Description Roman Strobl 2007-03-02 16:06:20 UTC 
It would be really nice to show all plug-ins sorted by rating and number of
downloads. Right now I need to choose a specific category first. I would like to
have that functionality for all plug-ins.
Comment 1 Petr Jiricka 2007-03-02 22:21:17 UTC 
+1, I agree this is a very needed feature.
Comment 2 David Botterill 2007-03-02 22:31:14 UTC 
You can currently see ALL plugins by leaving the search field empty and
searching. When the list comes up, you can sort on name, rating, date, and
downloads.

Is this what you are looking for or do you mean something different?

BTW, I noticed the date sort is ASC and should be DESC.
Comment 3 Petr Jiricka 2007-03-02 22:54:48 UTC 
Thanks, this works fine, but I am looking for something more discoverable. This
way is not obvious. I think there should be a "All" pseudocategory in the cloud
on the right.
Comment 4 David Botterill 2008-06-12 16:44:55 UTC 
This is implemented in the current version
