    Cross-Site Publishing Made Simple – Duplicakes

    Duplicakes is a slightly modified version of the WordPress plugin I developed as an intern at IT World Canada to address the challenges of multi-site publishing. By automating the process of duplicating articles, Duplicakes saves editors at least an hour a week. Although this plugin is not publicly available, as it remains an asset of the company, it showcases my skills in PHP, WordPress, and workflow optimization.
