Description
Carrying on some work begun in #16994, I'd like to have a look at plugins that have not been updated in a long time. Where possible, the plugin should be removed. If that can't be done, it should be hidden. Here's a list of those where the last update in the Git repository was prior to 2015-01-01. This is a good place to start.

add-rss has two features:
1. It adds sitewide comment feeds and per-post comment feeds to the head of the document
2. It adds additional RSS feeds to the head of the document, as provided by the admin
Item 1 is done natively by WP. Maybe it wasn't when this plugin was added? Item 2 is strange (why would I want a feed-reader to think that a third-party feed belonged to my site?). Also, built a small tool to check across the Commons, and not a single site uses this second feature. Since the plugin also has some (fairly minor) security problems, I'm going to go ahead and remove it.

The bp-community-blogs directory contained only a readme.txt file. 235 sites on the Commons have the plugin activated, though they are all very old - they have IDs of 325 or less. So I'm guess that the full plugin was available at some point before we introduced version control in 2010, but was removed before the Git repo was established. I'm going to skip the step of deactivating the plugin for those sites, but I'll remove the empty directory for the sake of cleanup: https://github.com/cuny-academic-commons/cac/commit/a0e2c0f9aeee6820533d525d254f846af9299aa0

contact-form-7-widget does appear to be actively used on at least some sites. I'm unsure whether contact-form-7 has its own widgets/blocks. In theory it would be nice to switch these legacy users over, but this is a hard project and can't happen now. So I'll leave the plugin. But I will first fix some of the more egregious escaping issues https://github.com/cuny-academic-commons/cac/commit/625f26790046bf3d4d6a47c35cd6d979b90783d4 and I will hide the plugin from future use https://github.com/cuny-academic-commons/cac/commit/2d7178d9dfee3c132496347f75d195b0acbc9242Updated by Boone Gorges 2 months ago

extra-feed-links adds feed links to the document head, links that are context-specific (category, tag, search). These links are provided out-of-the-box by WordPress, so the plugin is not needed.

private-wordpress works a bit like more-privacy-options. 20 sites have it active, but none of them actually toggled the feature on. So I can safely remove the plugin without performing any migration routine.

add-link creates a widget that allows visitors to add items to a blogroll. It's a good idea and conjures up the good vibes of the Blog Era. But it's also a vector for spam. I would like to remove the plugin altogether, but this is difficult. It's activated on over 100 sites, but the widget is only active on 7:
Widget found on 854 https://gslis720.commons.gc.cuny.edu Widget found on 932 https://gslis790.commons.gc.cuny.edu Widget found on 3004 https://medieval.commons.gc.cuny.edu Widget found on 3237 https://lbsci720.commons.gc.cuny.edu Widget found on 7717 https://testingportal.commons.gc.cuny.edu Widget found on 21497 https://lbsci720sm.commons.gc.cuny.edu Widget found on 22664 https://lbsci748.commons.gc.cuny.edu
The most recent of these is from 2022. That course is over, but it's still pretty recent for me to be modifying anything on the site.
So I'm just going to hide the site from being activated in the future: https://github.com/cuny-academic-commons/cac/commit/16f9a02f7a174240f713fffc8e3146c640b7020c Maybe down the road we can circle back and remove the plugin.

Of the sites using simpler-ipaper, only 4 URLs have the [ipaper] shortcode:
https://chaserobinson.commons.gc.cuny.edu/c-v-2/
https://chaserobinson.commons.gc.cuny.edu/c-v/
https://sandboxdescott.commons.gc.cuny.edu/documents/

This site is marked as administrators-only, and has not been updated since 2017. So I think it's been abandoned.
Furthermore, the Flickr widget appears to work, but it holds up the pageload for about 30 seconds. I haven't looked into whether this is due to the slowness of Flickr or something inefficient that the plugin does. But either way, it's not good.

frontpage-category-filter is a decent idea for a plugin, but it's written in a pretty bad way. When you first activate it, it saves a whitelist built out of all your categories. If you add categories in the future, they are not automatically added to the list. As such, there's no obvious way to filter out which sites are intentionally using it, and which are just out of sync because more categories have been created since activation. (I found at least one site that is using it intentionally.) This kind of behavior is likely to be confusing to users, who might not understand why new posts stop appearing on the front page.

my-link-order is active on a number of sites, but it's only been used actively on 3. ("active" use here is: the core tables have been modified and non-zero entries have been created in the link_order column)

I looked at these and didn't find any user-facing use of my-link-order. lbsci700 has a link sidebar widget, but it uses the core 'sort by' feature rather than relying on the link_order column.
The plugin is problematic not only because it's old and unmaintained, but because it depends on the long-deprecated Links feature, and because it modifies core tables. Let's do away with it.

