WordPress Plugin Repository - A Guide to the Process that awaits any developer

22/9/2015

 
WordPress has come a long way in 2015 to make the Plugin developer process transparent and efficient. Using their Wordpress plugin developer guidance is now clear and we've decided to outline the process below having gone through it with our own Plugins. 

Quite simply, the process is as followed:
  1. Sign up to WordPress Developer (the easy part)
  2. Make sure your plugin, for all intents and purposes, is working!
  3. Be sure to have not just a ReadMe file (required), but screenshots to assist users (see this example from a New York developer) and a succinct notes about the plugin and its purpose. The more questions you can pre-empt, the better not just for your support team but also for the users. 
  4. WAIT for the review from the WordPress team - our experience is that it takes about 2 months. Yikes. Please be patient. 
  5. Once approved, you’ll then have access to a Subversion Repository where you’ll store your plugin. This is the final part of the onboarding - well done if you've got this far without too many headaches.
  6. Ongoing, it's a great idea to encourage getting your Plugin reviewed - you can incentivize users to do this so they can leave reviews (rating 1-5 stars).

With 42,000+ Plugins currently live, your contribution to the Wordpress is warmly anticipated :)
