Contributor Team Matcher presents contributors with a short quiz and uses a tag-based scoring algorithm to recommend the Make WordPress contribution team that best fits their profile. The top match is displayed as a prominent card; four runner-up teams are shown below it.
The plugin is fully configurable from the WordPress admin — questions, answers, teams, and tag weights can all be edited, added, or removed without touching code.
How the matching algorithm works
- The contributor answers all quiz questions.
- Each selected answer contributes a list of tags to a shared pool.
- Tags are tallied (duplicates increase the count).
- Every team is scored:
score += tag_weight x tag_countfor each matching tag. - Teams are sorted by score. The highest scorer is the primary recommendation; the next four are shown as secondary suggestions.
Default teams
The plugin ships with 19 Make WordPress contribution teams: Core, Design, Accessibility, Polyglots, Support, Documentation, Themes, Community, Training, Test, TV, CLI, Hosting, Openverse, Photos, Core Performance, Playground, Core AI, and Core Program.

FAQ
-
How do I display the quiz?
-
Add the shortcode
[conttema_quiz]to any page, post, or widget, or insert the Contributor Team Matcher block in the Block Editor. The block is server-side rendered and shows a styled placeholder in the editor. -
Can I change the questions and teams?
-
Yes. Everything is editable from the Contributor Team Matcher admin menu, which has three tabs: Questions, Teams, and Usage. No code changes are required. You can also reset questions and teams back to their defaults.
-
Are single- and multi-select questions supported?
-
Yes. Each question can be set independently to a single answer (radio) or multiple answers (checkbox, up to 3 selections).
-
Why are the Plugins, Meta, and Tide teams not included?
-
They are left out on purpose, the same way the contributor orientation tool on make.wordpress.org/contribute leaves them out: those teams do not yet have a new-contributor onboarding process. You can still add them yourself under the Teams tab.
-
Does the plugin require jQuery?
-
No. The frontend is written in vanilla JavaScript with no jQuery dependency.

1.0.12
- Removed default tag weights that no quiz answer produces (build, beauty, reach, learn, ecosystem, and quality). They never added to any score, so quiz results do not change.
1.0.11
- Removed the Plugins and Meta teams from the default contribution teams, matching make.wordpress.org/contribute, because those teams do not yet have a new-contributor onboarding process. Teams you saved yourself under the Teams tab are not changed; use Reset to defaults to pick up the new list.
- Corrected the list of default teams in this readme.
1.0.10
- Fix: Registered backward-compatibility shortcode aliases ([contributor_team_matcher] and [find_your_team]) so existing page content created with earlier versions of the plugin continues to render correctly after the shortcode was renamed to [conttema_quiz] in 1.0.7.
1.0.9
- Removed the Mobile team from the default contribution teams.
1.0.8
- Fix: Corrected the text domain passed to
__()in the Block Editor script (blocks/contributor-team-matcher-quiz/index.js) fromcontributor-team-matchertofind-your-team, so the blockÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’s editor strings match the domain declared inblock.jsonand load translations correctly.
1.0.7
- Standardised the plugin text domain to
find-your-teamto match the WordPress.org slug. - Renamed internal identifiers from the
CTM_/ctm_prefix toCONTTEMA_/conttema_— constants, class names, include filenames, nonces, and AJAX actions on the PHP side, and the localized data object (ctmDatatoconttemaData) on the JavaScript side. - No functional or behavioural changes; this is a naming/consistency release.
1.0.6
- Fix: The admin tab links (Questions / Teams / Usage) now point at the top-level
admin.php?page=contributor-team-matcherpanel instead ofoptions-general.php, so navigating between tabs no longer bounces to the Settings screen. - Docs: README updated to reference the top-level menu rather than “Settings Contributor Team Matcher”.
1.0.5
- Feature: Gutenberg block
contributor-team-matcher/quizregistered viablock.json. Editors can insert the quiz from the block inserter without typing the shortcode. The block is server-side rendered and shows a styled placeholder in the editor. - Bump: Version synced across plugin header, version constant, and readme.
1.0.4
- Fix: Moved hidden quiz inputs inside their
<label>elements so custom radio/checkbox indicators render correctly in all browsers. - Fix: Extended CSS to hide native
input[type="radio"]elements and style them with the custom dot indicator (circular for radio, square for checkbox). - Fix: Switched CSS selectors to
:has()now that inputs are descendants of labels rather than preceding siblings. - Code quality: Full pass against WordPress Coding Standards (WordPress-Extra + WordPressVIPMinimum) — 0 errors, 0 warnings.
- Bump: Plugin header version synced with the version constant.
1.0.3
- Feature: Per-question Answer Type setting in the admin. Each question can be independently set to Single answer (radio) or Multiple answers (checkbox, up to 3).
- Admin UI: Answer Type toggle added to each question accordion item, with a “Single” / “Multi” badge in the accordion header.
- Frontend: Question rendering now branches on question type — radio questions render circular indicators with
role="radiogroup"; checkbox questions keep the existing multi-select logic.
1.0.2
- Feature: Changed quiz from single-select radio buttons to multi-select checkboxes allowing up to 3 selections per question.
- All five default questions updated to support multiple selections.
1.0.1
- Fix: Escaped team icons before
innerHTMLinsertion to prevent potential stored XSS. - Fix: Synced the version constant with the plugin header version string.
1.0.0
- Initial release.
- Five-question quiz covering activity preference, skills, experience, passion, and working style.
- Tag-based scoring algorithm ranking 23 default Make WordPress contribution teams.
- Top match displayed as primary card; four runner-up teams shown in a grid.
- Full admin settings page (top-level “Contributor Team Matcher” menu) with Questions and Teams tabs.
- Accordion UI with add / edit / remove support for questions, answers, teams, and tag weights.
- Reset to defaults for both questions and teams.
- Usage tab with shortcode reference and copy button.

role="radiogroup"/role="group"on answer lists.
