Wordpress Plugin Development

Covers the full WordPress plugin development cycle from scaffolding to security, with updated support for WordPress 7.0 features like the Abilities API, AI Connectors, and Real-Time Collaboration. You'll want this when building admin interfaces with DataViews, registering REST endpoints, or integrating AI functionality through the new wp_ai_client_prompt() function. The workflow chains together skills like app-builder for setup, api-design-principles for REST endpoints, and wordpress-penetration-testing for security audits. Includes practical code examples for RTC-compatible post meta registration and AI-powered content generation. The honest take: this is comprehensive but assumes you already understand WordPress fundamentals. If you're still figuring out the hooks system, start with Phase 3 before jumping into the 7.0 features.
