FREE WordPress Plugins
My passion is developing WordPress software that helps automate and standardize tedious processes.
Here’s the WordPress plugins that I currently offer and work on. Each one is available for free!
Completionist — Asana for WordPress
Completionist is a WordPress plugin for integrating Asana, the popular task management service. It allows you to track Asana tasks throughout areas of your WordPress admin. You can also display rich content embeds of Asana projects on your WordPress website. Finally, Completionist lets you automatically create Asana tasks as events happen on WordPress.
Here’s a few places you may have seen Completionist mentioned:
- Featured as the Top Asana Integration for WordPress by WPForms since 2021 🏆
- Original announcement post in the Asana Community Forum received great interest with 550+ clicks, and still counting 👀
- Recognized in “The ultimate guide for doing things with Asana” by Forum Leader and Asana Partner, Bastien Siebman, in the Asana Community Forum 📌
**Completionist by Purple Turtle Creative is not associated with Asana. Asana is a trademark and service mark of Asana, Inc., registered in the U.S. and in other countries. Learn more.
Grouped Content — Page Hierarchy Navigation
This simple WordPress plugin adds helpful navigation and reporting features for hierarchical post types, including WordPress’s native “page” type.
This plugin is available for free download in the official WordPress.org plugins directory.

What is WordPress API integration?
“API” stands for “application programming interface”. Most well-known software services and web technologies offer an API such as Slack, Twitter, Asana, Mailchimp, Google—you name it!
An API is how a WordPress developer, such as myself, can perform actions and receive data from your other digital services. This unlocks unlimited, powerful possibilities to automate processes and personalize experiences across web technologies—including your very own WordPress website!
Here’s just a few examples of the WordPress API integrations that I have architected and delivered:
- ✏️ Create custom WordPress posts by importing research data from Google Sheets
- ✅ Display Asana projects in WordPress posts and complete Asana tasks within the WordPress admin
- 📈 Track usage analytics and system metrics into Google Analytics from WordPress experiences
- 📹 Optimize WordPress users’ video uploads via Mux in the BuddyBoss WordPress theme
- 🛍 Tag WooCommerce customers in the relevant Keap CRM property
- 📲 Send direct SMS text messages to WordPress site members via Twilio
- 💬 Register new WordPress users from Facebook Messenger chat flows
- … and many more process automations and creative user experiences!
