Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

Overview

About this plugin

Postmatic Social Commenting takes a lighter weight approach than traditional Social Login plugins.

The big difference

No WordPress users are created. Nobody is logged in. This is not social login, it is social commenting.

That means it is simple, lean, and whoopingly fast.

How it works

  • Users click the social network icon of their choice when they want to leave a comment.
  • The social network asks their permission to share their name, profile image, and email address with your site.
  • If they agree a standard WordPress cookie is added to their browser and the comment form is ready for their reply. When they return to your site they are already authorized. Nice.

“Tested up to” is directory metadata supplied by the plugin author. WP PlugIndex does not turn an older declaration into a claim that the plugin is incompatible.
