• hello,

    I’d like to know if a plugin to obtain a categorized/tree list of plugins in the admin backed does exist.

    to be more clear, I usually install on test sites a lot of plugins that do more or less the same thing to experiment with them and see which ones fit better my needs.

    it will be useful to have in the admin backend, instead of a simple alphabetical list, a customized categorized list/tree of the plugins, for instance:

    – plugins that deal with user rights
    – plugins that let use jquery ui in page/posts
    – plugins to manage newsletters

    etc.

    I’ve tried to search for that, but the serach is complicated by the fact that if I search for “plugin to have a category view of plugins” or similar I obtain a lot of nice plugins dealing with categories and tree-views of pages/posts, but not for categorization of plugins.

    does someone know if such a thing exists? it will be nice but not required if one could also activate/deactivate plugins in this category/treeview.

    thanks.

  • I’d be very surprised if such a plugin existed. In order for it to work effectively, every single plugin would have to categorise itself via something like the readme.txt using a very strict set of rules/classifications. And I just don’t see that every really working. The rough breakdown that’s shown in the lower sidebar of http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/ is about as good as you’re ever going to get.
