Plugin directory kickoff; call for test plugins

james · November 11, 2019, 10:38pm

We’ve had a lot of discussion over the past few months, now it’s time to start work on the plugin directory and on v2 of ClassicPress!

One of the first things we’ll need is a set of plugins to test using the initial directory. We’ll use these to develop and refine a prototype of the plugin directory. Regular users won’t see this effort until we’re ready to do an alpha release, but this is still a great way for plugin developers to help us out behind the scenes!

To start, I’ve pulled the list of plugins from the Plugins built specifically for ClassicPress thread.

If you’re pinged in this list, please respond below and let us know whether you’re OK with your plugin being listed in an initial prototype of our directory!

If you’re not in this list, but you have a plugin you’d like us to consider including, that’s OK too! Requirements are, briefly:

The plugin is hosted on GitHub with the code available
The plugin is licensed under GPL (v2 or v3+ at your choosing)
There is at least one published release using the GitHub releases mechanism.

If you’re not sure whether your plugin(s) meet these requirements, don’t worry, one of the goals of this exercise is to test our error handling implementation, so we’ll sort it out

More than happy to help.

I have new versions of all of them which I have meant to release, but not got round to yet which we can use for testing as well.

I have one ready - built as addon to a ClassicPress theme I’m developing.
Repo is here: https://github.com/zulfgani/featherlite-controls

Im fine with it, just gotta make a github Release I guess. I was planning to do that soon anyway, so just moving that forward a bit.

Are “research” plugins still under development to be included? If so…

And we were going to ask about Classic Commerce too.

Adding these to the list, thanks everyone:

https://github.com/zulfgani/featherlite-controls
https://github.com/ClassicPress-research/classicpress-seo
GitHub - ClassicPress/classic-commerce: A simple but powerful e-commerce platform built for ClassicPress. Forked from WooCommerce and compatible with many Woo extensions.
GitHub - bahiirwa/latest-github-release: Automatically add a download link to the latest Github repo release zips with a shortcode like [latest_github_release user="Github" repo="years-since"]
GitHub - bahiirwa/upgrade-for-unattach-re-attach-media-attachments: Unattach and Re-attach images and other attachments from within the media library. The plugin is similar to its predecessors but security and code refactoring has been done. This has plans of being maintained and grown basing on requests of users.

Dropping in a few of mine, too:

UI SSL Enforcer: GitHub - ginsterbusch/ui-ssl-enforcer: Enforce SSL URLs using WordPress filters and permanent redirects. No configuration required.
UI Leaflet Integration: GitHub - ginsterbusch/ui-leaflet-integration: The most less excessive Leaflet map integration. Plugin for WordPress. Keeping it simple with a shortcode. Uses the latest Leaflet libary
JSON Feed for ClassicPress: GitHub - ginsterbusch/jsonfeed-cp: Adds feeds in JSON Feed format. Fork of the original JSON Feed plugin (https://github.com/manton/jsonfeed-wp/). Partial rewrite for ClassicPress & compatible CMSes.

I’m aware that UI Leaflet Integration is a bit outdated, but I’m going to push the latest updates over the course of this week.
