Since 2012, when it was first built, it has also been distributed as a standalone plugin in the WordPress.orgWordPress.org The community site where WordPress code is created and shared by the users. This is where you can download the source code for WordPress core, plugins and themes as well as the central location for community conversations and organization. https://wordpress.org/ plugin directory.

WordCamp.org has always run the same CampTix code as that found in the plugin directory. A few months ago, however, it was necessary to add some functionality from other parts of the WordCamp codebase into CampTix. Copying that functionality into the standalone plugin would have created confusing duplication on WordCamp sites, and added a lot of complexity to the update. Instead, CampTix was integrated into the WordCamp.org codebase itself, which  essentially created a fork. Since then, the WordCamp version of CampTix has changed in ways that have not been ported back to the standalone version.

As of now, the standalone version of CampTix will no longer be distributed via the plugin directory, and its original GitHubGitHub GitHub is a website that offers online implementation of git repositories that can easily be shared, copied and modified by other developers.
