Server-side errors Passed 1 test

🔹 Test weight: 20 | This is a short smoke test looking for server-side errors
Everything seems fine, however this is by no means an exhaustive test

SRP 0% from 2 tests

🔹 Tests weight: 20 | The single-responsibility principle applies for WordPress plugins as well - please make sure your PHP files perform no actions when accessed directly
Please fix the following
  • 4× PHP files perform the task of outputting text when accessed with GET requests:
    • > /wp-content/plugins/bd-buttons/includes/index.php
    • > /wp-content/plugins/bd-buttons/bdButtons/index.php
    • > /wp-content/plugins/bd-buttons/images/index.php
    • > /wp-content/plugins/bd-buttons/bdButtons.php
  • 2× GET requests to PHP files trigger server-side errors or Error 500 responses:
    • > PHP Fatal error
      Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function add_action() in wp-content/plugins/bd-buttons/functions-bd.php:49
    • > PHP Fatal error
      Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function plugin_dir_url() in wp-content/plugins/bd-buttons/includes/BDPluginsNews.php:33

Optimizations

readme.txt Passed 16 tests

The readme.txt file is undoubtedly the most important file in your plugin, preparing it for public listing on WordPress.org
4 plugin tags: link buttons, links, button link, stylize links

bd-buttons/bdButtons.php 77% from 13 tests

The main PHP file in "BD Buttons" ver. 1.0.5 adds more information about the plugin and also serves as the entry point for this plugin
It is important to fix the following:
  • Description: The description should be shorter than 140 characters (currently 223 characters long)
  • Main file name: Even though not officially enforced, the main plugin file should be the same as the plugin slug ("bd-buttons.php" instead of "bdButtons.php")
  • Text Domain: The text domain must be the same as the plugin slug, although optional since WordPress version 4.6
