A third-party AI-driven naming check flagged `a-radio` as too generic for the wp.org Plugin Directory (single common functional word, no distinguishing prefix). The verdict was advisory but defensible — short generic slugs are increasingly rejected as the directory grows past 60K plugins. Fixing it preemptively is cheaper than facing a rejection at submission time. The new slug `rangerhq-radio` matches the public display name "RangerHQ Radio" (unchanged) and lines up with the rest of the RangerHQ plugin family: `rangerhq-spatial`, `rangerhq-glyph`, now `rangerhq-radio`. Changes (packaging only — no player behaviour change): * Text Domain `a-radio` → `rangerhq-radio` across all 125 i18n call sites via in-place sed (esc_html__, _e, __, esc_attr_e and their friends). PHP lint clean post-rename. * `Text Domain:` plugin header in radio.php line 15 → `rangerhq-radio`. * `RADIO_GITEA_URL` constant value → new Gitea repo URL. * README.md install link → new repo URL. * readme.txt FAQ Gitea link → new repo URL. * readme.txt Stable tag → 0.7.5. * inc/about.php — v0.7.5 in "latest" slot; v0.7.4 demoted. Unchanged deliberately (would have been pure churn): * Plugin Name header "RangerHQ Radio" — already correct. * Plugin URI. * Internal constants `RADIO_*` — don't have to match slug. * User-meta keys `radio_state` / `radio_history` / `radio_favourites` — renaming would orphan every existing user's settings on upgrade. * HTML `data-radio-*` attributes — JS controller's element selectors in radio.js, not slug-related. * CSS class names `radio-player`, `radio-about-*` — internal scoping. * Main plugin file name `radio.php`. Migration: existing Gitea-installed copies need their folder renamed on disk (a-radio → rangerhq-radio) + reactivation in WP admin. No data loss because all user-facing state lives in user_meta under unchanged keys. This commit is the file content for v0.7.5; the annotated tag and push will follow the Gitea repo rename (ranger/a-radio → ranger/rangerhq-radio) so the new tag lives in the new URL space from the start.
