your MailChimp lists (different MailChimp lists for each lead
list are supported). This one has been one of greatest requests so we sure think
you will like this one.

Lastly, we made some changes to the overall codebase. Making it smaller and, even
more, secure than it already was, squashing some small bugs in the process. This
one is more of an “under the hood” fix, but it will improve the overall experience
for sure.

Enjoy the update!

2016 is going to be an amazing year, with lots of awesomeness coming from us to 
you, so keep on sending in that feedback and those requests!

#### 1.0.5

Just in time for the weekend we squashed a small bug for people using the welcome
bar power-up. Despite there being none left, we still squashed some 😛

#### 1.0.4

Thanks Norbert for spotting another minor bug in there! This release includes two
smaller bug fixes which made the plugin throw some errors when you were using Elegant
Themes. Sorry for that, but thankfully it was quickly fixed 🙂

If you got suggestions or want to report problems, please do reach out! We’re eager
to fix them. <3

#### 1.0.3

 * corrected the footer links, they now point to the correct place on wordpress.
   org

#### 1.0.2

 * fix Evercookies minified code

#### 1.0.1

One day after our initial release, the award for finding the first bug goes to André!
Thanks a lot André, for finding this one!

 * Fixed a small bug preventing the proper uninstallation of the plugin
 * Fixed a bug to make the plugin compatible with PHP 5.2.x

This means that if you’re running an older version of PHP we now got you covered
from 5.2.x and upwards!
