Plugins are half the story. I also build and fix sites.

Direct client work, done by the same person who builds the plugins: one developer, fifteen years of WordPress, no account managers between you and the fix.

A broken square rejoined by a periwinkle stitch: broken sites get mended here.

What I can do for you

From five-alarm emergencies to slow-burn projects.

Site builds & redesigns

Whole sites, designed and built: custom themes, commerce, editorial layouts. The recent work below is what that looks like.

WordPress repair

White screens, hacked installs, plugin conflicts, layouts that fell over after an update. One-off rescues, priced as one-offs.

Monthly maintenance

Updates, backups, monitoring, and small fixes handled before you notice them — a developer on call without a developer on payroll.

Migrations & imports

Platform moves and legacy-CMS escapes, archives included. I recently moved 78,000 newspaper articles without losing a byline.

Speed & performance

Caching, Core Web Vitals, and the unglamorous database work that makes a site feel new again.

Something odder

Custom applications on top of WordPress — job boards, directories, portals. If it’s strange, I’m interested.

Gravity Forms, consulted & extended

Gravity Forms can run registrations, portals, approval workflows, and entire businesses — if someone wires it up properly. That’s a specialty here, not a sideline.

  • Custom add-on development — features Gravity Forms doesn’t have, built as proper add-ons with settings, licensing, and updates.
  • Integrations — connecting your forms to CRMs, newsletters, payment systems, and internal tools.
  • Workflow design — multi-step forms, conditional logic that stays maintainable, Save & Continue flows that don’t lose people.
  • Form rescue — untangling the 40-field monster somebody built in 2019.

If a problem is form-shaped, there’s a good chance I’ve already built the fix — and if I haven’t, I’ll build it for you.
