Lab notes
HW Core — custom WordPress plugin we keep building on
Our in-house plugin stack: live dashboard, GSC OAuth, API Vault, LLMS module, and market visibility — sandbox first, client networks second.
What HW Core is
Heavyweight Core is our custom WordPress plugin — not a theme bolt-on. It gives multi-site operators a Live Dashboard landing page, Search Performance (Google Search Console), Market Visibility scans, API Vault for client-owned credentials, and llms.txt output for AI crawlers.
Version trail (recent)
| Release | Highlights |
|---|---|
| 2.3.0 | Live Dashboard as default admin landing |
| 2.4.0 | GSC + DataForSEO telemetry cards |
| 2.4.2 | Connect-with-Google OAuth (no manual refresh tokens) |
| 2.4.4 | Market Visibility UX + link labels |
Workflow
We QA on hw.thatonefirm.com, package a POSIX zip, then deploy to client networks (House of Cannabis production is the current flagship).
Philosophy
Clients own their keys and data. Vault entries stay in their WordPress install — we configure, they retain.
