I am not saying the plugin is “bad written” – but it is two years old. * Everything here occasionally updates for a reason, a lot of features were deprecated in PHP 5.3.x and that came out in 2013 now imagine a plugin written in 2009. * Forum: [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/reviews/) In reply to: [[Socializer!] A great plugin for the majority of users, now even better!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/a-great-plugin-for-the-majority-of-users-now-even-better/) * [jlee2](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jlee2/) * (@jlee2) * [11 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/a-great-plugin-for-the-majority-of-users-now-even-better/#post-7866364) * if it is not a review then why did you submit it in the **WordPress › Support» Reviews **? you also gave your **own plugin** 5 stars * Forum: [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/reviews/) In reply to: [[Socializer!] A great plugin for the majority of users, now even better!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/a-great-plugin-for-the-majority-of-users-now-even-better/) * [jlee2](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jlee2/) * (@jlee2) * [11 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/a-great-plugin-for-the-majority-of-users-now-even-better/#post-7866357) * why are you submitting a review on your own plugin ? this is not cool man * Forum: [Requests and Feedback](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/requests-and-feedback/) In reply to: [Removing old plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/removing-old-plugins/) * Thread Starter [jlee2](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jlee2/) * (@jlee2) * [11 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/removing-old-plugins/#post-5062311) * > I do. Not all plugins (especially if they are well coded in the first place) > require updating with every WordPress update. * but even well coded Plugins need update. Here are the update dates for top WordPress plugins : * ``` Jetpack - 2014-6-18 bbPress - 2014-6-6 Google XML Sitemaps - 2014-6-3 WP Super Cache - 2014-4-17 Contact Form 7 - 2014-5-12 All in One SEO Pack - 2014-6-17 ``` * all of these Plugins have been updated in the past few months. * My suggestion is to remove any Plugin which has not been updated for several years or if they use any functions which have been deprecated. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Can't seem to update to 3.9.1 due to missing file on WordPress Server](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-seem-to-update-to-391-due-to-missing-file-on-wordpress-server/) * [jlee2](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jlee2/) * (@jlee2) * [11 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-seem-to-update-to-391-due-to-missing-file-on-wordpress-server/#post-5065235) * have you tried to upgrade manually? * Forum: [Requests and Feedback](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/requests-and-feedback/) In reply to: [Removing old plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/removing-old-plugins/) * Thread Starter [jlee2](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jlee2/) * (@jlee2) * [11 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/removing-old-plugins/#post-5062242) * to be honest I don’t think there is a plugin that necessarily doesn’t require any update. WordPress occasionally deprecate functions, so I think it is a good idea for the Plugins author to convert and replace. * It is just a thought, I think instead of having thousands of outdated plugins, it is better to have hundred which are updated and secure. * Forum: [Requests and Feedback](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/requests-and-feedback/) In reply to: [Removing old plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/removing-old-plugins/) * Thread Starter [jlee2](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jlee2/) * (@jlee2) * [11 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/removing-old-plugins/#post-5062226) * I think anything which has not been updated since 2012 should be removed Viewing 13 replies - 1 through 13 (of 13 total)
