+This repository includes configuration files for various AI-powered development tools:
+
+- `.aiconfig` - General AI configuration (model preferences, ignore patterns)
+- `.augmentignore` - Ignore patterns for Augment
+- `.cursorignore` - Ignore patterns for Cursor
+- `.v0ignore` - Ignore patterns for v0
+- `.windsurfignore` - Ignore patterns for Windsurf
+- `.clinerc` - Configuration for Cline
+- `.rooignore` - Ignore patterns for Roo
+- `.geminiignore` - Ignore patterns for Gemini Code Assist
+- `.loveablerc` - Configuration for Loveable
+- `.boltignore` - Ignore patterns for Bolt
+- `.codyignore` - Ignore patterns for Cody
+- `.continuerc` - Configuration for Continue

 ## Project Overview
 
-- **Plugin Name**: Fix 'Plugin file does not exist.' Notices
-- **Repository**: https://github.com/wpallstars/fix-plugin-does-not-exist-notices
-- **Description**: WordPress plugin that adds missing plugins to the plugins list with a "Remove Reference" link to clean up invalid plugin entries and remove error notices.
+- **Plugin Name**: [PLUGIN_NAME]
+- **Repository**: [REPOSITORY_URL]
+- **Description**: [PLUGIN_DESCRIPTION]
+
+This section should be updated with your specific plugin information. The current implementation is for the "Fix 'Plugin file does not exist.' Notices" plugin, which adds missing plugins to the plugins list with a "Remove Notice" link to clean up invalid plugin entries and remove error notices.

 ## Determining Version Increment
 
 After fixing a bug, determine the appropriate version increment:
 
 - **PATCH** (e.g., 1.6.0 → 1.6.1): For most bug fixes that don't change functionality
+  - **IMPORTANT**: Always increment the patch version for every change, even small ones, to make rollbacks easier if issues are found in testing
 - **MINOR** (e.g., 1.6.0 → 1.7.0): For bug fixes that introduce new features or significant changes
 - **MAJOR** (e.g., 1.6.0 → 2.0.0): For bug fixes that introduce breaking changes

 Although this plugin consumes minimal disk space, and doesn't run unless you are on the /wp-admin/plugins.php page, you don't need to keep it active or installed if you don't have this notice to clear — but it is safe to, if you just want it as a part of your overall WordPress stack of enhancements and conveniences.
 
+### How do I fix the "Plugin file does not exist" error in WordPress?
+
+This error occurs when WordPress has a reference to a plugin in its database, but the actual plugin files are missing. Our plugin provides a simple one-click solution: it adds these missing plugins to your plugins list with a "Remove Notice" button that lets you safely remove the database reference.
+
+### Why do I see "The plugin has been deactivated due to an error: Plugin file does not exist"?
+
+This error appears when you've deleted a plugin's files (via FTP or file manager) without properly deactivating it first through the WordPress admin. WordPress still thinks the plugin should be active but can't find its files. Our plugin helps you clean up these references.
+
+### Can this plugin fix errors after migrating a WordPress site?
+
+Yes! After migrating a site, you might see plugin errors if some plugins weren't transferred correctly. This plugin will help you identify and clean up those references without having to edit the database directly.
+
+### Is it safe to remove plugin references that show "Plugin file does not exist"?
+
+Absolutely. If WordPress is showing this error, it means the plugin files are already gone, and you're just cleaning up a database reference. Our plugin uses WordPress's standard functions to safely remove these references without affecting other plugins or site functionality.
+
+### How is this different from manually editing the database?
+
+Manually editing the WordPress database is risky and requires technical knowledge. Our plugin provides a safe, user-friendly way to remove plugin references directly from the WordPress admin interface without any SQL knowledge or database access.

+# WordPress.org Banner Requirements
+
+For WordPress.org plugin submission, you need:
+
+1. Banner images in PNG format
+2. Two sizes:
+   - `banner-772x250.png` (for regular display)
+   - `banner-1544x500.png` (for high-resolution/retina displays)
+3. Place them in the `/assets/` directory of your WordPress.org SVN repository
+
+These files have been renamed from the original files to match WordPress.org's naming-convention and file format requirements.

+# WordPress.org Icon Requirements
+
+For WordPress.org plugin submission, you need to:
+
+1. Convert the SVG icon to PNG format
+2. Create a 256x256 and 128x128 pixel version
+3. Name them `icon-256x256.png` and `icon-128x128.png`
+4. Place them in the `/assets/` directory of your WordPress.org SVN repository
+
+## How to Convert
+
+You can use tools like:
+- Inkscape (free, open-source)
+- Adobe Illustrator
+- Adobe Photoshop
+- Affinity Designer
+- Affinity Photo
+- GIMP
+- Pixelmator
+- Online converters like https://svgtopng.com/
+
+## Command Line Conversion (if you have ImageMagick installed)
+
+```bash
+# For 256x256 icon
+convert -background none -size 256x256 assets/icon/fix-plugin-does-not-exist-notices-icon.svg assets/icon/icon-256x256.png
+
+# For 128x128 icon
+convert -background none -size 128x128 assets/icon/fix-plugin-does-not-exist-notices-icon.svg assets/icon/icon-128x128.png
+```
+
+After creating the PNG file, it should be uploaded to the WordPress.org SVN repository in the assets directory.

 Although this plugin consumes minimal disk space, and doesn't run unless you are on the /wp-admin/plugins.php page, you don't need to keep it active or installed if you don't have this notice to clear — but it is safe to, if you just want it as a part of your overall WordPress stack of enhancements and conveniences.
 
+= How do I fix the "Plugin file does not exist" error in WordPress? =
+
+This error occurs when WordPress has a reference to a plugin in its database, but the actual plugin files are missing. Our plugin provides a simple one-click solution: it adds these missing plugins to your plugins list with a "Remove Notice" button that lets you safely remove the database reference.
+
+= Why do I see "The plugin has been deactivated due to an error: Plugin file does not exist"? =
+
+This error appears when you've deleted a plugin's files (via FTP or file manager) without properly deactivating it first through the WordPress admin. WordPress still thinks the plugin should be active but can't find its files. Our plugin helps you clean up these references.
+
+= Can this plugin fix errors after migrating a WordPress site? =
+
+Yes! After migrating a site, you might see plugin errors if some plugins weren't transferred correctly. This plugin will help you identify and clean up those references without having to edit the database directly.
+
+= Is it safe to remove plugin references that show "Plugin file does not exist"? =
+
+Absolutely. If WordPress is showing this error, it means the plugin files are already gone, and you're just cleaning up a database reference. Our plugin uses WordPress's standard functions to safely remove these references without affecting other plugins or site functionality.
+
+= How is this different from manually editing the database? =
+
+Manually editing the WordPress database is risky and requires technical knowledge. Our plugin provides a safe, user-friendly way to remove plugin references directly from the WordPress admin interface without any SQL knowledge or database access.
