Packagist: Readme is not shown to guests

Created on 9 Nov 2019  路  16Comments  路  Source: composer/packagist

Dear packagist developers

I believe your website has a bug:
when I login into your website,
and access my newly published repository:
https://packagist.org/packages/vasilevich/currencyconverter
the readme is visible just fine:

but when I go into icognito mode in my
browser same page I see this:

why the readme is not shown?
and if its a feature and not a bug, its very weird you should atleast warn the user that only as a registered user you can see it.

Thanks.

This seems even more complex than that. I cannot see that readme even when being logged. However, things are working fine for other packages

Resolved. This is due to anti-spam measures sometimes new packages get marked and the README is hidden until I go over the review queue..

@Seldaek I suggest you to put a certain message for the maintainer in the repo itself
for instance:
Readme is not shown to the public yet, awaiting review, estimated between x and y days.

I think this can prevent confusion.
Thank you for your response.

I agree with @vasilevich. This issue seems with my package(https://packagist.org/packages/ishan-biztech/cakephp-xero-oauth2) too.

Is there any timeline on when you can complete this review @Seldaek?

@ishan-biztech fixed your package.

Hi! Here the same problem @Seldaek :( https://packagist.org/packages/netflie/componentes

Took me a while to find this page finally to understand what was happening. It will be a big help if documentation is available for the spam detection and review process. @Seldaek

Published a new package and it's still pending review https://packagist.org/packages/smsglobal/smsglobal-php

I vote for the idea to display a message to maintainer on the repo.

Hi! I have the same issue here with a library lazzard/php-ftp-client, I suggest to leave some message for the maintainer and for the visitors also, thanks!! @Seldaek

Hi @Seldaek! I have the same issue with 2 of my packages: jacobdekeizer/redjepakketje-client and jacobdekeizer/ccvshop-client.

@jacobdekeizer fixed

I'll try to resolve it better at some point, but in the meantime please email [email protected] about this in the future, to avoid spamming everyone in this issue.

Hi! Here the same problem: https://packagist.org/packages/jjanampa/laravel-admin , thanks!! @Seldaek
