Classes declared by a theme/plugin should start with the theme/plugin prefix. Found: "WC_Amazon_Payments_Advanced".
$_COOKIE['amazon_Login_accessToken'] not unslashed before sanitization. Use wp_unslash() or similar
All output should be run through an escaping function (see the Security sections in the WordPress Developer Handbooks), found '$customer_id'.
Global variables defined by a theme/plugin should start with the theme/plugin prefix. Found: "$active_plugin".
Detected usage of a non-sanitized input variable: $_GET['AuthenticationStatus']
Hook names invoked by a theme/plugin should start with the theme/plugin prefix. Found: "apa_alexa_notification_payload".
Detected usage of a possibly undefined superglobal array index: $_POST['amazon_action']. Check that the array index exists before using it.
The plugin name includes a restricted term. Your chosen plugin name - "Amazon Pay for WooCommerce" - contains the restricted term "amazon" and cannot be used to begin your plugin name. We disallow the use of certain terms in ways that are abused, or potentially infringe on and/or are misleading with regards to trademarks. You may use the term "amazon" elsewhere in your plugin name, such as "... for amazon".
Global constants defined by a theme/plugin should start with the theme/plugin prefix. Found: "WC_AMAZON_PAY_VERSION".
Functions declared in the global namespace by a theme/plugin should start with the theme/plugin prefix. Found: "wc_apa".
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.
Editor blocks must define "apiVersion" 3 or higher in block.json for WordPress 7.0+ iframe editor compatibility.
PHP file should prevent direct access. Add a check like: if ( ! defined( 'ABSPATH' ) ) exit;
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.
Direct database call without caching detected. Consider using wp_cache_get() / wp_cache_set() or wp_cache_delete().
Mismatched text domain. Expected 'woocommerce-gateway-amazon-payments-advanced' but got 'woocommerce'.
The "/vendor" directory using composer exists, but "composer.json" file is missing.
Tested up to: 6.9 < 7.0. The "Tested up to" value in your plugin is not set to the current version of WordPress. This means your plugin will not show up in searches, as we require plugins to be compatible and documented as tested up to the most recent version of WordPress.
One or more tags were ignored. Please limit your plugin to 5 tags.
