How to Create a Simple WordPress Plugin | 2021 WordPress Tutorial



If you have a WordPress project, where you need to add some custom code or a WordPress snippet for custom functionality, you defo do NOT want to add that to your Theme’s functions.php file!

Yes, you could add a Child Theme and add the code there or you could install a plugin that allows you to add custom code to your project but why not create your own plugin?

This WordPress tutorial shows my preferred choice, and that’s creating my own “project-specific” plugin so I can add all the custom code in one place without the need for a child theme, hurrah!

    Thank you so much Jakson. It demistifies things.

    But I wonder how as admin, I could insert parameters, if the JS code I'm using needs some parameters?

    If I make a plugin to go on 10 of my websites. Is there a way I can mass update all 10? Without needing to upload them and replace each time? Great video.

    What’s the best place to hire developer to build a plug-in for all WordPress sites, not just mine… and how do we support it if a developer leaves for some other opportunities.

    WOWZER. I'm no programmer, BUT this opens all permutations and possibilities when and if you can't find a solution, if it's a complicated plug-in you can always sell it or offer it as a marketing freebie. Nice Vid [SALE] = Subbed And Liked Enjoy

    I am going to create a public profile directory website using BuddyPress .

    Users will register, then complete their profile, admin will check the information and manually approve them for the directory listing.

    but the problem is, I don't want to waste my time checking incomplete profiles, also I don't know when they will complete their profile, today or a few weeks later.

    so I need a submit biodata button under BuddyPress save button. after filling the required fields, the user will be able to click this submit button. admin will be able to see them separately from incomplete profiles.

    I don't know how to do this. please help

    I need to develop a WooCommerce plugin, I've been told it's just a WordPress plugin. I have quite a task ahead, hoping to make a specific product collect more information and manage customer subscription and fee. Wish me luck!
