Emailed Author: There are issues with your plugin code. Please read this ENTIRE email, address all listed issues, and reply to this email with your corrected code attached. It is required for you to read and reply to these emails, and failure to do so will result in significant delays with your plugin being accepted.

## Calling file locations poorly

The way your plugin is referencing other files is not going to work with all setups of WordPress.

When you hardcode in paths, or assume that everyone has WordPress in the root of their domain, you cause anyone using ‘Giving WordPress it’s own directory’ (a VERY common setup) to break. In addition, WordPress allows users to change the name of wp-content, so you would break anyone who choses to do so.

Please review http://codex.wordpress.org/Determining_Plugin_and_Content_Directories and update your plugin accordingly. And don’t worry about supporting WordPress 2.x or lower. We don’t encourage it nor expect you to do so, so save yourself some time and energy.

Example:

/wp-content/plugins/seo-score-dashboard/img/loadbar.gif
