STANDARD CPD

STANDARD CPD is VVRapid’s mid-tier package for a full-featured WordPress plugin with more power and flexibility than a simple custom build. It is ideal when you need advanced capabilities, REST API integration and third-party services, but do not yet need a repository-ready plugin.

A full-featured WordPress plugin for serious use

This package is a good fit when BASIC CPD feels too limited. STANDARD CPD suits you if:

• You want a full-featured WordPress plugin with multiple capabilities, not just one small feature.
• You need a structured settings screen with more options for site admins.
• You plan to integrate your site with one external API or web service.
• You care about performance and security as the plugin grows.

You get a robust plugin that can support real business workflows and more complex behaviour while still being understandable and maintainable.

What’s included in STANDARD CPD

With STANDARD CPD, VVRapid develops a full-featured WordPress plugin with these attributes:

• Functional WordPress plugin: Yes – a complete, installable plugin ready to activate on your site.
• Source code: Yes – full access to the plugin source code.
• Detailed code comments: Detailed – key classes, functions and flows are well commented to help future developers.
• Admin settings screen: Structured options – an organised settings screen with clear sections and fields.
• REST API integration: 1 – one REST API integration or custom endpoint included.
• Third-party integrations: Yes – integration with one or more external services as defined in the scope.
• Performance optimisation: Standard – we optimise queries, hooks and loading to keep things efficient.
• Security best practices: Yes – we apply WordPress security best practices to reduce risk.
• WordPress.org ready: No – this plugin is not prepared for WordPress.org submission in this package.
• Revisions: 4 revisions to refine features, options and behaviour after your review.
• Delivery: Approximate delivery time of 14 days from project start.

The result is a full-featured WordPress plugin that can support more complex scenarios than BASIC CPD, with a stronger structure and better integration options.

Typical use cases for STANDARD CPD

You might choose STANDARD CPD for:

• A plugin that connects your site to one key external system, such as a CRM or booking tool.
• A membership or access-control plugin with more advanced logic and settings.
• A plugin that exposes or consumes data through the WordPress REST API.
• A tool that needs several configuration sections and options in the admin area.

In these cases, a small, simple plugin would be too limited. A full-featured WordPress plugin gives you enough space to design proper flows, settings and integrations.

How the STANDARD CPD process works

1. Requirements and planning
   We start by clearly defining what your full-featured WordPress plugin must do. We outline features, admin settings, REST API needs and any third-party services to be integrated.
2. Architecture and plugin structure
   VVRapid sets up a solid plugin architecture, using WordPress coding standards and best practices. We organise files, classes and hooks so the plugin is easy to navigate and extend later.
3. Admin settings and UX
   We design a structured admin settings screen with grouped options and clear labels. The goal is a settings page that feels natural to WordPress users and easy for your team to manage.
4. Core feature development and integrations
   We build the main features of your plugin and connect your chosen REST API or third-party service. This might include syncing data, triggering remote actions or exposing information via custom endpoints.
5. Performance and security tuning
   We apply standard performance optimisation, reduce unnecessary database calls and follow WordPress security guidelines. This helps your full-featured WordPress plugin run smoothly on busy sites.
6. Testing, handover and revisions
   You test the plugin on your site or staging environment. You then request changes, and we use your four revisions to adjust behaviour, improve error handling and polish the admin UX. After approval, we hand over the final version and source code.

When STANDARD CPD is the right choice – and how it fits with other packages

Choose STANDARD CPD when:

• BASIC CPD is too limited for your needs.
• You need REST API support, third-party integrations and a structured settings screen.
• You want a full-featured WordPress plugin that can support real business processes.

If you only need a small, focused feature with minimal options and no integrations, BASIC CPD is a lighter and more affordable choice.

If your goal is a repository-ready plugin that meets WordPress.org standards, with multi-API support, advanced optimisation and extensive documentation, you can move up to PREMIUM CPD, which is designed for plugins you plan to distribute publicly.

STANDARD CPD gives you a strong middle ground: a full-featured WordPress plugin that is powerful enough for serious projects, without the extra overhead of preparing it for public release.

We test all functional WordPress plugins with the Plugin Check plugin.
