Optimizations

Plugin configuration 87% from 29 tests

readme.txt 88% from 16 tests

The readme.txt file is an important file in your plugin as it is parsed by WordPress.org to prepare the public listing of your plugin
Attributes that need to be fixed:
  • Tags: You are using too many tags: 14 tag instead of maximum 10
  • Plugin Name: Write the name of your plugin instead of "Plugin Name" on the first line ( === Post Gallery === )
You can take inspiration from this readme.txt

simple-post-gallery/plugin.php 85% from 13 tests

The principal PHP file in "Post Gallery" v. 2.3.12 is loaded by WordPress automatically on each request
It is important to fix the following:
  • Requires PHP: The required version number must match the one declared in readme.txt ("5.4" instead of "5.6")
  • Main file name: Please rename the main PHP file in this plugin to the plugin slug ("simple-post-gallery.php" instead of "plugin.php")
