Please fix the buggy extensions catalog

Even after so much time the extensions catalog is still highly buggy.

BUG 1: No. of user reviews is detected wrongly.



Notice the numbers-

Traein - (1) user rating
Better Facebook - (3) user ratings
Opairs - (1) user rating

However,



and this too:



All extensions in the Extensions catalog are affected by this bug.

BUG 2: All user ratings display the latest version of an extension. So even if you rate a extension 7 months ago and the extenson has been updated, it will show the latest version of the extension next to your review and rating.

Please fix these bugs.

Rating without reviews is not shown. Maybe it's not bug.

The bug 1 is not a bug because if you don't write a comment, you can review the extension by selecting stars.

The bug 2 is also not actual bug. Updated extensions, updated information is better than outdated information.

Yes, usopion explained me that. That's why removed the images because I can't edit the post.

It is. Suppose I gave the rating 3/5 to an extension writing in my review that so and so features are missing. Two weeks after that the developer adds those missing features and publishes it as version 2.0 of the extension. Now when I did the review it was version 1.0, but still Opera extensions catalog will display version 2.0 next to my review. This is misleading to another user who finds the extension, he/she might think that the extension still lacks some important features.

You are absolutely right for the second thing. I miss the key point of the bug. up

Extensions can get an initial rating during the review process.

If you look at the language variants of my YouTube extension you’ll see that all variants share the same score, even though they don’t share the review text (as they would vary by language). The same model is used in Apple’s regional App Stores.

I hope this helps explain what you are seeing.

Thanks for your reply. But what I said BUG 1 was proved to be false (thanks to usopion and greench). The only issue is BUG 2 now.
