Hi @USERNAME! 👋
Thank you for your contribution to WordPress! 💖
It looks like this is your first pull request to wordpress-develop. Here
are a few things to be aware of that may help you out!
No one monitors this repository for new pull requests. Pull requests must
be attached to a Trac ticket to be considered for inclusion in WordPress
Core. To attach a pull request to a Trac ticket, please include the
ticket's full URL in your pull request description.
Pull requests are never merged on GitHub. The WordPress codebase continues
to be managed through the SVN repository that this GitHub repository
mirrors. Please feel free to open pull requests to work on any
contribution you are making.
More information about how GitHub pull requests can be used to contribute
to WordPress can be found in this blog post.
Please include automated tests. Including tests in your pull request is
one way to help your patch be considered faster. To learn about WordPress'
test suites, visit the Automated Testing page in the handbook.
If you have not had a chance, please review the Contribute with Code page
in the WordPress Core Handbook.
The Developer Hub also documents the various coding standards that are
followed:
- PHP Coding Standards
- CSS Coding Standards
- HTML Coding Standards
- JavaScript Coding Standards
- Accessibility Coding Standards
- Inline Documentation Standards
Thank you,
The WordPress Project

There are a few things missing that should be added:
- The project's Responsible Disclosure policy for security vulnerabilities
should be detailed. This would also be good to add to the
`pull_request_template.md` file to make sure contributors are aware of the
policy before publishing the PR.
- The contributor should be informed that they need to link their
WordPress.org account to their GitHub account to receive proper credit for
their contribution.
