    • > /wp-content/plugins/advanced-category-template/advavanced-category-template.php
  • 1× PHP files trigger server-side errors or warnings when accessed directly:
    • > PHP Fatal error
      Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function get_taxonomies() in wp-content/plugins/advanced-category-template/_form.php:10

User-side errors Passed 1 test

🔹 Test weight: 20 | This is a smoke test targeting browser errors/issues
