START SESSION ON INIT

add_action('init', 'pluginStartSession', 1);
function pluginStartSession() {

}

NEW SESSION ON LOGIN / LOGOUT

add_action('wp_logout', 'pluginEndSession');
add_action('wp_login', 'pluginEndSession');

function pluginEndSession() {
    session_destroy ();
}

Enjoy coding ….

I am a full-stack developer. My expertise include:

  • Server, Network and Hosting Environments
  • Data Modeling / Import / Export
  • Business Logic
  • API Layer / Action layer / MVC
  • User Interfaces
  • User Experience
  • Understand what the customer and the business needs


I have a deep passion for programming, design, and server architecture—each of these fuels my creativity, and I wouldn’t feel complete without them.

With a broad range of interests, I’m always exploring new technologies and expanding my knowledge wherever needed. The tech world evolves rapidly, and I love staying ahead by embracing the latest innovations.

Beyond technology, I value peace and surround myself with like-minded individuals.

I firmly believe in the principle: Help others, and help will find its way back to you when you need it.
