I have around 40 created plugins. Some of them stand still because of me (for whatever reason). Other plugins stand still because of Kirby. Or at least because of my idea of what Kirby should be. I might seem negative, but in fact 30/40 work just fine as it is. It’s just 10 plugins that suffer a bit. 🙂

For you who wait for updates on some of these plugins, I will tell you why they are on hold.

### Kirby SEO

It works fine with single language setups but not always well on multi language setups.

**Issue:** [https://github.com/getkirby/panel/issues/943](https://github.com/getkirby/panel/issues/943)

### Panel brand

> **[jenstornell/kirby-panel-brand](https://github.com/jenstornell/kirby-panel-brand)**
>
> kirby-panel-brand - Possible to add a color and a text at the top of the Kirby Panel

While this plugin works fine, I would like it to be possible to add a link there as well.

**Issue:** [Why would global panel js be more unsafe than a field js?](https://forum.getkirby.com/t/why-would-global-panel-js-be-more-unsafe-than-a-field-js/5557)

### Kirby Panel Prevnext

> **[jenstornell/kirby-panel-prevnext](https://github.com/jenstornell/kirby-panel-prevnext)**
>
> kirby-panel-prevnext - A Kirby CMS plugin for panel siblings navigation

I think it should be a core feature.

**Issue:** [https://github.com/getkirby/panel/issues/912](https://github.com/getkirby/panel/issues/912)

### Kirby Crop Top

> **[jenstornell/kirby-crop-top](https://github.com/jenstornell/kirby-crop-top)**
>
> kirby-crop-top - Crop thumbs with top position.

I think it should be a core feature.

**Issue:** [https://github.com/getkirby/toolkit/issues/99](https://github.com/getkirby/toolkit/issues/99)

### Kirby Snippetfield

> **[jenstornell/kirby-snippetfield](https://github.com/jenstornell/kirby-snippetfield)**
>
> kirby-snippetfield - Structure field with snippet instead of entry.

I think it should be a core feature.

**Issue:** [https://github.com/getkirby/panel/issues/747](https://github.com/getkirby/panel/issues/747)

### Kirby Revisions

> **[jenstornell/kirby-revisions](https://github.com/jenstornell/kirby-revisions)**
>
> kirby-revisions - Revisions for Kirby CMS

Pitfalls with using the content folder reported:

**Issue:** [https://github.com/jenstornell/kirby-revisions/issues/31](https://github.com/jenstornell/kirby-revisions/issues/31)

### Kirby hooks debugger

> **[jenstornell/kirby-hooks-debugger](https://github.com/jenstornell/kirby-hooks-debugger)**
>
> kirby-hooks-debugger - Debug Kirby Panel hooks

I think it should be a core feature.

**Issue:** [https://github.com/getkirby/panel/issues/904](https://github.com/getkirby/panel/issues/904)

### Previewer

> **[jenstornell/previewer](https://github.com/jenstornell/previewer)**
>
> Contribute to previewer development by creating an account on GitHub.

I think it should be a core feature.

### Kirby Slug Modifier

[https://github.com/jenstornell/kirby-slug-modifier](https://github.com/jenstornell/kirby-slug-modifier)

I think it’s really a bug that needs to be solved instead.

**Issue:** [https://github.com/getkirby/panel/issues/853](https://github.com/getkirby/panel/issues/853)

### Kirby Status

> **[jenstornell/kirby-status](https://github.com/jenstornell/kirby-status)**
>
> kirby-status - With this field, a page can be published, unpublished, private

I want to keep the plugin, but instead let it use the built in way to show/hide pages but so far I don’t think the built in show/hide feature is reliable enough (at least not in the Panel).

**Issue:** [https://github.com/getkirby/panel/issues/1007](https://github.com/getkirby/panel/issues/1007)

### In conclusion

These plugins will probably be on hold for a while, but if Kirby “unlock” features or there will be bugfixes they might be updated when that happends. 🙂
