What is a plugin?

 Plugins are packages of code that extend the core functionality of WordPress. WordPress plugins are made up of PHP code and can include other assets such as images, CSS, and JavaScript.

By making your own plugin you are extending WordPress, i.e. building additional functionality on top of what WordPress already offers. For example, you could write a plugin that displays links to the ten most recent posts on your site.

Or, using WordPress’ custom post types, you could write a plugin that creates a full-featured support ticketing system with email notifications, custom ticket statuses, and a client-facing portal. The possibilities are endless!

Plugins are tools that can help you enhance the functionality of your website, without the need to learn coding. You can think of them as apps that give you more control over your content. Not all plugins are free, and some tools come with premium versions and add-ons. Paid plugins can provide more versatility, features, and support. However, it’s up to you to decide if you require premium software for your site.
