This is the repository archive. It installs, but the folder name will carry the branch suffix and updates will not flow.

Install straight from GitHub with WP-CLI:

wp plugin install https://github.com/srikat/disable-dynamic-plugin-install-search/archive/refs/heads/master.zip
No built-in updater. New versions won't appear under Dashboard → Updates. Install new releases yourself, or let Git Updater track the repository.

Disable dynamic search on Plugins > Add New in WordPress admin.

Description

This plugin disables search as you type when searching for a plugin on Plugins > Add New screen. This means you can now press down arrow on your keyboard and select your previously typed plugin search term without getting frustrated with built-in Ajax behavior. Hitting return will search the WordPress plugin repository and display the results.

Installation

  1. Click on the Download ZIP button at the right to download the plugin
  2. Upload the entire disable-plugin-install-live folder to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
  3. Activate the plugin through the Plugins menu in WordPress

Credits

Thanks to David Baker (@dtbaker in WPAustralia Slack) for the Javascript code.
