A function call to __() with texts containing placeholders was found, but was not accompanied by a "translators:" comment on the line above to clarify the meaning of the placeholders.
Multiple placeholders in translatable strings should be ordered. Expected "%1\$s, %2\$s", but got "%s, %s" in "%s Important: %s if a modification was made to a focus page, please request a new focus pages re-audit before asking the AI Consultant to run a new test and re-configure the goals.".
All output should be run through an escaping function (see the Security sections in the WordPress Developer Handbooks), found '$adminPost'.
Missing $domain parameter in function call to esc_attr__().
parse_url() is discouraged because of inconsistency in the output across PHP versions; use wp_parse_url() instead.
Processing form data without nonce verification.
Mismatched text domain. Expected 'squirrly-seo' but got 'hide-my-wp'.
Direct database call without caching detected. Consider using wp_cache_get() / wp_cache_set() or wp_cache_delete().
$_COOKIE['sq_country'] not unslashed before sanitization. Use wp_unslash() or similar
Detected usage of a non-sanitized input variable: $_FILES['favicon']
Use placeholders and $wpdb->prepare(); found interpolated variable $table at "ALTER TABLE `$table` ADD COLUMN post VARCHAR(255) CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_general_ci NOT NULL DEFAULT ''"
date() is affected by runtime timezone changes which can cause date/time to be incorrectly displayed. Use gmdate() instead.
Processing form data without nonce verification.
Detected usage of a possibly undefined superglobal array index: $_FILES['sq_options']['tmp_name']. Check that the array index exists before using it.
wp_redirect() found. Using wp_safe_redirect(), along with the "allowed_redirect_hosts" filter if needed, can help avoid any chances of malicious redirects within code. It is also important to remember to call exit() after a redirect so that no other unwanted code is executed.
Unescaped parameter $query used in $wpdb->get_results()\n$query assigned unsafely at line 354.
File operations should use WP_Filesystem methods instead of direct PHP filesystem calls. Found: fopen().
strip_tags() is discouraged. Use the more comprehensive wp_strip_all_tags() instead.
Scripts must be registered/enqueued via wp_enqueue_script()
The $domain parameter must be a single text string literal. Found: _SQ_PLUGIN_NAME_
File operations should use WP_Filesystem methods instead of direct PHP filesystem calls. Found: readfile().
In footer ($in_footer) is not set explicitly wp_enqueue_script; It is recommended to load scripts in the footer. Please set this value to `true` to load it in the footer, or explicitly `false` if it should be loaded in the header.
Unescaped parameter $table used in $wpdb->get_results()
