<p>Removes the “suggestions” that some plugins insert in the plugin search inside of WordPress.</p>
<p>At the beginning of April 2019, some plugins have started to insert results in the plugin search of WordPress. This plugin helps you to hide these “suggestions”. If you install and activate this plugin the WordPress plugin search inside of your WordPress will only show the organic results and no promoted ones.</p>
<p>The most popular plugins that add these “suggestions” are JetPack and WooCommerce.</p>
<ul>
<li>
<p>Version 7.1 of Jetpack added featured suggestions to plugin search results: “If a user searches for a plugin that has a feature that is already offered by Jetpack, the plugin will insert an artificial (and dismissible) search result into the first plugin card slot, identifying the corresponding Jetpack feature”.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Version 3.6 of WooCommerce added “Marketplace Suggestions”: “contextual mentions of official extensions that may be relevant to a customer”.</p>
</li>
</ul>
<blockquote>
<p>In the first version we hide the “suggestions” of Jetpack, WooCommerce and the <a href="https://github.com/tinyhelp/tinyhelp" rel="nofollow ugc">tinyhelp project</a> but we will add more as we notice them.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>If you install a plugin that injects ads in the WordPress plugin search of your WordPress, please send it to us so that we can include it in the plugin. Please note that we can only hide these “suggestions” from plugins that have a filter to hide them. Just send us the plugin and we will have a look: <a href="https://apasionados.es/contacto/index.php?desde=wordpress-org-remove-suggestions-from-plugin-search-results" rel="nofollow ugc">send us an email</a>.</p>

<p>Most websites have no memory. Visitors return and see the same content with no recognition of what they’ve already explored. LekTrail changes that.</p>
<p><strong>For content sites</strong>: Show readers which articles they started but didn’t finish, and suggest new content based on their history.</p>
<p><strong>For e-commerce</strong>: Display recently viewed products so customers can easily return to items they were considering.</p>
<p><strong>For courses and documentation</strong>: Track progress through lessons or guides, showing what’s completed and what’s next.</p>
<h4>How It Works</h4>
<p>LekTrail tracks when visitors scroll through your content:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Viewed</strong>: Posts they started reading</li>
<li><strong>Completed</strong>: Posts they scrolled to the end (configurable threshold)</li>
<li><strong>Suggestions</strong>: Unread posts based on your configuration</li>
</ul>
<p>The widget displays three sections: “Continue Reading”, “Completed”, and “Suggested Reading”.</p>
<h4>Two Tracking Modes</h4>
<p><strong>localStorage Mode (Default)</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Works for all visitors, no login required</li>
<li>Data stored in browser, completely private</li>
<li>Optional consent banner</li>
<li>Data clears if browser storage is cleared</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Server-Side Mode</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Requires logged-in users (WordPress users or membership plugin)</li>
<li>Reading history persists across devices</li>
<li>Useful for membership sites, courses, or personalized experiences</li>
<li>Anonymous visitors see suggestions only</li>
</ul>
<h4>Features</h4>
<ul>
<li>Gutenberg block and shortcode support</li>
<li>Works with any post type (posts, pages, products, custom types)</li>
<li>Configurable scroll threshold to mark content as “completed”</li>
<li>Show/hide excerpts and thumbnails</li>
<li>Suggestion order: random, recent, or related</li>
<li>Category filters for suggestions</li>
<li>Customizable labels (multilingual ready)</li>
<li>Optional consent requirement with built-in banner</li>
<li>Performance caching for suggestions</li>
</ul>
<h4>Development</h4>
<p>Source code and build tools are available on <a href="https://github.com/raulprdev/lektrail" rel="nofollow ugc">GitHub</a>.</p>
