Want this mark on your plugin in our catalog?

Prove you maintain it with a file in its repository, a file on your domain or a DNS record, and you can show this mark on the card, with live banners for your site and README. How verification works

You also get alerts when a marketplace lists it, drops it, changes its verified mark or what it asks for, and its remote endpoint goes on monitoring as a web service.

Data comes from public marketplace files in GitHub repositories of their authors. Figures come from our own regular passes over the marketplaces, last read on . We publish no contact details for plugin publishers.
