    Hi Jeff,

    Thank you for your excelling work with this plugin. I’ve been using it for about six months now and find it very useful. I appreciate the new features added with the latest version.

    I’m not sure how I feel about having a whole new screen for the ordering and grouping of plugins, though. It seemed much simpler when it was integrated into the regular plugins screen… But if it’s here to stay, then I’d like to request a bulk toggle button to simultaneously display or hide all plugin groups (placed next to the column title and not as part of the drop down select list). For plugins that don’t need a particular order, I use groups to help me organize them and prioritize the order, and it’s a whole lotta hassle to do that when I have to toggle each group button individually… ??

    Thanks for considering this suggestion! Cheers!

    I will look at adding a toggle all groups button for the next release. I had to move it off of the plugins page because it was very hard to do anything on that page. The wordpress core doesn’t have hooks to change the bulk actions menu or the controls for the plugins page. I was using jquery to add all of the options for PluginOrganizer and it was getting harder and harder to make it work. Now that it is on it’s own page I control everything so I can make an interface that works much better.

    Thanks, Jeff, both for considering my request and for explaining the new page. Makes total sense ??

    Here is a solution, exactly what I think you are look for?

    Thanks, Noahj, but Plugin Organizer already allows the creation of plugin groups, and it does display the groups on the regular plugins list screen. My issue is actually because I at times use groups to organize my plugin load order, so when I’m changing load order, I like to be able to see the groups easily. So the plugin you suggested wouldn’t actually help with that… Thanks, anyway, though!

    Julie, you’re welcome!

    Thank you for updating, appreciate it!
