It seems the orginal author abandoned the plugin. Could you please adopt the plugin and clean up the page?

samwilson commented 11 years ago

I'm not sure he has, after all. He updated the plugin just recently.

Now I'm not sure what to do. I'll carry on with my fork, though, mainly because it's now going to have non-JS sorting (#1), which my company wants.

Have you tried to contact him? Maybe you could work on this together in a shared repository?

My idea would be to rename this "fork" (it's no longer a real fork, since the code differences are simply too big) to e.g. TablesorterDW or something similar, and publish it as completely independent dokuwiki plugin. Both codebases are incompatible and it's just much better to have two distinct plugins (sortable-based/client-side vs Tablesorter-based/server-side), than try to force-fit them into one.

The exact procedure is described on https://www.dokuwiki.org/devel:plugins - AFAIK, it would require @samwilson to change all relevant fields in https://github.com/samwilson/dokuwiki_sortablejs/blob/master/plugin.info.txt so that there are no name conflicts, and then just create a plugin page on dokuwiki.

If @samwilson is not around or doesn't want to do this, I guess anyone (even @splitbrain or me) can fork, edit and publish it instead.

Good job on this one @samwilson BTW, I really like the ideas you implemented.
