PHPWordPress APIAction SchedulerWooCommerce Subscriptions

An automated content-revival plugin that pushes old blog posts back to the top of archive pages, RSS feeds, and search-engine indexes. The flagship product of a paid premium tier built on top of the free plugin.

The Problem

Archived blog pages lose organic search ranking over time as the publication date grows stale. New visitors to a content-heavy site never see the older material unless they dig into archives.

The Solution

Built a scheduled republish engine on top of the WooCommerce Action Scheduler library, with configurable intervals, category-based include/exclude rules, and a per-post override.

My Role

Core Architect & Maintainer

Key Challenges

Processing large action queues safely on shared web hosting environments where the default WP-Cron runner is unreliable. Built on Action Scheduler to make the queue processable in chunks without memory spikes.

Measurable ImpactMaintained at 5,000+ active installs in the free tier with a 4.6★ rating, with a paid premium version sold independently. 26 tagged releases on GitHub since launch, latest v1.5.8.

Shuvam Raha Music

Production Live · Premium Build

Next.js 16React 19TypeScriptTailwind CSS v4Vercel

A high-performance music portfolio and guitar-academy website for a working musician. Built on Next.js 16 with the App Router, React 19 server components, Tailwind v4 design tokens, and a custom glassmorphic layout system.

The Problem

An independent musician needed a single site to host a portfolio, course catalog, audio samples, and a secure checkout flow — without paying for a third-party SaaS platform that charges per transaction.

The Solution

Built a custom Next.js site with a centralized region-detection hook (auto-switches INR/USD pricing by visitor geolocation), a structured-data JSON-LD component for SEO, a secure Razorpay-backed checkout wizard, and a glassmorphic design system with custom Tailwind tokens.

My Role

Sole Developer

Key Challenges

Optimising the initial page load for visitors on low-bandwidth mobile networks while still streaming audio samples inline, plus keeping the bundle size under control with React 19's compiler and Next.js 16's `cacheComponents`.

Measurable ImpactReplaced a previous Squarespace site with a 4x faster page load and a single integrated enrollment flow that reduced the checkout drop-off rate.

UPI QR Code Payment Gateway for WooCommerce

4.8★ · 20,000+ Active Installs · Acquired

PHPWooCommerceUPI APIQR Code Generation

A direct peer-to-peer UPI checkout extension for WooCommerce merchants, bypassing standard processing commissions by encoding invoice amounts into dynamic UPI QR codes and validating transactions via banking APIs.

The Problem

Traditional e-commerce payment processors charge 2%+ per transaction, which significantly erodes the operating margins of small WooCommerce merchants selling high-volume low-margin goods.

The Solution

Engineered a direct bank-to-bank gateway extension that generates a unique UPI QR code per invoice, validates the transaction in real time against the banking API, and marks the order as paid in WooCommerce without an intermediary processor.

My Role

Creator & Product Owner

Key Challenges

Keeping client-side QR-code generation and validation fast enough to feel native to the checkout flow, while ensuring the bank-to-bank callbacks are idempotent and secure against replay attacks.

Measurable ImpactReached 20,000+ active installs with a 4.8★ rating on the WordPress plugin directory before being acquired.

Razorpay Payment Links for WooCommerce

4.8★ · 1,000+ Active Installs · Acquired

PHPWooCommerceRazorpay APIEmail Hooks

An automation tool that generates and emails secure Razorpay payment links the moment a WooCommerce invoice is created — removing the manual back-and-forth of asking customers to pay.

The Problem

Manual billing operations and static checkout prompts lead to high shopping-cart abandonment rates, especially for B2B merchants who invoice rather than take payment at the door.

The Solution

Built a backend state hook that listens for WooCommerce order creation, generates a unique Razorpay payment link, and dispatches it to the customer via the store's transactional email — no manual intervention needed.

My Role

Creator & Product Owner

Key Challenges

Integrating the hook into the WooCommerce checkout lifecycle safely without blocking the order status triggers, and ensuring the Razorpay webhook callbacks correctly update the order state on return.

Measurable ImpactReached 1,000+ active installs with a 4.8★ rating on the WordPress plugin directory before being acquired.

Gutena — FSE Theme & Block Ecosystem

Team Lead · 12 Plugins · 1 Theme · Licensing System

ReactGutenberg APIPHPTailwind CSSFSE ThemeEDD Licensing

The complete Gutena product line: an FSE (Full Site Editing) theme, 12 native Gutenberg block plugins, and the licensing/activation system that powers the entire paid ecosystem. I built every plugin in the ecosystem except Gutena Forms, and designed the licensing layer that lets the theme and plugins verify and validate paid customers at runtime.

The Problem

Building a paid WordPress block ecosystem means solving two problems at once — the user-facing block UX, and the back-end license validation that prevents piracy. The license layer has to be invisible to legitimate users, robust against tampering, and integrate with Easy Digital Downloads so renewals and refunds propagate automatically.

The Solution

Architected the 12 native Gutenberg blocks with a shared design-token system and a stable Block API surface, then designed the licensing layer using EDD Software Licensing — license-key activation, deactivation limits per site, automatic expiry handling, and a graceful degradation when the license server is unreachable. The same license key activates the theme + all 12 plugins.

My Role

Frontend Lead · Block Architecture · Licensing System

Key Challenges

Coordinating 12 plugins + 1 theme in parallel without breaking the shared block API surface, while keeping the licensing layer fast (zero round-trips on cached page loads) and reliable (no false-positive license failures on flaky networks).

Measurable ImpactShipped as the default block library for the Gutena theme family. The licensing system is the same layer that powers every paid plugin in the ecosystem — it's the technical backbone of the product line.
