Things change rapidly in the WordPress world. The content in this post is more than a year old and may no longer represent best practices.
At the September 2018 meetup, Jamie Bergen gave a recap of her WordCamp Sacramento 2018 presentation about what she learned developing a plugin and releasing it in the WordPress.org plugin repository.
Description: Lessons Learned Releasing My First WordPress Plugin
Jamie recently released her first plugin, Plugin Notes Plus, on the WordPress.org plugin repository. This talk will give aspiring plugin authors a behind-the-scenes look into the process of building a plugin, submitting the plugin for approval, and handling support requests. The process wasn’t seamless, but she learned from her mistakes, and is hoping you will too!
