href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130423102619/http://make.wordpress.org/plugins/2013/04/16/be-the-author/">Be the Author… </a></h2><p>So, I’ve had this working for a while, but not a lot of people noticed, so I figured I’d spell it out explicitly.</p> <p>WordPress.org plugin pages have special magic Google markup. This is what allows many of the Google tricks we do for plugin pages to work. If you’ve ever searched for one of our plugins on Google, you may have noticed that it says it’s “free” as well as showed the rating as stars and such. This is all using Google’s Rich Snippets functionality with markup from the schema.org specifications.</p> <p>One of the magic tricks we do is to point to your WordPress.org Profiles page as the “author” of the plugin. It’s your plugin, after all, and you deserve the credit. But promoting the authorship is only half the picture, it helps if Google also knows who you are as an author. Then they can do something clever too:</p> <p><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20130423102619im_/http://make.wordpress.org/plugins/files/2013/04/googleauthor.png" alt="googleauthor" width="531" height="155" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-153"/></p> <p>This is a sample entry for one of my plugins from the <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130423102619/http://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/richsnippets">Rich Snippets Testing tool</a>. The photo and authorship info may not show up on every search result that gets my plugin up on Google’s search results, but it certainly doesn’t hurt. But to get this information to be capable of showing, Google needs to connect your profile and user information on WordPress.org with a profile and user information from Google+. To do this, there’s two steps:</p> <p><strong>Step 1</strong>: Edit your WordPress.org profile to include a link to your Google+ account. You can do this yourself, and you can see how I did it on <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130423102619/http://profiles.wordpress.org/Otto42/">my Profiles page</a>. I included this link in my “About Me” section: <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130423102619/https://plus.google.com/100201852715113506716?rel=author" rel="nofollow">https://plus.google.com/100201852715113506716?rel=author</a></p> <p>Note that the ?rel=author bit is important, that’s what tells Google that you are the author here and links your G+ account to this page.</p> <p><strong>Step 2</strong>: Tell Google that you contribute to WordPress.org. To do this, go to your Google+ Profile. In the “Links” section you will find a “Contributor To” area. You need to add two links to this area:</p> <ul> <li>The first link will be a link to your own profile page, on <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130423102619/http://profiles.wordpress.org/" rel="nofollow">http://profiles.wordpress.org</a>. This completes the connection and tells Google that you and the profile are the same person. Because your plugin page automatically links to your profile with the author information, making this connection creates an indirect authorship connection to all your plugins.</li> <li>The second link you need to make is a link to <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130423102619/http://wordpress.org/" rel="nofollow">http://wordpress.org</a> itself. This is because Google wants there to be an explicit connection on the same domain name (not a subdomain), and so this link is required. And hey, you’re contributing to WordPress.org every time you update your plugin or theme, so well done there! <img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20130423102619im_/http://make.wordpress.org/plugins/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" class="wp-smiley"/> </li> </ul> <p>After doing both these steps, you can try your plugin’s URL in the Rich Snippets tool yourself, and voila, you’ll see the magic. Note that you may not see it in the actual Google search results for weeks, and it may never appear. Google shows snippets like these on terms of their own choosing. All you’re doing here is to give them the data that lets their engine do the magic, if it can.</p> </div> <div class="discussion" style="display: none"> <p> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130423102619/http://wpdaily.co/authorship-google-plus/" rel="external nofollow" class="url">Leveling Up Your Authorship Skills with Google Plus - WP Daily</a>, <img alt="" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20130423102619im_/http://0.gravatar.com/avatar/0994d5e2e158a24ba8017c2525d78263?s=16&d=http%3A%2F%2F0.gravatar.com%2Favatar%2Fad516503a11cd5ca435acc9bb6523536%3Fs%3D16&r=G" class="avatar avatar-16 photo" height="16" width="16"/> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130423102619/http://profiles.wordpress.org/otto42/" rel="external nofollow" class="url">Samuel Wood (Otto)</a>, <img alt="" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20130423102619im_/http://0.gravatar.com/avatar/2c813af1d59a8bcb0c76b51d154bc46b?s=16&d=http%3A%2F%2F0.gravatar.com%2Favatar%2Fad516503a11cd5ca435acc9bb6523536%3Fs%3D16&r=G" class="avatar