# WordPress.org Plugin Submission Assets Guide
This document outlines the requirements for assets when submitting a plugin to the WordPress.org plugin repository.
## Asset Requirements
### Icon
- **Format**: PNG
- **Size**: 256x256 pixels
- **Filename**: `icon-256x256.png`
- **Location**: SVN `/assets` directory (not included in the plugin zip)
- **Optional**: You can also include `icon-128x128.png` for backward compatibility
### Banner
- **Format**: PNG
- **Sizes**:
- Regular: 772x250 pixels (`banner-772x250.png`)
- High-DPI: 1544x500 pixels (`banner-1544x500.png`)
- **Location**: SVN `/assets` directory (not included in the plugin zip)
### Screenshots
- **Format**: PNG
- **Naming**: Sequential numbers (`screenshot-1.png`, `screenshot-2.png`, etc.)
- **Location**: SVN `/assets` directory (not included in the plugin zip)
- **Important**: The number and order must match the descriptions in the `readme.txt` file
## Current Status
### Icon
- ✅ SVG source available
- ✅ PNG files created (`icon-256x256.png` and `icon-128x128.png`)
### Banner
- ✅ Both sizes available
- ✅ Properly renamed versions created in `assets/banner-png/`
### Screenshots
- ❌ Only 1 of 3 referenced screenshots available
- ❌ Need to create `screenshot-2.png` and `screenshot-3.png`
- ✅ Properly renamed version of the first screenshot created in `assets/screenshots-png/`
## SVN Directory Structure
When submitting to WordPress.org, your SVN repository will have this structure:
```
/assets/
icon-256x256.png
banner-772x250.png
banner-1544x500.png
screenshot-1.png
screenshot-2.png
screenshot-3.png
/tags/
/1.0.0/
[plugin files]
/1.0.1/
[plugin files]
/trunk/
[current plugin files]
```
## Action Items
1. Convert the SVG icon to a 256x256 PNG file
2. Create the missing screenshots (2 and 3)
3. Ensure all files follow the proper naming convention
4. Upload all assets to the WordPress.org SVN repository in the `/assets` directory
