    Bio

    Full-Stack PHP Developer based in the UK with 9+ years building on WordPress and Laravel — from my first theme customisations in 2013 to production platforms serving real businesses today.

    My specialism is integration work: I’ve designed and integrated 100+ APIs across client projects — property management systems (Guesty, Hostaway, Hostfully, Smoobu), payment gateways (Stripe, PayPal), CRMs, shipping, and marketing platforms — alongside building custom REST APIs from scratch with OAuth2/JWT authentication.
    On WordPress itself: custom plugin development, bespoke theme builds and customisations, and WooCommerce solutions — 100+ delivered projects with 200+ five-star client reviews on international freelance platforms.

    Current work: architecting a WooCommerce + LearnDash learning platform on WordPress Multisite — seven custom database tables, a 30+ endpoint REST API, and cron-driven automation. I write about these architecture decisions at dev.to/aasimghaffar, and I’m publishing plugins to the WordPress.org directory.
    Founder of CubixSol.

    WordPress Origin Story

    My WordPress story started in 2013, in my first developer job in Pakistan

    — customising themes and building small business sites with PHP. I discovered I could take an idea and turn it into a live website in days, and I was hooked.

    Nine years later, WordPress became my career. I’ve delivered hundreds of client projects across WordPress and WooCommerce

    — eCommerce stores, booking platforms, and membership sites
    — and found my specialism in the deeper end: custom plugin development, REST API design, and integrating WordPress with external systems like property management platforms (Guesty, Hostaway), payment gateways (Stripe, PayPal), and CRMs.

    Today I work from the UK, building production systems like a WooCommerce + LearnDash learning platform on WordPress Multisite

    — custom database tables, a 30+ endpoint REST API, and all the interesting problems that come with it. After years of building on top of the plugin ecosystem, I’m now contributing to it with my own plugins in the directory.
