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!
