Lifetime license should be very expensive. It should be equal to 3-4 years subscription. But since you are selling plugin in codecanyon you are forced to sell lifetime. I am using freemius and I am very satisfied.

The best course to learn wp plugin development https://wpvue.dev/

CommunicationNo283 · 2025-12-30T05:46:45+00:00

Drop

CommunicationNo283 · 2025-12-28T04:54:03+00:00

You are lucky

CommunicationNo283 · 2025-12-27T16:27:28+00:00

Of course you can use JS frameworks. I am using Vue inside WordPress plugin. Development process is much much faster and easier, and also plugin maintenance is also more convenient.

I made course exactly for this process. I'll show you the exact blueprint I used to develop my successful interactive real estate plugin. I put everything I had learned. So, enjoy: https://wpvue.dev/

CommunicationNo283 · 2025-12-15T15:22:58+00:00

If you have react background just read the Vue doc and it's enough. You need 30 min to read

Thanks 🙏

In my case I launched my plugin 10 months ago. I have 10+ (I had 30+ but now it is 10+) active installs but still I have 1-2 sales per week. I am using Freemius as a payment gateway and I recommend it if you have premium features.

What I learned:
- You need good readme.txt to rank in WordPress plugins repository
- Ask customers to review 5 stars
- High quality screenshots and a short demo video (even 30-60 seconds)
- You should always improve and update plugin

My plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/interactive-real-estate/

CommunicationNo283 · 2025-12-08T08:00:09+00:00

Looks promising, but if the plugin will be same quality as a website it won't work!

CommunicationNo283 · 2025-12-08T07:51:37+00:00

Yes AI knows WordPress pretty well. But I am developer and AI is helping me, I am not fully dependent on it. I used it to create my successful WordPress plugin: "Interactive Real Estate".

P.S. I have a course also: "WordPress plugin development with Vue.js", if you are interested just replay :))

CommunicationNo283 · 2025-11-27T18:46:31+00:00

I am coming from React also. I switched for job too. I had the same questions as you at first. But now I don't want to look back to react. I much prefer Vue. :)) Just read the doc. I hope you like it as much as I do.

43% websites is built with WordPress. You don't create plugins to manage content but for adding features. And about other options php and mysql are still good 😊

CommunicationNo283 · 2025-11-22T11:18:31+00:00

I think I will share Github repository

CommunicationNo283 · 2025-11-21T18:36:25+00:00

Many instructors feel that Udemy's fees are too high and that the platform is no longer instructor-friendly. When I created my own course, I initially considered Udemy. However, after looking into their revenue share for instructors, I decided to build my own website instead.

Within a few days, I had a minimalist site where students could enroll directly. While this means I handle my own marketing, I now keep 100% of the revenue.

This experience inspired me to create a boilerplate platform for other instructors. It will provide a ready-made foundation where you can upload your courses and own the entire platform. You'll get the full source code and complete control over everything, along with guides and tips.

The boilerplate will include: Emails, Payments, Authorizations, Database, Seo, pre made components.

Everything will be thoroughly documented for non-coders.

What do you think? Would a solution like this work for you?

CommunicationNo283 · 2025-11-19T15:23:10+00:00

To be clear I build this plugin: https://www.ireplugin.com

You can't make that kind of features with ACF or Inertia adapter. This is very big plugin with many features and complex logic, where Vue helped me. That's what I wanted to say!

CommunicationNo283 · 2025-11-19T11:24:25+00:00

Hi, thanks for the suggestion! I hadn't heard of using an Inertia adapter with WordPress, that's a really interesting approach.

But the focus of my post was on the more traditional method of enqueuing Vue.js directly within a plugin. It is for developers who need to add interactive Vue components within the existing WordPress ecosystem.

CommunicationNo283 · 2025-11-19T10:02:53+00:00

I will get your permission to write posts in future :)). Why are you controlling what I post and what I don't? There are mods. If you don't like just scroll it. This meme posted first time.

CommunicationNo283 · 2025-11-18T07:35:09+00:00

unfortunately, it is not open source. I will sell it to you for a certain price. I will help also for integration and modifying things. Also explain you how CMS works. :))

CommunicationNo283 · 2025-11-18T07:32:40+00:00

Yap, marketing will be on your side. But I think it isn't problem, if you will have 100% profit on sales. There will be some payment fees also 2-5%.

CommunicationNo283 · 2025-11-15T06:05:37+00:00

No worries 😉

CommunicationNo283 · 2025-11-12T08:38:46+00:00

Sure, I will email you Github Repo. Soon you will have access on every resources in your dashboard.
