    Hi Mike:

    This looks like a very useful plugin I was looking for, thank you!!!

    I would suggest some new features, if you don’t mind.

    1. Could you add the “WordPress.org Plugin Page” link? “Visit plugin site” is similar, but it takes you to the author’s web site instead of WordPress plugin page. You may want to replace the plugin download link you already have with “WordPress.org Plugin Page” link. Why would I want to download the plugin which I have installed already?

    2. Is it possible to add a user editable note field? There are tons of plugins and I would like to be able to install a plugin and add my own notes.

    3. Is it possible to add the same plugin info you have for the installed plugin into the Search Results when looking for a plugin? Right now we have only Name, Version, Rating and Description fields shown in the search results. To get the other fields I have to click the “Details” link, sometimes only to find out that the plugin on the top of my search list is 3 years old and not compatible.

    Thank you again!!

    Hi Greybox,

    Those are some awesome suggestions- thank you!

    I especially like the idea of a note field- although I’m not entirely sure if that fits the scope of this plugin as it is or not. I’ll mull it over; either way good thinking.

    I agree that points #1 and #3 would be obvious improvements, and I will look into adding these into a future release for sure.

    I hope that you’ve otherwise found the plugin useful!

    All the best,
    Mike

    I am very glad you like the ideas! #1 seems to be the easiest to implement, but I am not an expert.

    The name of the plugin is “More Plugin Info”. A user note added is also more plugin info. I think it fits the scope of the plugin 100%!

    I am looking forward to seeing the new release of your wonderful plugin, even if it is only one little change at a time

    Thanks again for the practical feedback.

    I’m going to go ahead and mark this ticket as closed, and as soon as time permits will continue working on the next release which will include one or more of these features.

    All the best,
    Mike