avatar-16 photo" height="16" width="16"/> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130423102619/http://www.mertyazicioglu.com/" rel="external nofollow" class="url">Mert Yazicioglu</a>, and 16 others are discussing. <a href="#" class="show-comments">Toggle Comments</a> </p> </div> <div class="bottom-of-entry"> </div> <ul id="comments-152" class="commentlist inlinecomments"> <li id="comment-34048" class="comment byuser comment-author-gabriel-reguly even thread-even depth-1"> <img alt="" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20130423102619im_/http://1.gravatar.com/avatar/9de4f7d0e7670fcab313d8a3aab5a3c6?s=32&d=http%3A%2F%2F1.gravatar.com%2Favatar%2Fad516503a11cd5ca435acc9bb6523536%3Fs%3D32&r=G" class="avatar avatar-32 photo" height="32" width="32"/> <h4> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130423102619/http://omniwp.com.br/" rel="external nofollow" class="url">Gabriel Reguly</a> <span class="meta"> <abbr title="2013-04-16T16:24:01Z">4:24 pm <em>on</em> April 16, 2013</abbr> <span class="actions"> <a class="thepermalink" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130423102619/http://make.wordpress.org/plugins/2013/04/16/be-the-author/#comment-34048" title="Permalink">Permalink</a> | <a rel="nofollow" class="comment-reply-link" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130423102619/http://make.wordpress.org/plugins/2013/04/16/be-the-author/#respond" title="Reply" onclick="return addComment.moveForm("commentcontent-34048", "34048", "respond", "152")">Reply</a> </span> </span> </h4> <div id="commentcontent-34048" class="commentcontent"><p>Wonderful Otto!

Would you know what to look for and how to fix the problems? Well, a fun challenge has arrived that will test, and hopefully improve, your knowledge in this crucial area of plugin development. I have developed a small, bug ridden plugin that requires a rigorous security review and suggestions for fixes.</p> <p>The code is available from <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130423102619/https://gist.github.com/joncave/5348689" rel="nofollow">https://gist.github.com/joncave/5348689</a>.</p> <p>This is an incomplete plugin that aims to log any failed login attempts. Unfortunately, it actually harms the security of a site rather than enhancing it. All of the interesting parts are in <code>vulnerable.php</code>, so you should focus your review there. <strong>Please remember not to run this plugin on any server that is accessible to the internet!</strong></p> <p>If you spot a vulnerability whilst reviewing the code then make a note of the problem, where it’s located and what the problem is. Then come up with a patch that would solve the problem. It might also be beneficial to create a request that would demonstrate the vulnerability which can then be used to test your fix. I hope that this process will help you understand more about vulnerabilities, what sorts of things to look for when reviewing your own code, how to go about coding securely, and how to fix any problems in your own plugins if a flaw is found.</p> <p>If you would like individual feedback on your finding and solutions, and to provide me with some information on which bugs people found and fixed, you can <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130423102619/http://joncave.polldaddy.com/s/intentionally-vulnerable-plugin-review">submit them via this survey</a>. Please refrain from posting any spoilers in the comments for now.</p> <p>In a week or so I will write another post detailing each of the vulnerabilities present in the code and how to fix them.</p> <p>Bonus challenge: with access to a subscriber level account can you find any ways of extracting the data from an option named <code>secret_option</code>?</p> </div> <div class="discussion"

We have relatively few stats that we look at over time to see how we’re growing/changing, and those we do have are largely cobbled together with various combinations of manual labor and scripting. One of the things I want to do this year is get us going in the direction of collecting stats on our work and participation levels, and to make as much of it as possible an automated process. I recognize that this stuff is non-trivial. That said, I can’t create an overall wishlist for Otto to shoot down until we figure out what stats would be good to have. </p> <p>What stats would be useful/helpful/just plain cool to know around your team? This is brainstorming… don’t think about APIs or if/how it could be collected, just throw out ideas in the comments of what information you think it would great to start seeing, say on a monthly basis. List any and all ideas, including stats you are already collecting. I’ll collate all the teams’ ideas and see what the Meta team says we can do.</p> <p><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130423102619/http://make.wordpress.org/plugins/mentions/coffee2code/" class="mention">@coffee2code</a>: As team rep, can you try to rally your group to make suggestions over the coming week?