page-excerpt is a very simple plugin that enables excerpts for pages. It adds a metabox, which is specific to the Classic Editor, but should be loaded by the Block Editor's backward compatibility layer. The one shortcoming of the plugin is that page excerpts aren't displayed anywhere in a typical theme, since most themes don't have a page archive. That said, I see at least one site that uses the tool to good effect: https://cetls.bmcc.cuny.edu/initiatives/figs/ I think the plugin can be left available.Updated by Boone Gorges about 2 months ago

dynamic-content-gallery-plugin is a pretty confusing plugin - I'm not 100% sure what it was intended to do. It's active on 59 sites but only 3 sites have attempted to use the widget. All of those sites have either become defunct, or have adopted themes that no longer show a sidebar. Let's remove the plugin.

chartboot-for-wordpress is active on a few dozen sites, but only one site has posts that actually contain the shortcode. See https://newtestsite.commons.gc.cuny.edu/chart.
Scott, I've added you as a watcher here to see if it's OK with you if I remove the plugin. It still technically works, but it's old, unmaintained, and fails to confirm with a bunch of security best practices. So I'd prefer to remove it. But I see that you've done some work documenting the plugin in the past https://help.commons.gc.cuny.edu/chartboot-for-wordpress/, so I want to be sure I check with you before doing anything.

wordpress-custom-sidebar is really problematic. It does a bunch of pretty bad things, including creating new 'sidebar' posts for every new post on the site. The only site where it seems to be actually used is https://acert.hunter.cuny.edu. I'm basing this on the fact that the ACERT site has an active custom_sidebar_widget widget. There's a ton of stuff happening on the ACERT site and it's hard for me to tell whether wordpress-custom-sidebar is being used in a way that's visible to end users. I don't want to spend any more effort figuring it out, so my plan is to disable the plugin everywhere except for the ACERT site (and its dev sites), and then to hide it from being activated. In the future, we can return to the plugin and consider removing it.

really-simple-breadcrumb was deprecated in #19358. The plugin doesn't do anything on its own - it just provides a template tag that must be used in a theme. The plugin is active only on chineseindians.commons.gc.cuny.edu, which no longer resolves. The only theme that calls the function is chineseindian.org, and it calls it conditionally with a function_exists() check. Safe to remove.

fourteen-extended is used to customize the behavior of the twentyfourteen theme. The plugin was active on a number of sites not running twentyfourteen. I've deactivated it on those sites:
wp --url=cerg.commons.gc.cuny.edu/ plugin deactivate fourteen-extended && wp --url=compcomm.commons.gc.cuny.edu/ plugin deactivate fourteen-extended && wp --url=lbsci720.commons.gc.cuny.edu/ plugin deactivate fourteen-extended && wp --url=bmccetlsdev.commons.gc.cuny.edu/ plugin deactivate fourteen-extended && wp --url=wgsresearch.commons.gc.cuny.edu/ plugin deactivate fourteen-extended && wp --url=lbsci720sm.commons.gc.cuny.edu/ plugin deactivate fourteen-extended && wp --url=lbsci748.commons.gc.cuny.edu/ plugin deactivate fourteen-extended && wp --url=portfoliojk.commons.gc.cuny.edu/ plugin deactivate fourteen-extended && wp --url=202402adolpsy.commons.gc.cuny.edu plugin deactivate fourteen-extended
Most of the plugin's functionality is related to filtering of output, so there's not an automated way for me to tell who's "actively" using it - likely, anywhere where it's active, it's actually affecting the way the site behaves. So I'm wary of removing it. But I'll go ahead and hide it, as it's old and unmaintained.

I spent some time trying to figure out whether acf-gallery is being actively used anywhere. It appears that there are ACF fields with type 'gallery' on only four sites - all of them related to the old Segal Center sites on the Commons - and none of these fields is in a field group that's being actively used. However, my knowledge of ACF database structure is pretty much exhausted, so I don't feel comfortable enough to remove the plugin altogether. I'm going to hide this plugin as well as acf-options-page and acf-repeater, introduced at the same time and similarly disused. https://github.com/cuny-academic-commons/cac/commit/90e635d7a363b9f011d7a062012ce59724c12862, https://github.com/cuny-academic-commons/cac/commit/e8ab77f25cdb83e467c400c504be55b2e0889392

cac-commons-information is a home-grown plugin that we are leaving in place for now.
cac-bbpress-attachments-bridge contains a legacy URL redirector. I highly doubt it's in use anymore. But the plugin is already hidden, and there's no harm in leaving it in place, so I'm not touching it.Updated by Boone Gorges about 2 months ago

wp-latex is widely used, including on the main site (it powers LaTeX display in our forums), and appears to be working fine. Automattic pushes people to use Jetpack instead, but this plugin seems OK to me, so I'm leaving it.Updated by Boone Gorges about 2 months ago

wp-live-preview-links was already disabled in #17192. It's a good idea to leave it disabled, as, among other things, it turns the Commons into a kind of bot for linked-to websites. But it's in use on a couple of sites, which would see a visible UI change if the plugin were removed. So let's leave it.Updated by Boone Gorges about 2 months ago
