Hey Codefling team,

First off, I appreciate the effort you put into improving the platform. One thing I'd really like to see is better script documentation for both new and experienced developers. Having more in-depth, clear documentation for the scripts/plugins would reduce a lot of the guesswork and make development faster. Maybe adding more code examples, common use cases, and even video tutorials could help a ton.

Keep up the great work, and thanks for being open to feedback!

The search feature. Please add Plugins and Maps to the dropdown box, or make the results order in relevance to name.

Just searched the word "Skin" and the top results were: Virtual Quarries, Raidable Bases, Stack Everything and THEN Building Skins (which should of been top along with XSkinMenu, Skinner Etc

I can't think of anything I'd ask to fix. Sorry but that's my honest reply. Cheers to a great Store.

Improve the search.

Plugins that you are looking for are actually only found in the suggestions. Filters don't work so well and when you search for a pkugin you end up with results from the entire page (including comments, etc.)

at least it was like that the last time I was looking for something ^^

Stop filtering reviews to the point that the user ends up writting what the moderator wants. (You may repeat over and over again that you dont do that but in the eyes of the costumer, thats exactly what you do) and if i choose not to enable push notifications once, i dont need to reject that option every time i enter the site. It would be great if the site remembers my choice. Thank you

Are you clearing cookies? Because it does in fact remember your choice

• Optional Markdown support for plugin descriptions.
• Codeblocks that have to be expanded like quotes
• Colored text in plugin descriptions

A self-service transferring of ownership of plugins, maps etc where the current owner, new owner, creator and admins are aware of the transaction. This appears to be a current problem/delay that I am facing.

Optimize the search feature for regular people instead of nerds. If someone types in the name of a plugin, the plugin should be the search first result. Regular people don't care about wrangling a search engine by sprinkling double quotes around it or whatever, they just don't.

#1. Highlight all message notifications related to plugin authors a different color than white so they can easily stand vs purchased plugin's updates or discussion updates.



Like the Purchased files, comments on plugins you made and support should all be like purple or red?

#2. When you type something in search a drop down appears that's very accurate but when you actually do a search it shows random things 100% unrelated. i always wonder why it did this? like type in the name horse and search you will not see my plugin. but you will in the drop-down.



P.S. I love the new Updated/Up to date in downloads

@Chill Roleplay To clarify, should notifications intended for creators be in a different color? For example, when someone purchases your file or does anything on your file that would trigger a notification,

I'd like to suggest organizing the free plugins, maps, tools, and prefabs into their own separate categories. This way, each type of resource will be easier to locate, making navigation more straightforward and ensuring users can quickly find what they need.

We do have this already, though it could be more visible.

I have been with codefling for a long time and I never seen it before maybe make it a little bit easier to see. Thanks for everything and keep up the good job.

I'll put that down as your feedback then. Make the options more visible

Allow viewing images attached to products in a grid view, so I don't have to click through all images to find the images i want to see. Yes yes

I appreciate you all having the purchased plugins listed in order of latest update with date, that was well needed. I do notice however when I checked at 11pm for updates one night, downloaded and updated my server, the update emails  did not come until much late the next day. I was thinking, these new update emails, since it was several hours later this is a new update, and they were the last ones I just checked at 11pm the prior day. I have also a few times received an email about a plugin being updated and log in and it is still dated months ago, no update, same file downloads. I don't know if that is on your end or the plugin creator.

 

Thanks!

I suggest the followings:

1. More markdown options (colored text, expandable file viewer, buttons[?])
2. Groups: where people can share their works for a bigger project, vote on works to be implemented, track their own progress and roadmap
3. Option to trade products: two members could trade their products from their uploads safely, scam-free
4. Place a note on your own profile page (like on your products) to notify visitors.

Agreed, censorship to that extent makes it pointless to submit a review, or take them seriously.

I'm not sure about this one. We do not send emails out in batches. What email provider do you use?

+1: A tutorial option for new members on how to use the site.

I'd love the ability to search for words in discussions. 

There's some plugins that have 20+ pages under the discussion tab, and I sometimes need to find either someone asking a question or giving an answer to the problem. Being able to search for a word would really help me not ask the community duplicate questions, and if the answer is already there I wouldn't need to ask the question.
