The developer's plugin will go through a pre-screening phase. It indicates that the developer who submitted the plugin properly maintained the WordPress guidelines. The pluggable team will check whether the plugin is sanitized, and tested with the latest version of WordPress. They will also ensure that the plugin is regularly updated and the information about the features are available.
To comply with market-ready plugin sanitization, structures of the codes, functions, vulnerability checking, and security should be maintained properly while submitting it to a platform. Instructions and guidelines about the Plugin features have to provide accordingly. Before you submit the plugin on the platform ensure that it is tested with the latest version of WordPress to ensure the best user experience and compatibility.
When the screening process is completed, the submitted plugin will face code review by the professionals of the Pluggable team. This team will ensure the sanitization, structures, functions, vulnerabilities, regular updates, and security are maintained properly or not. All the plugins will go through a strict security check to protect the users against potential risks.
Usually, these sessions may take 2-3 days after submitting the plugin to Pluggable. If there is any feedback it will not take more than 7 working days of submission.
In this step, the submitted plugin will face a functionality test. The plugin's functionality works as expected and doesn’t conflict with any duplicate functions, plugins of the Pluggable, or the platform's overall system.
Follow the WordPress guidelines strictly. Keep connected with the team after the submission of your plugin. Try to ensure the feedback from the Pluggable team and implement them on time.
