A WordPress plugin is software which extends the functionality of WordPress, allowing developers to create new WordPress features.

Free versus commercial

Many WordPress plugins are available for free.

Others are commercial products, commonly with a free starter version, and a pay version which unlocks more features.

Authoring plugins

Authoring new plugins requires some knowledge of PHP, and specific knowledge about the WordPress plugin API.

Many tutorials and examples are available on the web to help developers acquire the necessary knowledge.
