Description

Hi,

I think it would be very useful to have an indication of the time since the last release of a plugin indicated for each plugin on the Plugins page. Simply indicating that a plugin needs updating is no indicator of how contemporary it is. As well as needing to know which plugins need updating, an admin also needs to know if he should be retiring out of date plugins in favour of others that are more contemporary.

Thanks,

Shaun.

  • Keywords dev-feedback added

This information is available on the /wp-admin/plugin-install.php, as well as compatibility with your version, etc.

This information is also available on /wp-admin/plugins.php by clicking "View Details".

I agree that it would be nice to have that information and save a click, but it's don't think its worth loading a class or making another api call just to load the info.
