Smoke tests 75% from 4 tests

Server-side errors Passed 1 test

🔹 Test weight: 20 | This is a shallow check for server-side errors
Even though everything seems fine, this is not an exhaustive test

The following issues need your attention
  • 1× PHP files trigger server-side errors or warnings when accessed directly:
    • > PHP Fatal error
      Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function add_action() in wp-content/plugins/chatra-live-chat/chatra.php:16

User-side errors Passed 1 test

🔹 Test weight: 20 | Just a short smoke test targeting errors on the browser (console and network errors and warnings)

Optimizations

Plugin configuration 87% from 29 tests

readme.txt 88% from 16 tests

Often overlooked, readme.txt is one of the most important files in your plugin
Attributes that need to be fixed:
  • Screenshots: These screenshots have no corresponding images in /assets: #1 (Operator dashboard with visitor information. Shows you everything you want to know about your visitors.), #2 (Clean and easy to learn. Beautifully designed on both visitor's and agent's sides.), #3 (Operator dashboard.), #4 (Reports - Satisfaction report.), #5 (Distinctive Features. Fully customizable: pick a look to match your website design.), #6 (By humans for humans :))
  • Tags: Too many tags (18 tag instead of maximum 10); only the first 5 tags are used in your directory listing
Please take inspiration from this readme.txt

chatra-live-chat/chatra.php 85% from 13 tests

The principal PHP file in "Chatra Live Chat + ChatBot + Cart Saver" v. 1.0.11 is loaded by WordPress automatically on each request
The following require your attention:
