    If you want a form builder, you can use profit builder. It hard to use, but useful :)

    Good list of WP plugins, I use most of them, although I don't agree that Disqus is the best commenting platform.

    Thanks. I should have said an alternative comments system.

    Why do you think it's preferable to use Disqus over the default comment platform? I'm curious.

    Oh don't get me wrong I think Disqus has its benefits but also substantial drawbacks,

    The benefits I find:
    The back-end functionality and customization.
    The reduced loading times when loading a page with many comments.
    The built-in notification features bring people back to the site. Though you can add these with other plugins.
    You also get occasional visits from users who find your site on Disqus profiles.

    But it does come at the expense of ease of use and does result in fewer comments. So it's a trade-off.

    Do you prefer the default comments or another plugin?

    Yeah I prefer the default comments. It's easier to leave comments for visitors, and easier to manage comments as the admin.

    If loading times are an issue, you can look into a caching plugin to speed up the site.

    WooCommerce is definitely one that you should be considering!

    Some of my favourites:

    Widget options - defines which page or post any widget can appear. Similar to the core 'block' module in Drupal. As a bonus, it gives you additional CSS id or classes for theme customization if you need ones.

    Loginizer - security; prevent brute force attack. It is not in par with Wordfence (as in features), in fact it does only one job and does it nicely: prevent brute force attack.

    Child Theme Configurator - create child theme / copy files from parent without having to go to file manager or FTP. Unfortunately the free version doesn't allow you to create a new file or rename an existing file from within WP Dashboard. Useful for a few lines edit in the child theme.

    Counterize - Doesn't provide many useful thing to your site, but it gives you an interesting overview of your site visits: from which IP, which device, which OS, most visited URL, exit URL, etc.
