WARNING1
PluginCheck.CodeAnalysis.DiscouragedFunctions.load_plugin_textdomainFound

load_plugin_textdomain() has been discouraged since WordPress version 4.6. When your plugin is hosted on WordPress.org, you no longer need to manually include this function call for translations under your plugin slug. WordPress will automatically load the translations for you as needed.

WARNING1
WordPress.DB.SlowDBQuery.slow_db_query_meta_key

Detected usage of meta_key, possible slow query.

WARNING1
WordPress.Security.SafeRedirect.wp_redirect_wp_redirect

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.

WARNING1
WordPress.Security.ValidatedSanitizedInput.InputNotValidated

Detected usage of a possibly undefined superglobal array index: $_POST['vk-ltc-link-nonce']. Check that the array index exists before using it.

ERROR1
WordPress.WP.AlternativeFunctions.parse_url_parse_url

parse_url() is discouraged because of inconsistency in the output across PHP versions; use wp_parse_url() instead.

WARNING1
missing_composer_json_file

The "/vendor" directory using composer exists, but "composer.json" file is missing.

ERROR1

WARNING1
readme_parser_warnings_too_many_tags

One or more tags were ignored. Please limit your plugin to 5 tags.
