Project Summary

Rebus needed Plugin Development that could match the ambitions of the project — not a template solution, but something built specifically for how their business works. Operating in the SaaS space, the brief covered both immediate functional needs and longer-term maintainability.

ConicPlex handled the project from brief to delivery in 4 weeks, working in WordPress alongside the wider stack. This plugin development project built a WordPress plugin from the ground up that generates interactive puzzles like Wordle and Pyramid through unique shortcodes.

The goal was a system the client could rely on and grow with, not one that would need rebuilding when requirements evolved. Every decision, from architecture to UI, was made with that long-term value in mind.

The problem

Rebus wanted to add interactive, Wordle-style puzzles to their site without rebuilding it around a third-party embed or a slow iframe. They needed a way to drop working puzzles into any page or post using nothing more than a shortcode, with enough customization to match their brand.

What we built

This Plugin Development project built a WordPress plugin from the ground up that generates interactive puzzles like Wordle and Pyramid through unique shortcodes. Dynamic functionality and customizable styling let the client edit color schemes, fonts, celebration effects, and animations directly, without touching code, so the puzzle experience could evolve alongside the site.

Delivered

Everything shipped in this build

  • Custom WordPress Plugin Development
  • Shortcode-based puzzle embedding
  • Dynamic puzzle logic and scoring
  • Customizable styling (colors, fonts, animations)
  • Celebration effects for completed puzzles
  • Cross-browser and cross-device testing

The result

Outcomes that mattered

  • A working, brand-matched puzzle experience live on the client’s site
  • Full customization control handed over to the client
  • A reusable shortcode system for adding puzzles to new pages
  • A five-star client review praising creativity and communication

Interactive content keeps visitors on a page longer, but only if it feels native rather than bolted on. This Plugin Development gives Rebus a puzzle system that behaves like a first-class part of the site, not an embedded widget.
