BragDeal Lead Manager

BragDeal Lead Manager stores a normalized copy of new lead submissions in dedicated database tables. It is intentionally focused on lead display and management. It contains no spam scoring, spam logs, CAPTCHA controls, CRM integrations, outbound messaging, or marketing automation. Supported providers:

• Contact Form 7
• MetForm
• Elementor Pro Forms
• Gravity Forms
• WPForms, including Lite when wpforms_process_complete supplies submitted fields
• Fluent Forms
• Ninja Forms
• Forminator (free and Pro), including historical import of existing entries Free includes unlimited lead capture, a combined inbox, search, status/date filters, pagination, per-user custom columns, field mapping, basic lead editing, unread alerts, original submission snapshots, Trash/restore, role access and form capture controls. Its three-dot menu separates Edit/Delete from CRM actions, which link to Pro when locked.

BragDeal Lead Manager Pro is a separate licensed add-on. It unlocks internal notes, Called/Follow Up/Booked/Lost actions, follow-up and booking dates, lost reasons, bulk status updates and CRM date columns. Free must remain active alongside Pro. A Free/Pro badge identifies the current edition; installing and activating the add-on exposes Leads > License. Previously saved CRM data is preserved when returning to Free. Basic field edits in Free cannot reset saved status, dates or notes. Existing notes remain readable. Free does not contact a licensing server.

Upgrading from BragDeal Leads or All-In-One Leads CRM 1.2.3: first keep the delete-on-uninstall setting OFF, deactivate Pro and the old plugin, then remove the old plugin before installing this renamed Free plugin. Existing lead tables, settings and the cleanup schedule are migrated to the new storage names automatically on first load. Install this Free release and reactivate the compatible Pro add-on. Do not activate both old and renamed Free plugins together.

1. Upload bragdeal-lead-manager-1.2.4.zip in Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin.
2. Activate BragDeal Lead Manager.
3. Open Leads > Forms and click Rescan Forms.
4. Review detected field mappings and capture settings.
5. Open Leads > Settings to configure rows, retention, uninstall behaviour, and role access.
6. To upgrade, get BragDeal Lead Manager Pro at https://licensehub.bragdeal.cloud/lead-manager/, install it alongside Free and enter the matching License Hub key under Leads > License.
7. If you previously installed BragDeal Leads under the bragdeal-leads folder, follow the migration paragraph above before installing this renamed plugin.

1.2.7

• Fixed: a submission whose name, email, phone, page title or field label was longer than its storage column (for example a name over 255 characters) failed to save and was silently dropped. Values are now trimmed to the column limit and the lead is kept.
• Added Forminator support: live capture, form discovery, field mapping and historical import of existing entries.

1.2.6

• The Forms page now reflects the forms that currently exist: a form deleted from its form plugin (or whose plugin was deactivated) is hidden instead of lingering, while its leads stay in the inbox.
• Hidden technical fields posted by anti-spam add-ons (for example bdsg_form_name, bdsg_form_id and bdsg_schema) are no longer stored or shown on Lead Details.
• The Called, Follow Up, Booked and Lost stat boxes and filters appear only while Pro is active.

1.2.5

• The Forms page now rescans the installed form plugins on every load, so forms created after the first scan appear without a manual rescan.
• Every Upgrade to Pro link now opens the BragDeal Lead Manager Pro page at licensehub.bragdeal.cloud.
• The admin-menu icon is now the Lead Manager mark itself, tinted to the admin colour scheme, instead of a generic Dashicon.

1.2.4

• Renamed the plugin to BragDeal Lead Manager.
• Moved every stored identifier (tables, options, schedule, admin actions) to the bdlm_ prefix, with automatic migration of existing data.

1.2.3

• Interim rename release, superseded by 1.2.4.

1.2.2

• Added WordPress personal-data export and erasure for matching lead records, including original snapshots, notes and history.
• Prepared custom-table identifiers and values; added site-scoped read caching with invalidation on every plugin mutation.
• Corrected successful Contact Form 7 capture and storage opt-out, MetForm hook arguments, and Fluent Forms ORM discovery/imports.
• Scoped user column preferences by site and corrected uninstall cache cleanup, capability restoration and large-network pagination.
• Kept premium CRM date/reason column implementations in the separate Pro add-on.
• Corrected localization, metadata and production package line endings.

1.2.1

• Moved CRM persistence, note/status handlers and status-action JavaScript into the Pro add-on.
• Free remains the capture, storage and basic lead-management foundation.
• Corrected Free readme tag count and license metadata.

1.2.0

• Grouped, accessible three-dot action menus that stay inside the viewport and outside table clipping.
• Renamed the status filter default to All Leads.
• Free core and licensed Pro CRM add-on; server-side CRM write gates.
• Top edition badge, navigation tabs and bottom Pro feature promotion.
• Preserved existing CRM data on downgrade; basic edits never overwrite CRM fields.

1.1.0

• Custom dashboard styling, status summary cards, refined tables, responsive layouts and updated detail/forms/settings screens.
• Unified inbox across every form. Removed form and provider dropdown filters.
• Red sidebar count for unread, non-trashed leads. Refreshes every 30 seconds while an admin tab is visible.
• Opening a lead or updating its status marks it read for the shared inbox. Merely viewing the list does not clear unread leads.
• Existing New leads start unread after upgrade; existing leads in other statuses start read.

1.0.0

• Initial release.
• Seven new-submission adapters.
• Lead table, dynamic columns, filters, search and statuses.
• Details, notes, history, original snapshots and lifecycle actions.
• Form discovery/mapping/capture controls.
• Gravity Forms historical batch import.
• Capability and role controls.
