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.
$_GET[$var] not unslashed before sanitization. Use wp_unslash() or similar
Global variables defined by a theme/plugin should start with the theme/plugin prefix. Found: "$_blog_id".
Unescaped parameter $agent_clause used in $wpdb->get_results()\n$agent_clause assigned unsafely at line 186.
Functions declared in the global namespace by a theme/plugin should start with the theme/plugin prefix. Found: "_pp_memory_new_usage".
Hook names invoked by a theme/plugin should start with the theme/plugin prefix. Found: "'nav_menu_items_' . $post_type_name".
The $text parameter must be a single text string literal. Found: $_opt_name
PHP file should prevent direct access. Add a check like: if ( ! defined( 'ABSPATH' ) ) exit;
Multiple placeholders in translatable strings should be ordered. Expected "%1$1s, %2$2s", but got "%1s, %2s" in 'ID #%1s: %2s'.
All output should be run through an escaping function (like esc_html_e() or esc_attr_e()), found '_e'.
wp_redirect() found. Using wp_safe_redirect(), along with the "allowed_redirect_hosts" filter if needed, can help avoid any chances of malicious redirects within code. It is also important to remember to call exit() after a redirect so that no other unwanted code is executed.
The parameter ""hide_empty=$hide_empty"" at position #2 of get_terms() has been deprecated since WordPress version 4.5.0. Instead do not pass the parameter.
The $domain parameter must be a single text string literal. Found: $lang_id
In footer ($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.
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.
Detected usage of meta_key, possible slow query.
Global constants defined by a theme/plugin should start with the theme/plugin prefix. Found: "FILTERED_PP".
The $text parameter must not contain interpolated variables or expressions. Found: {$this->pluginName}
Hook names invoked by a theme/plugin should start with the theme/plugin prefix. Found: "$filter_name".
query_posts() is discouraged. Use WP_Query instead.
Use of the "translate()" function is reserved for low-level API usage.
The use of function wp_get_sidebars_widgets() is forbidden
The parameter "array_merge($args, ['number' => '', 'offset' => ''])" at position #2 of wp_count_terms() has been deprecated since WordPress version 5.6.0. Instead do not pass the parameter.
Translatable string should not be wrapped in HTML. Found: '<strong>This plugin can be deleted.</strong>'
