Adding a version of plugin to Core?

I’ve never worked with core development, but I could look into it. I would probably want to add in some extra stuff before I do something like that, though.

Thanks for the suggestion!

You’ll learn along the way.

The important part is being willing to work on a feature that would benefit a lot of people. Having a simple way to duplicate a post/page/custom post by using the quick edit bar would be really nice.

The process as I have noticed it is kinda like so:
A developer suggests a plugin or project they are working on as a feature plugin for core.
A chat is held in regards to possible feature plugins. There is a chat Tuesday next week. https://make.www.ads-software.com/core/ (check the right sidebar info for chat info)
A developer follows along receives feedback, answers possible questions etc.
Makes some changes to the plugin to create a better fit for Core.
And the plugin matures along the way…

Your plugin is small and does not require so much making it an easier project to bring into core. But it is up to the core developers to say yes or no to each project and if they say yes they can also give requirements (depends on complexity of project) and a timeframe. If they say no that it does not fit into Core then the project will likely turn into a plugin that people can install on their own. (Your plugin is small and does not create a large footprint). It is interesting taking part in the process finding out various features that might make it into core.

Thank you for the info! It would be very interesting to take part in the core development. I’ll have to see if I can fit that into my schedule, though… I’m a bit overloaded with jobs and don’t know if I can set aside the time this upcoming week.

You could suggest your plugin in the thread as a beginning.
It should be an interesting experience if your able to drop by the feature plugin chat on Tuesday. Just take it one step at a time when your able to.

Ok, I’ll try to drop in. Thanks again for the advice!
