\"WordPressAs you will already know if you’re a regular reader of my posts here on WPMU, I’ve rarely got a bad thing to say about free WordPress plugin developers. If it weren’t for these selfless folk, my blog<\/a> would be a shell of its true self.<\/p>\n

I also happen to be a big fan of irony, which is why I like the rather clumsily-named WPORG Repo Plugins<\/a>…plugin. The idea of a plugin developer using a plugin to showcase their plugins amuses me. But then perhaps I am easily amused.<\/p>\n

That shouldn’t however detract from the fact that this plugin will actually be rather useful for plenty of developers – and for WordPress fans in general. Its functionality is simple enough – it will return a list of any particular developer’s plugins (as listed on WordPress.org<\/a>) in a widget. So rather than manually listing your plugins, it takes care of it dynamically, as such:<\/p>\n

You can list plugins from any developer, so this potentially holds value to anyone<\/em> interested in WordPress plugins. \u00a0Listing your favorite’s developers plugin is made easy.<\/p>\n

What makes WPORG Repo Plugins even handier is that you can customize exactly what information is displayed via shortcodes:<\/p>\n

It would be nice to see further functionality, such as the ability to sort plugins by number of downloads and\/or ratings, and the ability to list plugins via a shortcode with posts and pages. A version for theme developers would be good too.<\/p>\n
