Am developing a plugin that I would like to submit to the WordPress.org repo. It’s dependent on Apache License 2.0 code, so I know I should license my plugin with GPLv3 – it’s allowed. So, how do I properly license my plugin? Obviously I should include License: GPLv3 in my plugin’s header, but it feels … Read more

One thing that’s never been clear to me (especially since I haven’t submitted a plugin to the repository) is how a plugin’s unique “ID” (slug) is generated (i.e. this list).
