Hi fellow plugin authors,
Ever wondered why your plugin shows a popularity of '0' (on
http://www.dokuwiki.org/plugins)?
One reason might be the plugin's page name is incorrect.
I wondered why the 'box' plugin shows a popularity of 0/5963. The reason
was the plugin's page was http://www.dokuwiki.org/plugin:boxes whereas
the plugin's name is *box* and not *boxes*.
I just moved the page from plugin:boxes to plugin:box (and added a
redirect and fixed backlinks and other links I found). And behold, the
popularity jumped to 646/5963!
But I also found other pages that are named incorrectly, e.g.
plugin:div_span_shorthand (which are two plugins and should have two
appropriate pages, or even better should reside in one single plugin) or
plugin:side_note (which should be plugin:sidenote) or plugin:boxes_mod
(which is really also called 'box' but shouldn't be; therefore it shows
up in the 'box' statistics as well).
I guess, there are a few more ...
So, if you'd like the popularity of your plugin to show a realistic
number, you should check the page names of your plugins. They should be
exactly the same as the folder name where your plugin resides in.
Thanks,
Anika
