So asking about the Wordpress's plugins has been rejected by the Wordpress Development. Do we count the plugins as softwares also? I see that asking for plugins for Minecraft is acceptable, so I don't think plugins for Wordpress should be an exception. Any idea?

For reference, currently we have 50 questions tagged with wordpress, many of which ask for plugins. – unor Oct 10 '15 at 21:10
I don't see why Wordpress plugins should be an exception here. For reference:
- Would plugin recommendations about Minecraft be on topic? → OK
- How should we treat questions about plugins and such “software-parts”? → OK
- Are questions about browser plugins acceptable? → OK
Cetero censeo: OK – or in other words: Such requests are fully acceptable, as long as they stick to our other rules (especially our quality guidelines :)

3Very well. I have asked this in the meta of Wordpress SE: For who's looking for plugin recommendation, should we suggest them to ask in Software Recomendation? – Ooker Oct 10 '15 at 19:25

For some food: you might wish to take a look at my collection of canned responses for Android.SE (an export to be used with SE-AutoReviewComments), and especially see the first entry ("App recommendation"). That's an example of how you could deal with it, as long as there's no "official migration path". – Izzy♦ Oct 10 '15 at 19:38
