Description
If your phone were WordPress then Wordpress Plugins are the apps! And of course, we all know that it's really the apps that make our phones great. Basically, if you take this course you'll become a WordPress app developer!
This course takes you from plugin idea to the final product. By the end of the course you will have a working email list building plugin (like MailChimp) and the skills to create, customize and sell your WordPress plugins online!
NOTE: During this course I teach you how to dramatically speed up development by leveraging two popular WordPress plugins: Custom Post Types UI and Advanced Custom Fields. However, your completed plugin DOES NOT REQUIRE THESE PLUGINS TO BE INSTALLED in order to work and I teach this in the course. Custom Post Types UI is a shortcut to generating the PHP code for WordPress's built in register_post_type() function. Later in the course we include this PHP in our own file and no longer need CPTUI. Advanced Custom Fields is a library of functions that makes it easier to create custom fields and save post meta data. This course also covers creating custom fields from scratch without the aid of the Advance Custom Fields plugin.
Who this course is for:
- Web Designers
- Web Developers
- Wordpress Developers
- PHP Programmers
- Anyone wanting to make money online
- Entrepreneurs

After completing the Camino de Santiago (a 900km trek across Spain on foot), Joel returned to a life out of continuity with his new experiences. He soon left his full-time web development gig, left his home in the suburbs and exchanged everything for self-employment and a shared living space with a bunch of artists in Calgary's city core. Joel identifies as a serial entrepreneur. He'll never work "by the hour" again, instead he trades real results with his clients. Joel invites you to escape the rat race and empower yourself to pursue your dreams through learning.
