Optimizations

Plugin configuration 90% from 29 tests

readme.txt 88% from 16 tests

The readme.txt file is important because it is parsed by WordPress.org for the public listing of your plugin
These attributes need your attention:
  • Screenshots: A description for screenshot #7 is missing in cp-related-posts/assets to your readme.txt
  • Tags: There are too many tags (28 tag instead of maximum 10)
The official readme.txt is a good inspiration

cp-related-posts/cp-related-posts.php 92% from 13 tests

The primary PHP file in "CP Related Posts" version 1.0.46 is used by WordPress to initiate all plugin functionality
You should first fix the following items:
  • Description: Please keep the plugin description shorter than 140 characters (currently 182 characters long)
