Comment (by jb510):
Is there any reference doc / API for interacting with .org? This is
really way beyond my skills but I'd still be willing to try to get
something started...
FWIW,
A rating URL looks like this:
http:// wordpress.org/extend/plugins/{plugin-
slug}/?rate={1-5}&topic_id={#####}&_wpnonce={##########}
Compatibility URL:
http:// wordpress.org/extend/plugins/{plugin-
slug}/?compatibility[version]={wp_version}1&compatibility[topic_version]={plugin_version}&compatibility[compatible]={0
doesn't or 1 works}
Things to think about:
* In order to rate a plugin, one needs to be logged in to .org. Do we
save those login credentials as part of their user profile or require them
to login at the time of rating/reporting? Does that authorization get
saved somewhere permanently or in a transient? (this is the stuff I have
no idea on how to handle)
* When an update is available we should probably display the report
compatibility of the update.
* I've never liked having the "Average Star" rating appear next to and
separately from "your rating" on .org so I've proposed combining them or
not showing average rating. I don't know that we need to show average
rating to someone that has already installed the plugin.
* If ratings and capability is show in it's own column we probably need
a screen options settings to show/hide the ratings column like the
description can be, sites built for professional clients will probably
often want to hide this.
I've attached a first draft mockup.
