Throughout the first 10 chapters, we implemented the functionality of a forum management system using one main plugin and few other independent plugins. In each chapter, we explained some of the advanced concepts while developing the features related to that concept. So, our application was structured based on modules in WordPress. In the real world, we plan all the features of the application while separating them into sections based on functionality. Here, we have separated them into sections based on WordPress core modules. In the upcoming sections, we are going to fix the inconsistent components in our application and complete the remaining functionality of a basic forum application.
