Overview I am looking for an experienced WordPress plugin developer (preferably with API/XML integration experience) to create a custom plugin that connects to the GoGlobal Travel API. API documentation: https://support.goglobal.travel/hc/en-us/articles/360021344031-Xml-Specifications-3-12 The plugin should import and manage static data (hotels, countries, cities), perform hotel searches, display results, show hotel details, handle booking, and finally insert bookings into WooCommerce Orders for payment processing and invoicing. Main Functionality Required 1. Admin Backend (Plugin Settings & Static Data) API credentials input (API key, username/password or token). Currency selection (API-supported currencies). Multilingual support (compatible with WPML). Import & update static content from GoGlobal’s static files: Countries Cities Hotels (basic info, images, etc.) Cron job or manual “Sync” button for static data. Logs page (API errors, requests/responses preferably summarized). 2. Frontend Features Search Hotel search form (destination, dates, number of guests/rooms). Shortcode for embedding search form anywhere. Search Results Page List of available hotels returned by API. Filters (price, star rating, board type, etc.). Pagination and sorting. Hotel Details Page Hotel description (from static data + API as needed). Image gallery. Available room types (real-time via API). Price & fare rules. Cancellation policies.

If successful, store response details & booking reference. 3. WooCommerce Integration After booking confirmation: Create a WooCommerce Order programmatically.

Efficient caching for improved speed (transients or custom tables). Secure input handling & sanitization. All templates overrideable via theme folder.
