The $text parameter must be a single text string literal. Found: $_classes_a
Global variables defined by a theme/plugin should start with the theme/plugin prefix. Found: "$_classes_a".
All output should be run through an escaping function (like esc_html_e() or esc_attr_e()), found '_e'.
All output should be run through an escaping function (see the Security sections in the WordPress Developer Handbooks), found '$data['class']'.
$_GET['yotuwp_rating_ignore_notice'] not unslashed before sanitization. Use wp_unslash() or similar
Detected usage of a possibly undefined superglobal array index: $_POST['data']. Check that the array index exists before using it.
Processing form data without nonce verification.
PHP file should prevent direct access. Add a check like: if ( ! defined( 'ABSPATH' ) ) exit;
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.
date() is affected by runtime timezone changes which can cause date/time to be incorrectly displayed. Use gmdate() instead.
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.
Detected usage of a non-sanitized input variable: $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']
Mismatched text domain. Expected 'yotuwp-easy-youtube-embed' but got 'yotuwp-pro'.
The plugin name includes a restricted term. Your chosen plugin name - "Video Gallery - YouTube Playlist, Channel Gallery by YotuWP" - contains the restricted term "wp" which cannot be used at all in your plugin name.
Function "sanitize_textarea_field()" requires WordPress 4.7.0, but your plugin minimum supported version is WordPress 4.5.0.
Found single-underscore "_()" function when double-underscore expected.
Short URL detected (bit.ly). Use full URLs instead of URL shorteners.
Classes declared by a theme/plugin should start with the theme/plugin prefix. Found: "PB_SDK_Tracking".
Global constants defined by a theme/plugin should start with the theme/plugin prefix. Found: "YTDS".
strip_tags() is discouraged. Use the more comprehensive wp_strip_all_tags() instead.
The parameter "FALSE" at position #2 of load_plugin_textdomain() has been deprecated since WordPress version 2.7.0. Use "" instead.
Resource version not set in call to wp_register_script(). This means new versions of the script may not always be loaded due to browser caching.
In footer ($in_footer) is not set explicitly wp_register_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.
The $text text string should have translatable content. Found: '%s'
