1 sources
Use the official docs instead of going off what people say to do on stackoverflow and the other wp seo spam sites out there. The snippets are often not optimized correctly, using an outdated method, or just insecure. I suggest going through the VIP docs as well as they have some really good advice on securing and speeding up wordpress along with what to avoid. https://docs.wpvip.com/technical-references/ Also just a tip: https://github.com/WordPress/WordPress-Coding-Standards
