Rename a plugin repository

[Joshua Abenazer]

Hi,

Not sure, if this is the right place. Please guide me, if I need to post
elsewhere.

My team and I had released a plugin called BuddyPress Media. We have now
rebuilt it and widened the scope to include WordPress and bbPress. We have
renamed it as *rtMedia*.

In another conversation on buddypress.org, @modemlooper had mentioned that
he had renamed his plugins on the suggestion of @johnjamesjacoby.

So, what I need to know is how could we go ahead and emulate @modemlooper
and rename our plugin on the plugin repository? I don't see a setting
anywhere.

Would really appreciate any help on this.

Regards.

Impossible the way you probably want it :/

The repo doesn't allow us to rename the SLUG, however you can change the
display name (controlled by your readme and plugin's php file) all you want.

The best that could happen is we close your plugin and you submit a new
one, but that means no one using BuddyPress Media gets updated to the
new versions. And no, we can't redirect your users.

If you REALLY want to do that, email plugins at wordpress.org
