Even though no errors were found, this is by no means an exhaustive test

Almost there! Just fix the following items
  • 2× 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/cover-crossfade-background/postmeta.php:19
    • > PHP Fatal error
      Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function is_admin() in wp-content/plugins/cover-crossfade-background/index.php:10

User-side errors Passed 1 test

🔹 Test weight: 20 | This is a smoke test targeting browser errors/issues
Everything seems fine, but this is not an exhaustive test
