Please fix the following
  • 3× PHP files trigger server errors when accessed directly:
    • > PHP Fatal error
      Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function plugin_dir_url() in wp-content/plugins/theme-editor/ms_child_theme_editor.php:4
    • > PHP Fatal error
      Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function plugin_dir_url() in wp-content/plugins/theme-editor/theme_editor.php:12
    • > PHP Warning
      Use of undefined constant WP_PLUGIN_DIR - assumed 'WP_PLUGIN_DIR' (this will throw an Error in a future version of PHP) in wp-content/plugins/theme-editor/theme_editor.php on line 11

User-side errors Passed 1 test

Optimizations

Plugin configuration 90% from 29 tests

readme.txt 88% from 16 tests

Often overlooked, readme.txt is one of the most important files in your plugin
These attributes need your attention:
  • Tags: There are too many tags (12 tag instead of maximum 10)
  • Screenshots: Please add images for these screenshots: #14 (Preview Theme), #15 (Child Theme Permission)
The official readme.txt might help

theme-editor/theme_editor.php 92% from 13 tests

The main PHP file in "Theme Editor" ver. 2.8 adds more information about the plugin and also serves as the entry point for this plugin
Please make the necessary changes and fix the following:
  • Main file name: The principal plugin file should be the same as the plugin slug ("theme-editor.php" instead of "theme_editor.php")
