Implementation overview

We began with a clear objective to develop a custom WordPress plugin that extends the core functionality of the client’s website, enabling features that could not be achieved without custom coding.

The plugin automates email sending in the background using WP Background Processing, ensuring efficient email delivery without impacting site performance. It also registers custom dynamic tags for Elementor, providing greater flexibility in designing dynamic content. Additionally, the plugin manages post expiration dates by setting up a daily cron job to automatically update them, ensuring posts remain up-to-date. This solution was tailored to the client’s needs, enhancing the site’s capabilities in ways not possible with out-of-the-box tool.