I meant that I’m using plugins found on the .org directory that contain jQuery Lightbox scripts IN the trunk svn repo hosted on the .org site. Many of those (see related comments) are carrying along scripts that specifically cite licenses that are NOT GPLv2 compatible, like the jQuery Lightbox script you reference in the original post.</p> <p>Now that those client sites are deployed I’m not so interested in that SPECIFIC issue. However my media streaming system will require pieces that are not readily available in GPLv2 format. I guess, based on your response to Mike, that I’ll have to find a way to marginalize those pieces and keep them out of the repo.</p> <p>Is it OK to say “if you want to use feature X” you will need to download “Y”? In my case I’d need a creative way to get the FLV player installed for the client listener. Thinking out loud here… Maybe hooks + filters that look for a “ride along” plugin that simply extends the feature set with “FLV fallback for non-HTML5 browsers”.</p> <p>Sorry for all the posts. I’m working on a big project and was planning on using WordPress as a key piece for the backend & front-end UI elements.

If you haven’t seen the spiel on one of the other team blogs about how team reps/voting/terms work, the longer explanation is after the jump. tl;dr version: time to elect reps for the first half of 2013. This past time it was Mark Riley and Scott Reilly, but since then Mark has stepped back from heavy involvement with plugins so you need at least one new rep.</p> <p>Note: It can’t be folks who are already the team reps for other teams, and it should be folks who want to the responsibility (mostly posting weekly updates on team activity to the weekly updates blog). Since there are some newer members of this group it might be nice for one of them to level up and learn the ropes from Scott? Up to you guys. Anyone interested in being a plugin team rep should leave a comment saying as much so people know who they can/should vote for. Voting is open until December 15, and results will be posted here once voting closes.</p> <p><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130423102619/http://wordpressdotorg.polldaddy.com/s/team-rep-vote-plugins-team">Vote for Plugin Team Reps</a></p> <p> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130423102619/http://make.wordpress.org/plugins/2012/12/09/team-rep-voting/#more-108" class="more-link">(More …)</a></p> </div> <div class="discussion" style="display: none"> <p> <img alt="" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20130423102619im_/http://0.gravatar.com/avatar/edcaf8a5c1dc7c741113d772e767bfc2?s=16&d=http%3A%2F%2F0.gravatar.com%2Favatar%2Fad516503a11cd5ca435acc9bb6523536%3Fs%3D16&r=G" class="avatar avatar-16 photo" height="16" width="16"/> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130423102619/http://pippinsplugins.com/" rel="external nofollow" class="url">mordauk</a>, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130423102619/http://wpdaily.co/voting-core-reps-2013/" rel="external nofollow" class="url">It's That Time Again: Voting for Core Team Reps -

That team doesn’t have very many candidates for potential reps (basically Nacin and I asides from Otto). If all the criteria Jane set forth are followed, it stands to reason I should be the secondary rep for the meta team, requiring me to relinquish my current status as a rep for plugins.</p> <p>Since Mika is most likely continuing on as a rep for the support team (at least for this term), Mark seems to have stepped back from involvement with the plugins team, and Nacin will likely continue as a team rep for core, that pretty much leaves Pippin as a prime team rep candidate.</p> <p>I’m cool with continuing on as a plugins team rep or moving on to the meta team, depending on where interest from others lie. If I remain we can prep Pippin as a secondary rep and follow Jane’s desired rep transition procedure, though leaving Otto as the sole meta team rep. If I switch teams, both plugins reps will be new and one will be simultaneously joining the team and becoming a rep.