Plugin status

[dilip04]

Hello

I had uploaded a plugin earlier, and there were some issues reported from the WordPress end. I have fixed those issues and re-uploaded the plugin. However, I am unable to check its current status. Could you please let me know the latest status of the plugin?

Thanks.

Hello, you are on WordPress Core Trac, a place where we work on WordPress Core development.

## Summary

Introduces the reaction comment type to support emoji reactions on collaborative Notes, replacing the previous _wp_note_reactions meta approach from Gutenberg PR #75148 (now closed in favor of #75549).

Each reaction is stored as a separate comment with comment_type = 'reaction' rather than as serialized meta data on the note.

## Changes

• Avatar support: Add reaction to the allowed avatar comment types
• Admin exclusions: Exclude reactions from the admin comment list table and comment type filter
• Comment counts: Exclude reactions from approved and pending comment count queries
• REST API: Extend WP_REST_Comments_Controller to handle reaction type:
  • Permissions checks treat reactions like notes (edit_comment/edit_post instead of moderate_comments)
  • Validation: parent must be a note, content must be a valid emoji slug (heart, celebration, smile, eyes, rocket), one emoji per user per note
  • Auto-approve reactions (skip spam/flood checks)
  • Read permission and link embedding match note behavior
• Tests: PHPUnit tests for reaction creation, invalid parent, invalid emoji, duplicate detection, different reactions on same note, login requirement, and comment count exclusion
• Fixtures: Regenerated wp-api-generated.js

## Trac ticket

See https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/63191

## Test plan

• [ ] Create a note on a post via the REST API
• [ ] Add a heart reaction to the note — should succeed (201)
• [ ] Attempt a reaction on a regular comment — should fail (400)
• [ ] Attempt an invalid emoji slug — should fail (400)
• [ ] Attempt a duplicate reaction (same emoji, same user, same note) — should fail (409)
• [ ] Add a different emoji (rocket) to the same note — should succeed
• [ ] Verify reactions don't appear in wp-admin Comments list
• [ ] Verify reactions don't affect post comment counts
• [ ] Run phpunit --filter=test_create_reaction — all pass
• [ ] Run phpunit tests/phpunit/tests/comment/wpUpdateCommentCountNow.php — all pass

I have updated this backport PR to apply the custom comment type approach for storage used in ​https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/75549 which replaces the meta based approach in ​https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/75144.

Thanks for the review @t-hamano! I've pushed ​f3b5af251b addressing the feedback:

• @since bumps: Updated all PR-introduced @since 7.0.0 to @since 7.1.0 (in comment.php, link-template.php, and class-wp-rest-comments-controller.php).
• WP_Comment_Query: Updated ​the existing exclusion block to iterate over wp_get_internal_comment_types() so both note and reaction are excluded by default unless explicitly requested.
• get_lastcommentmodified(): Added a comment_type NOT IN (…) clause built from wp_get_internal_comment_types() to all three timezone branches so internal comment types no longer affect the last modified date.
• Reaction icon list: Moved wp_get_note_reaction_emojis() into WP_REST_Comments_Controller::get_note_reaction_emojis() as a protected static method, per your suggestion to avoid a public global while the icon-library plans are still being worked out.
• wp_internal_comment_types filter: Removed — agreed it's not needed for an internal helper.
• wp_list_pluck simplification at line 360: Applied. The 'note' === $comment->comment_type check inside the loop was redundant since $request['type'] is already gated to 'note' above and WP_Comment_Query constrains the result set, so it's gone too.

Locally, the relevant test suites (Tests_Comment_*, Tests_REST_Comments, Tests_Avatar) all pass: OK (165 tests, 476 assertions).
