    • > PHP Fatal error
      Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function is_admin() in wp-content/plugins/melascrivi/admin.php:2
    • > PHP Fatal error
      Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function add_action() in wp-content/plugins/melascrivi/admin_init.php:4

      Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function is_admin() in wp-content/plugins/melascrivi/melascrivi_plugin.php:15

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)

It's important to format your readme.txt file correctly as it is parsed for the public listing of your plugin
Attributes that need to be fixed:
  • Plugin Name: You should set the name of your plugin on the first line ( === melascrivi === )
The official readme.txt is a good inspiration

melascrivi/melascrivi_plugin.php 92% from 13 tests

The principal PHP file in "melascrivi-plugin" v. 1.4 is loaded by WordPress automatically on each request
It is important to fix the following:
  • Main file name: Name the main plugin file the same as the plugin slug ("melascrivi.php" instead of "melascrivi_plugin.php")
