Description
Tag Filters enhances the plugin management screens in the WordPress admin area by adding the ability to filter plugins by their tags.
On the ‘Add New’ plugins screen, it adds a list of tags that are present in the currently displayed plugins. Clicking on a tag will filter the list to show only the plugins with that tag.
On the ‘Installed Plugins’ screen, it adds a ‘Tags’ column, displaying the tags for each plugin (if they have a readme.txt or package.json with tags/keywords). Clicking on a tag will filter the list to show only the plugins with that tag.
Installation
- Upload the
plugin-tag-filtersfolder to the/wp-content/plugins/directory - Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
- Navigate to the ‘Plugins > Add New’ or ‘Plugins > Installed Plugins’ screen to see the tag filtering functionality.
Frequently Asked Questions
For the ‘Add New’ screen, this plugin processes tag data that WordPress itself retrieves from the WordPress.org plugin API – the plugin does not make direct API calls but filters the results after WordPress fetches them. For the ‘Installed Plugins’ screen, the tags are retrieved from the readme.txt file (from the ‘Tags’ header) or the package.json file (from the ‘keywords’ field) of each plugin.
No, this plugin does not make any direct external network requests. For the ‘Add New’ screen, it processes data that WordPress itself retrieves from WordPress.org. For the ‘Installed Plugins’ screen, it only reads local files (readme.txt and package.json) from your installed plugins.
