When no existing plugin does what you need
Custom WordPress Plugin Development
Most agencies solve every problem by installing another plugin. That works until it doesn't — until the plugin almost does what you need, or breaks on update, or slows your site to a crawl. We write custom plugins in PHP against the WordPress APIs, so the functionality fits your workflow exactly, stays maintainable, and doesn't drag along features you'll never use.
What's included
Everything you need to deliver an outstanding result.
AI and API integrations
We built a plugin that pulls RSS content, rewrites it through an AI model, and publishes on a schedule — handling rate limits, retries, and output cleanup automatically.
Custom admin interfaces
Settings pages, editable prompts, and controls your team can actually use — so behaviour can change without touching code.
Bespoke widgets and blocks
Live data widgets, Gutenberg blocks, and shortcodes built for your exact use case rather than bent out of a generic plugin.
Scheduled automation
WP-Cron jobs that run reliably in the background — content pipelines, data syncs, and scheduled imports.
Deliverables
Every engagement comes with clear, comprehensive deliverables.
- Custom plugin, versioned and documented
- Admin settings interface
- API integration and error handling
- Scheduled task (cron) configuration
- Installation and handover documentation
- Post-launch support window
Technologies
We work with industry-leading tools and frameworks.
Frequently asked
Why build a custom plugin instead of using an existing one?
When an off-the-shelf plugin covers your need, we'll tell you to use it — that's cheaper for you. Custom development makes sense when nothing does the job, when you'd need three plugins fighting each other, or when an existing one carries so much unused weight it hurts performance.
Can you integrate AI into a WordPress site?
Yes. We built a plugin that rewrites syndicated articles through an AI model into original, structured content — including handling API rate limits, model routing, and cleaning up the output before publishing. See the CryptoLeb case study for the full breakdown.
Will the plugin survive WordPress updates?
We build against documented WordPress APIs rather than hacking around internals, which is what keeps a plugin working across core updates. We also hand over the source so you are never locked to us.
Do we own the code?
Yes. You get the full source, documented, and it is yours to keep, modify, or hand to another developer.
