Description
As discussed in today's meeting, let's confirm the sites on which the editoria11y plugin is installed and active by default. We agreed that this should be the case for any site with the Teaching purpose, and/or any site that has the Teaching plugin package.
There have been reports however of the plugin showing up as active on sites that aren't under the Teaching purpose, so it would be good to know where it is active right now and the triggers for its activation on future sites.
Files
- Status changed from New to Reporter Feedback
- Target version set to Not tracked
The plugin is not network-activated.
The plugin is active on just over 2000 sites at the moment:
mysql> select count(*) from wp_network_plugins where plugin like 'editoria1%';
+----------+
| count(*) |
+----------+
| 2096 |

1 row in set (0.10 sec)
The plugin is part of both the 'Teaching' and 'Digital Tools' plugin packages.
Let me know if you need other info.

For historical context, we added Editoria11y back in #18921.
Hi Ray, thanks for this info. Zach, can you let us know if that non-Teaching site you shared in the meeting on Friday with this plugin active might have been set up with the Digital Tools plugin package?
Hi Colin, I made the site with the default template about a week ago but did not activate any plugins or plugin packages, or at least not to the best of my knowledge. I only noticed it because of how Editoria11y is listed at the bottom of my dashboard menu. For more context, I attached two screenshots with this message: one for active plugins and another for plugin packages.
Hm okay - I can go deactivate on Academic portfolio and conference templates so it is not active on those templates and on new sites that choose those templates.
I'll leave activated on the teaching site as part of teaching package.
I am not sure how to deactivate for default template but I think maybe we should deactivate for new default sites.
Great-- thanks!
Deactivated on Academic,conference, and default template.
