Custom WordPress Plugin Development

Get the exact WordPress functionality your business needs, delivered as a clean, self-contained plugin that survives theme and core updates. Whether the feature doesn't exist in any off-the-shelf plugin, or an existing plugin does 80% of what you want and needs the rest, this service turns that gap into working, maintainable code.

What this service covers

This is custom plugin development and customization work (distinct from one-off break-fix debugging). Typical engagements include:

• Building a new plugin from scratch to add a feature your site doesn't have, packaged with its own settings page where it makes sense.
• Extending or modifying existing plugins via hooks, filters and custom add-on plugins, so your changes aren't wiped on the next update.
• Customizing WooCommerce (checkout fields, pricing rules, order flows) and Elementor (custom widgets, dynamic content).
• Adding admin screens, custom post types, REST endpoints, shortcodes and Gutenberg blocks.
• Integrating third-party APIs (payments, CRMs, shipping, mailing lists) into WordPress.

How it's delivered

I start by clarifying the requirement and the acceptance criteria in writing, then build against a local or staging copy of your site. You receive the plugin as an installable ZIP plus a short note on configuration and any hooks exposed. The stack is standard WordPress: PHP, the WordPress Plugin API (actions/filters), WPDB or custom tables, the REST API, and JavaScript where the front end needs it. Code follows WordPress coding standards, sanitizes input and escapes output, and is structured so another developer can pick it up later.

Timeline, revisions and scope

Small customizations typically land in a few days; a from-scratch plugin depends on scope and is quoted up front. Revisions to match the agreed brief are included until the acceptance criteria are met. Out of scope unless we agree separately: ongoing maintenance retainers, paid third-party plugin or API licences, full theme builds, server/hosting administration, and content migration. If the work is purely diagnosing a broken plugin rather than building one, that's better handled as a debugging engagement.
