I’m trying to find some specific plugin for Accordion (FAQ), but to be in a form of Gutenberg Block. There is a group of “block enabled” plugins on https://wordpress.org/plugins/browse/blocks/

There should be a simple way of achieving this task. I’ve done a lot of experimenting, but none of the results were satisfactory enough.

Using specialized sites

• https://wpdirectory.net/;

  Tried searching for (?mi)(^s*Plugins+Name:.+accordion.+$) to achieve case-insensitive search for accordion in plugin name. But I can’t search also for “blocks” plugins as there is impossible to achieve AND functionality 🙁

• https://wpcore.com/plugin-directory; I tried to use their search-form, but the results are not better than on wordpress.org

• lots of unmaintained or defunct sites:

  • https://addendio.com/,
  • http://searchwpplugins.com/,
  • http://www.wpmeta.org/,
  • http://wpplugindirectory.org/

Using Google

I’ve had some results using Google queries like this one:

inurl:wordpress.org/plugins/browse/blocks/ accordion

… but that gave me only “list” and not “plugin” pages. Not satisfactory at all!

I still believe that it is somehow possible to get better results from Google

Experiment with WordPress.org public API

I’ve found “some solution” via WordPress.org API. Read my own answer…
