Plugin

Add-on software that adds features to a WordPress or WooCommerce site, such as forms, SEO or payments.

What it is WordPress is extended with plugins. There are tens of thousands, free and paid. The PrestaShop equivalent is a module.

The risk Every plugin is third-party code. Forgotten or outdated plugins are one of the most common reasons WordPress sites get hacked.

What we do We keep only what is needed, update plugins regularly and replace those that are no longer maintained.
