Multiple search terms
It seems that multiple search terms are treated as OR, rather than AND:
$ wp plugin search "google fonts" Success: Showing 10 of 1010 plugins. +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------+--------+ | name | slug | rating | +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------+--------+ | Disable and Remove Google Fonts | disable-remove-google-fonts | 96 | | Fonts Plugin | Google Fonts Typography | olympus-google-fonts | 100 | | Local Google Fonts | local-google-fonts | 100 | | OMGF | GDPR/DSVGO Compliant, Faster Google Fonts. Easy. | host-webfonts-local | 94 | | Site Kit by Google – Analytics, Search Console, AdSense, Speed | google-site-kit | 82 | ← Why is this included? | WP Google Fonts | wp-google-fonts | 80 | | Toolkit for Block Theme (Gutenberg Blocks, Templates, Patterns, Google Fonts) – Twentig | twentig | 98 | | Easy Google Fonts | easy-google-fonts | 92 | | Swap Google Fonts Display | swap-google-font-display | 88 | | Embed Google Fonts | embed-google-fonts | 100 | +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+-----------------------------+--------+
This seems even clearer with more results - Like wp plugin search "google fonts" --per-page=100 in this example.
Same results as wordpress.org
It seems that the database behind this plugin, is the same as behind WordPress.org. Example:
Not the result you wanted?
Some reasons why the results might not be what I hoped for:
- Payed-for plugins are excluded
- Abandoned plugins, or plugins with compatibility issues, or otherwise non-approved plugins, are excluded. This is usually a sign to me, that I'm looking for the wrong solution.
