Optimizations

Plugin configuration 93% from 29 tests

readme.txt 94% from 16 tests

You should put a lot of thought into formatting readme.txt as it is used by WordPress.org to prepare the public listing of your plugin
These attributes need to be fixed:
  • Tags: Too many tags (62 tag instead of maximum 10); only the first 5 tags are used in your directory listing
The official readme.txt might help

social-gallery-lite/SocialGalleryLite.php 92% from 13 tests

The entry point to "Social Gallery Lite" version 3.1 is a PHP file that has certain tags in its header comment area
The following require your attention:
  • Main file name: Even though not officially enforced, the main plugin file should be the same as the plugin slug ("social-gallery-lite.php" instead of "SocialGalleryLite.php")
