PLUGIN INFORMATION
What the plugin does
Plugin capabilities
- Frontend client for whoknew.io ranking service; keyword scans, readme analysis, ranking calculations, and keyword research are performed exclusively on whoknew.io servers (plugin contains no ranking/analysis logic).
- Keyword Scan workflow: enter a plugin slug and keyword to see the plugin’s exact position in WordPress.org plugin directory search results; scans consume API credits.
- Readme Optimizer workflow: analyzes a plugin’s readme.txt against 7 indexed readme fields (name, slug, tags, short description, description, author, contributors) and indicates which fields contain the keyword and which do not, with field-by-field suggestions.
- Repository ranking explanation: provides a “How Ranking Works” explainer describing the repository’s two-phase algorithm (relevance score and quality score) as documented by WordPress.org plugin directory source code.
- External service connectivity behavior: no passive data sent on page load; external calls occur on actions such as running a scan/readme analysis, clicking “Test connection” in Settings, and once per day via WordPress Cron to sync API credit balance locally.
- External API usage and caching model: during ranking scans, whoknew.io queries WordPress.org Plugin Directory API endpoints (plugins/info/1.2/ and query_plugins) from its own servers; results are cached on whoknew.io servers for up to 6 hours and shared across users scanning the same keyword.
- Client-side WordPress.org lookups: when looking up a plugin by slug or name in Scan/Readme Optimizer tabs, the browser contacts api.wordpress.org directly to fetch public plugin metadata; when loading readme.txt, the WordPress installation fetches it directly from plugins.svn.wordpress.org.
