WordPress.org Plugin Submission Assets Guide
This document explains how to prepare and upload assets for WordPress.org plugin submission. This is the main reference document for all asset-related information.
WordPress.org SVN Repository Structure
When submitting a plugin to WordPress.org, you'll work with an SVN repository that has this structure:
/assets/ # Contains assets for the WordPress.org plugin page
icon-256x256.png
icon-128x128.png
banner-772x250.png
banner-1544x500.png
screenshot-1.png
/tags/ # Contains tagged releases
/1.6.27/
[plugin files]
/1.6.26/
[plugin files]
/trunk/ # Contains the current version of the plugin
[plugin files]
Right-to-Left (RTL) Support
For languages that read from right to left (like Hebrew and Arabic), you can provide RTL-specific versions of your assets by appending -rtl
to the filename. For example:
banner-772x250-rtl.png
icon-256x256-rtl.png
Note: -rtl
is specifically for Right-to-Left language support, not for dark theme versions.
