## Moodle Marketplace

Moodle Marketplace is the official catalogue for Moodle plugins and integrations. Developers with a legitimate Moodle product can submit it for review; an approved product page can include relevant links to the project's website, documentation, source repository, or support resources.

The legitimate backlink path is an approved Moodle Marketplace product page for a real Moodle plugin or integration. The old Plugins Directory at `moodle.org/plugins` moved to Marketplace in 2026, so use the current Marketplace account and submission flow rather than legacy directory instructions.

### Steps

1. Read Moodle's current [quick guide to listing a plugin](https://moodle.atlassian.net/wiki/external/MzFlM2RkYjM3ZDVhNDgyMGJmYjA2ZjIyMzQ1NDRlYmY). Create a separate Moodle Marketplace account; a Moodle.org account cannot sign in directly, although Moodle recommends using the same email address so migrated data can be linked.
2. Prepare a genuine Moodle plugin or integration. You will need its plugin type, unique frankenstyle component name, repository, documentation, screenshots, and release package.
3. Decide whether the product is free or paid. Moodle treats a product as paid if any functionality or tier requires payment to the provider; paid products also require Marketplace payment setup and provider terms.
4. Open the [plugin submission page](https://marketplace.moodle.com/plugins/submit), enter the product details, upload the required package and assets, and submit it for review.
5. Add only useful external references to the listing, such as the canonical project site, documentation, source repository, issue tracker, or support page. Avoid repeating links or adding unrelated promotional URLs.
6. Address automated-check and manual-review feedback. The public product page appears only after the submission meets Marketplace requirements.
7. After publication, verify every external destination and keep the listing, releases, documentation, and support details current.

The public [Content Pages listing](https://marketplace.moodle.com/plugins/mod_icontent) demonstrates the result: its description includes direct links to the maintainer and source repositories. In the current raw HTML, those user-supplied external anchors carry `rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer"`.

This is a high-effort, reviewed citation rather than a quick profile backlink. A fresh product page benefits from Marketplace search, plugin-category browsing, and Moodle's plugin-discovery ecosystem, but its external links should be treated as nofollow. The opportunity makes sense only when publishing and maintaining the plugin already serves users; creating a thin plugin solely for a link is unlikely to pass review or remain useful.
