WordPress Plugin Development
WordPress plugin development for your specific task
For when the function you need does not exist in off-the-shelf solutions, or an existing plugin does almost what you want — but not quite. A custom plugin solves one specific problem without dragging in a dozen settings you will never touch.
What a plugin can do
- integration with an external service: CRM, accounting, a courier, a payment provider;
- custom post types and fields for your subject area;
- form handling with non-standard logic;
- routine automation: imports, mailings, scheduled status changes;
- WooCommerce extensions — your own pricing, delivery or discount rules;
- editor blocks matched to your content.
How I write them
Through WordPress's own mechanisms — hooks and filters — without editing the core or other people's plugins. That is a matter of principle: after a WordPress or plugin update such edits disappear, and the site breaks at the worst possible moment.
Things that are mandatory and frequently skipped in home-grown solutions: checking user permissions before an action, protecting forms against request forgery, escaping data on output, and using prepared database queries. Without them a plugin becomes a hole in the site's security.
What is included
Discussing the task, development, testing on a copy of the site, installation, and a short set of instructions. The code stays with you — no domain binding and no hidden licence checks.
When you do not need a plugin
If an existing solution covers the task for modest money, I will say so directly. Custom development is justified when nothing suitable exists, or when the available plugins bring far too much baggage with them.
