Server-side errors Passed 1 test

🔹 Test weight: 20 | A shallow check that no server-side errors were triggered
Everything seems fine, however this is by no means an exhaustive test

SRP 50% from 2 tests

🔹 Tests weight: 20 | The single-responsibility principle: PHP files have to remain inert when accessed directly, throwing no errors and performing no actions

    • > /wp-content/plugins/age-gate-plus/views/feedback_modal.php

User-side errors Passed 1 test

🔹 Test weight: 20 | This is a shallow check for browser errors
