Plugins and supporters

I think that these “extra” highlighted users may be listed in the plugin’s readme.txt file as contributors to the plugin but I’ll ask a member of the plugin team to confirm this.

I don’t mean the green ‘Plugin Author’, I am pretty sure I could add them as contributors but since they’re not actual plugin devs i’d rather make that plan b

Example: On here, esmi is a ‘Theme Diva & Forum Moderator’, I’ve seen other plugin authors have custom strings as well. That’s what I mean.

Thanks for the blazing fast replies, appreciated!

Ah! Anyone with that kind of custom title is going to be a forum moderator or above.

That’s what I thought… but then how come these guys get custom names, are they moderators as well?

I only spotted 1 custom title in that topic and that is an unusual case. He’s not currently a mod but perhaps he was one a while ago?

Someone has a Font Hero title as a little joke and that person is still a member.

I looked around and here’s another example: https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/help-us-profile-users-of-the-events-calendar?replies=1

Not a big deal if this is a special case, there’s other ways I can go about this, but was curious as to how that happened.

Cheers!

I’ll ask around about these…

Thanks! As mentioned, no biggie, I can see how it could open a can of worms fore each exception made ?? but if possible I’d be interested….

Doh! I keep forgetting that WPORG profiles extend beyond the support forums. See https://make.www.ads-software.com/support/2012/11/is-your-forum-id-a-company-rep-account/

you’re a star, cheers esmi, much obliged!
