About

I’m Reinis Āboliņš, a WordPress and WooCommerce backend developer with strong technical skills in PHP and modern web tooling. I’ve delivered 100+ agency WordPress/WooCommerce sites using custom themes built on starter frameworks (ACF Pro, Gutenberg blocks, and multilingual WPM/ WPML setups), and I’m comfortable extending functionality with tailored post types, taxonomies, and clean integrations.

I also take ownership of ongoing site maintenance—updates, performance and security cleanups, and PHP 8 migrations—plus app-style Laravel work when needed. Alongside WordPress and WooCommerce checkout/shipping/payment customizations, I support integrations with accounting/ERP tools (e.g., Horizont, Ozols, 1C) and API services using PHP, MySQL, JavaScript, jQuery, and HTML/CSS workflows. I’m available through my own company, Crux SIA, and have experience delivering reliable fintech web development earlier in my career.

Lakeside – real-estate sales website with interactive apartment selection

Brief: a sales website for Lakeside, a new residential quarter of nine buildings and 67 apartments in Mežaparks, Riga. Buyers need to find the right apartment quickly and send an enquiry; the sales team needs to update prices and availability themselves. What I built Custom WordPress theme built from the HTML/SCSS design prototype, with GSAP scroll animations and smooth scrolling Interactive SVG site map: choose a building and see its apartments and availability Filterable apartment table: floor, rooms and area range sliders, "available only" and "penthouse" toggles Apartment detail lightbox loaded via AJAX: specs, floor and site plans, compass orientation, downloadable files, gallery, price or "price on request" Apartments and buildings managed in the admin (custom post type + building taxonomy with ACF fields), so prices and status change without a developer Page content built from custom ACF Gutenberg blocks Three languages (English, Latvian, Russian) with WPML and translated URLs Enquiry forms sent to Zoho CRM; structured data (JSON-LD) for search engines Result: live at lakeside.apartments](https://www.twine.net/signin Stack: WordPress, PHP, ACF Pro, WPML, GSAP, Swiper, SCSS, Ninja Forms + Zoho CRM.

WP Tester – automated website health checks (Node.js + Playwright)

Brief: my own tool. After WordPress and plugin updates something often breaks quietly: a fatal error on one page, a broken script, a missing image. I wanted a one-click check that finds it before the client does, and a clear report I can hand to a client. What I built Crawler that reads the sitemap and opens each page in a real headless browser (Chromium via Playwright) Finds PHP fatal errors, JavaScript errors, broken assets and 4xx / 5xx responses Clicks popups and tabs to reach hidden content, and takes screenshots Mobile speed check with Lighthouse Flags outdated plugins, a publicly accessible debug log and missing security headers Two modes: passive (visitor-like, respects robots.txt, limited pages) and owner (full checks on sites I maintain) Generates branded client reports (HTML / PDF) in Latvian and English, published to a protected client portal with an access code Web interface (Express) and command-line interface Result: used in day-to-day maintenance work to verify sites after every update round, and to produce site-check reports for clients. Stack: Node.js, Express, Playwright, Lighthouse.
