Thanks for the feedback! RFE 1 Good input! Look for this on the next version due out soon. RFE 2 This is a valid requirement. The implementation might be difficult given the license field is a String. I'll research ways to at least limit the search text to a particular field like "license". RFE 1 - implemented. RFE #1 is still valid. There is no easy way to filter out free plugins from the commercial ones. Question: how do we find that plugin is commercial? Based on price>0 or on the license type? For example License type is freetext field in the plugin form, so it would be uneasy to tell by that. honza I am afraid that this would require adding a brand new plugin property. Other opinions anyone? I agree that this requires new property. It came to my mind as well. Implementing this is not big deal. I only wonder of how to set that for existing plugins. Maybe based on the price? I mean if price>0 set it as commercial. |
