Unescaped parameter $campaigns_table used in $wpdb->get_var()\n$campaigns_table assigned unsafely at line 401.
date() is affected by runtime timezone changes which can cause date/time to be incorrectly displayed. Use gmdate() instead.

File operations should use WP_Filesystem methods instead of direct PHP filesystem calls. Found: fopen().
Using exclusionary parameters, like exclude, in calls to get_posts() should be done with caution, see https://wpvip.com/documentation/performance-improvements-by-removing-usage-of-post__not_in/ for more information.
Plugin folders are deleted when upgraded. Do not save data to the plugin folder using unzip_file(). Detected usage of constant WP_PLUGIN_DIR. Use wp_upload_dir() to get the uploads directory path or save to the database instead.
