Skip to main content

Submit

npx pressship submit ./my-plugin

submit is the explicit WordPress.org review upload flow. It is equivalent to publish --submit.

It will:

  1. discover the plugin main file;
  2. parse WordPress plugin headers;
  3. parse and validate readme.txt;
  4. validate readme.txt with WordPress.org;
  5. build a WordPress-installable zip;
  6. stage package contents for Plugin Check;
  7. run the official WordPress.org Plugin Check;
  8. ask for confirmation when blocking findings are reported;
  9. upload the zip to WordPress.org.

If WordPress.org already has a pending submission matching the plugin slug or name, Pressship uses the reupload form instead of the new-plugin form.

Options​

npx pressship submit ./my-plugin --dry-run
npx pressship submit ./my-plugin --no-verify
npx pressship submit ./my-plugin --skip-plugin-check
npx pressship submit ./my-plugin --skip-readme-validator
npx pressship submit ./my-plugin --wp-path /path/to/wordpress
npx pressship submit ./my-plugin --ignore "assets/**/*.mp4"
npx pressship submit ./my-plugin --output-dir ./build
npx pressship submit ./my-plugin --yes

Use --no-verify only when you intentionally want to skip both readme validation and Plugin Check before uploading. Use --skip-plugin-check when you only want to bypass Plugin Check.
