answer originally assumed reader had read a higher ranked answer first; tweaked to make sense now it is ranked first.
Sep 25, 2018 at 2:19 comment added coolpasta I've discussed this at length in my post here on the meta, but it seems to me, the more I look at it is that this is an issue of moderation, not the questions themselves. Also, I think you're semi-wrong. We shouldn't allow support question. But we should allow dev-related questions from that plugin. E.g, someone asking why their header is not working or how to do certain things is clearly bad, but someone asking how to implement, say, a Woo sidebar filter for products using certain meta isn't - it's a developer, it's a valid WordPress + Woo question.
Jun 29, 2018 at 9:56 comment added forsvunnet I agree and think it's strange that questions regarding WordPress plugins would be allowed on stackoverflow, but not on wordpress.stackexchange. It seems counter-intuitive.

Mar 26, 2018 at 4:58 comment added Dave Romsey I'm with you on this, mostly. I see both sides of the issue, and at this point in the life of WordPress (slower releases, but Gutenberg is coming) and WPSE (engagement down), I think it would be beneficial to reconsider the scope that is covered here. It's often a headache getting support for commercial plugins & themes with restricted help resources. The paywall makes things uncool from a helper's perspective here on WPSE though. Personally, I'd like to explore adding everything available in the official theme and plugin repository to WPSE's scope as a balanced change.