</p> </div> <ul class="children"> <li id="comment-24834" class="comment byuser comment-author-mordauk even depth-2"> <img alt="" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20130423102619im_/http://0.gravatar.com/avatar/edcaf8a5c1dc7c741113d772e767bfc2?s=32&d=http%3A%2F%2F0.gravatar.com%2Favatar%2Fad516503a11cd5ca435acc9bb6523536%3Fs%3D32&r=G" class="avatar avatar-32 photo" height="32" width="32"/> <h4> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130423102619/http://pippinsplugins.com/" rel="external nofollow" class="url">Pippin (mordauk)</a> <span class="meta"> <abbr title="2012-12-12T06:10:46Z">6:10 am <em>on</em> December 12, 2012</abbr> <span class="actions"> <a class="thepermalink" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130423102619/http://make.wordpress.org/plugins/2012/12/09/team-rep-voting/#comment-24834" title="Permalink">Permalink</a> | <a rel="nofollow" class="comment-reply-link" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130423102619/http://make.wordpress.org/plugins/2012/12/09/team-rep-voting/#respond" title="Reply" onclick="return addComment.moveForm("commentcontent-24834", "24834", "respond", "108")">Reply</a> </span> </span> </h4> <div id="commentcontent-24834" class="commentcontent"><p>I’d prefer to step up as secondary rep, simply because I’m still getting used to being on the team in general.

Since then, we’ve made <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130423102619/http://wordpress.org/news/2012/05/plugins-refreshed/">more changes</a> to the plugin directory and started supporting <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130423102619/http://make.wordpress.org/core/2012/07/04/fun-with-high-dpi-displays/">HiDPI images</a> for those plugin headers as well.</p> <p>As part of that original header update, one thing that was added which I always meant to do more with was the addition of a new “assets” directory at the top level of the plugin SVNs. This is an optional directory that sits alongside the /tags and /trunk directories, and was just used to hold the banner images. Creating a place to put plugin assets which didn’t need to be included in the plugin itself simply made sense to me.</p> <p>It also never made sense to me that the plugin screenshots, which are rarely used by the plugin, needed to be included in the plugin’s ZIP file. Some plugins can use these themselves, certainly, but the majority don’t and it’s just really inflating the size of the plugin to include them.</p> <p>So, starting today, you can put your screenshot files in the assets directory instead of in the main plugin directory.</p> <p>A few notes, for the technically minded:</p> <ul> <li>Screenshot naming conventions have not changed, nor have the readme.txt requirements for their captioning. The naming and behavior is exactly the same, the file can just go into a new place.</li> <li>The old way still works too. If you have your screenshots in the plugin’s “stable” directory, then it will find them there just fine.</li> <li>Screenshots in the assets directory take precedence over screenshots in the plugin’s directory. If you have both, then the assets directory wins. Of course, there’s really no reason to have both, this is just for backwards compatibility.</li> <li>Like everything else in the assets directory, we are serving them through a separate static caching system, and so it may take a few minutes to update when you change them. What this means is that when you put the screenshots in there for the very first time, they may not show up on your page for a few minutes and you’ll just see the captions with no images above them. Please give the proxy some time to retrieve your screenshots and cache them before telling me it’s buggy. It should only take a few minutes. <img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20130423102619im_/http://make.wordpress.org/plugins/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" class="wp-smiley"/> </li> </ul> <p>The ultimate goal, of course, is to reduce the size of the plugin ZIP files being served. By not including the screenshots in the plugin, files are smaller and upgrades are thus speedier for everybody.</p> <p>In the future, if we have a need for more “directory only” files, I expect them all to be in the assets directory as well, for just this sort of reason.</p> </div> <div class="discussion" style="display: none"> <p> <a
