Ratings & Reviews

Share your experience with a plugin by leaving a rating and a short review. Ratings help other Tablen users decide which plugins to install, and give plugin authors direct feedback.

Leaving a review

You can rate any plugin from 1 to 5 stars. Along with the rating you can add an optional title and an optional body to explain what you liked or what could be better.

To post a review you send it to POST /api/plugins/{slug}/reviews with these fields:

Field Description
rating Your score, from 1 to 5 stars.
title Optional short headline for your review.
body Optional detailed text.

Posting a review requires a license for the plugin.

One review per plugin

Each user has a single review per plugin. If you submit again for the same plugin, your existing review is updated instead of creating a duplicate. This means you can revisit and change your rating or wording at any time, and only your latest version is shown.

Whenever a review is created, updated, or removed, the plugin's average rating and review count are recalculated automatically, so the numbers you see are always current.

Reading reviews

Anyone can browse a plugin's reviews. The list is available at GET /api/plugins/{slug}/reviews and is paginated so you can page through longer histories.

  • Reviews display the reviewer's name.
  • They are ordered newest first, so the latest feedback appears at the top.

Deleting your review

If you change your mind, you can remove your own review with DELETE /api/plugins/{slug}/reviews. This also requires a license, and it only deletes the review that belongs to you. After deletion, the plugin's average rating and review count update automatically.

Access rules

You can only review a plugin you are able to access. If you try to review — or list the reviews of — a plugin that is private or not yet approved and that you cannot access, the request returns not found (404). This keeps hidden plugins from being exposed through their reviews.
