The document summarizes a proposed platform called HealthyWP that would catalogue data on issues with WordPress plugins, including conflicts between plugins or with WordPress versions. It would be regularly updated as new plugins and versions are released and information would be evaluated by the community. The goal is to help WordPress and its plugins improve by structuring information about problems. The platform would be useful for developers, users, testers, translators and enthusiasts working with WordPress plugins.

2. Problem.

3. Some WordPress (WP) plug-ins sometimes:
1. Conflict with each other.
2. Conflict with certain versions of WP itself.
3. Conflict with certain themes.
4. Aren’t optimized (memory wise, security wise, etc.).
The above “issues” are usually discussed to:
# Forums.
# Social Media.
# IRC and or chat-oids (i.e. Slack).

4. Opportunity.

5. # WordPress serves 30% of the web.
# More than 50.000 WordPress plug-ins are available in WordPress.org.

6. Solution (?)

7. A “platform” that:
1. Will structurally catalogue data related to the aforementioned issues.
2. Will be regularly updated as new versions of WP / WP plug-ins emerge.
3. The information will be evaluated by the community.
4. Will help WP / WP plug-ins become better.

8. Who?
