Plugin name | WordPress.org

[ad_1]

Hello,

I wrote my first plugin that I would like to add to the WordPress plugin directory. The plugin name contains the word “plugin” because the main task of the plugin is to perform some actions on the list of plugins.

The readme validator returns a Fatal Error:

Your chosen plugin name – My Plugin Name – contains the restricted term “plugin“, which cannot be used at all in your plugin permalink nor the display name.

I see many plugins in the plugin directory that contain the word “plugin” in their name. Can I use my name or do I have to change it before adding the plugin to the plugin directory?
