Both work. Sometimes we only have one or the other, so it's tolerant in what it can search for. It tries to always show the name if available though. > I also noticed a bunch of wiki HTML problems, some of which were already > mentioned.

That's an interesting observation. Anyone else has comments on this? This was a contested issue between Gus and me as well, so feedback on this would be appreciated. > I’m not sure why there’s a prominent "Download" button, given than nobody > should ever be downloading plugins from this site.

Manually downloading is miserable due to dependencies etc., so maybe a popup explaining how to install in Jenkins (and bury a download link somewhere if the user insists -- e.g. for offline instances) would be useful. I wonder whether we can do something like let users specify their Jenkins URL on the plugin site in HTML 5 local storage, and add a "install this" (like "tweet this") URL to Jenkins that the site redirects to. That way, they can discover plugins and almost seamlessly install them. > What does the "Recently installed" list on the home page mean? It's what I was referring to as "trending" plugins in my initial post: The math is still work in progress, but the idea is to show these three lists: 1. The most popular plugins (most installations total) -- right now it's mostly what was bundled before, but that should flatten out after a while. It'll still be driven by recommended plugins in the wizard, but not as much as bundling did before. 2. Recent releases. Because new things (both plugins and updates) are interesting. 3. Trending plugins (which are rapidly growing their relative installation counts) -- we need to be careful not to place the plugin that grew 10x from 10 installs to 100 installs first, but going rapidly from 2000 to 2500 (+25%) from one month to the next is impressive and makes the plugin very interesting. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Jenkins Developers" group.
