How to Create WordPress Notification Plugin Extensions

WordPress Notification plugin extension development is a straightforward process that enables developers to create custom functionality and publish it on WordPress.org. This comprehensive guide covers extension creation best practices, naming conventions, and development workflows for building professional-grade notification extensions.

For more details, see Extension Possibilities.

Quickstart​

For your convenience, we created extension boilerplate. You will find it on GitHub.

With such a boilerplate you can be sure to follow our standards but most importantly – you can start your extension blazing fast.

Naming​

We are following specific naming convention which is: Notification : Something.

The namespace should follow the general format which is: BracketSpace/Notification/Something.

The Something is the part where you place your extension's name.

Take a look at existing extensions, like Notification : Signature or Notification : bbPress.

Releasing the plugin​

If your plugin is free and released on WordPress.org you can let us know about your awesome work. After review we will place your plugin in the Notification's Extension Directory!
