I was under the impression that this is not allowed according to WordPress guidelines, and you need to seperate paid/premium code from the …

When searching the plugin directory on wordpress.org how are the results ranked? It seems the main components are number of downloads and rating, or is there actually a full blown algorithm behind it taking many different statistics into account?

Finally, what are my options for SEO if I want my plugin to rank highly …

Please if someone could help …

It passes the php codesniffer using the WordPress standard. I have no other plugins installed on my testing site. With the old version of the plugin active, when updating the plugin through …

I released a new plugin to the .org repository about a month ago, and have committed several new versions since then, but the pie chart on the stats page has always stayed at 100% for an arbitrary version. For example, a week or so after 1.1 was released, it said that 100% of users had 1.0 installed, and recently it's been saying that 1.1.2 has 100%. I released 1.1.3 yesterday and it's gotten about 75 downloads so far, but the …

I experience a quite odd behavior of the WordPress Repository, or I am doing something wrong (more likely).

First I only uploaded the small logo and it didn't show up in the search results. I thought, I wait a bit, since the Repository needs sometimes a bit time to react. After this …

Am developing a plugin that I would like to submit to the WordPress.org repo. It's dependent on Apache License 2.0 code, so I know I should license my plugin with GPLv3 - it's allowed. So, how do I properly license my plugin? Obviously I should include License: GPLv3 in my plugin's header, but it feels like there's more I should do. What else should I do?
