Hi there. I just tried to submit my plugin on the submissions page but keep getting an error. Looking at my browser console, it looks like the Plasmic API is throwing a 500 error on the submission. Do you maybe have any tips on how to work around this problem?

Elena_Alcalde_Rueda · 2024-11-20T06:27:28.973Z

Hi @Christoph! Thanks for reaching out, and I’m sorry you’re running into this issue.

To avoid any delays, please send your plugin directly to community@penpot.app with all the required information from the form included. This way, we can review your submission without waiting for the issue to be resolved.

Thanks for taking part! (Your Day & Night plugin is )
Elena

Christoph · 2024-11-20T14:10:33.523Z

Thanks for the quick response. I tried again today (entered exactly the same information) and it worked. Must have just been a hick-up yesterday. Also, it is for the Day & Night plugin. So great to hear you like it. Plugins can be a really nice creative canvas.

Elena_Alcalde_Rueda · 2024-11-20T14:33:41.342Z

Hi! Thanks for giving it another try. Whenever we receive a bug report, the team looks into it right away. They started investigating after reading your message today.
Good luck with your plugin!

@Elena_Alcalde_Rueda How to update the content (images, description, …) of an already submitted plugin?

Elena_Alcalde_Rueda · 2024-12-03T12:56:35.908Z

Hey @girafic ! While we figure out a different way, send me whatever needs to be updated at: community@penpot.app.
Thanks!

Hi everyone

It´s great to see how plugins are evolving and the contest thriving. Thank you for taking time to develop them.

I have been taking a look to all of them and grouping them based on category.
Right now there here are around 50 plugins and browsing through the list is easy to handle, but it would be valuable to be able to browse the plugins using a grid layout, having a search option and filter by category.

Wow!!! Incredible job, @gabriel! Thanks a million! We’ll definitely make sure the plugins are filtered.

Elena_Alcalde_Rueda · 2024-12-11T10:27:05.603Z

Hey there! There are still 4 days left to participate. As @gabriel mentioned yesterday, over 50 plugins are ready to be assessed, and the jury is very excited about it.

But don’t worry, there’s still time to send yours and compete for one of the 21 potential prizes! Check out what’s already been submitted and get inspired to create your own.

For the contest, would it be possible to have the community’s vote partially count towards the contrst?

I myself was thinking of the following proposal. The 6 people mentioned above select the 21 plug ins that are in the prizes. The community can vote on these 21 plug ins to help determine the grand prize. (That way, what the community finds useful/important is also taken into account.) For example, the community’s vote counts for 1/3 of the votes, the other 2/3 by the people named above.

Elena_Alcalde_Rueda · 2024-12-13T11:21:38.569Z

Thanks! We actually considered community voting but need a bit more time to set it up. We’ll definitely keep it in mind for the next contest.

BDV · 2024-12-13T12:19:48.191Z

This can be done quite easily by a post on the forum e.g. in this topic. By listing all the 21 plugins with a description of what they do and link to the plugin on the Penpot site like e.g. Plugin Lucky tool. At the very bottom of the post you then put a Poll where everyone can select only 1 option to vote for.

Hello everyone,

I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to share that I have published my plugin, Real Data Filler, today. However, I haven’t received a confirmation email regarding its submission.

Could someone kindly confirm whether my submission has been successfully received? I’m more than happy to provide any additional information if needed to ensure my plugin’s eligibility for the contest.

Thank you so much in advance for your time and assistance. I look forward to hearing back from you!

Best regards
