More Information on the Module Download Page

Danic_ - December 24, 2007 - 13:28

Hello everbody,

I would appreciate mor information on the module download page.

Currently we can see version numbers and date of uploading. I would recommend the following information:

  • Last Update
  • Downloads
  • Rating
  • Development Status

... with following reason. I don't like to install plugins wich are "dead" or "unfinished". I rather like to install plugins which are used a lot. This way I can estimate the quality of the plugins. And I can be quite sure, that these plugins are in developing status.

Would this be possible?

How do you think about this?

Daniel

This is in progress...
