I\u2019m&nbsp;<strong>Daniel Post<\/strong>\u2014the creator behind&nbsp;<strong>Better Loop<\/strong>. I&#8217;ve been working with WordPress for well over a decade, and have worked on hundreds of sites during that time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The idea behind Better Loop was born from my own needs\u2014I was working on a few client websites that all needed similar filters, and I didn&#8217;t love any of the existing solutions in the market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, being a developer, I built my own solution, and when I finished the first version I realised this was something that could be useful to a lot more people than just me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-x-large-font-size\">More about me<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;m from the sunny Netherlands, and I currently live in Amsterdam with my wife and our little dog. WordPress has been a huge part of my professional life pretty much since I&#8217;ve started working: I started out creating custom templates and selling them on ThemeForest, which brought me my first agency job in Amsterdam and later led to a bunch of freelance opportunities for various web agencies in The Netherlands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2021, I released <a href=\"https:\/\/socialimagegenerator.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Social Image Generator<\/a>, a WordPress plugin that would automatically generate social images for your posts and content. It went somewhat viral, with <a href=\"https:\/\/css-tricks.com\/auto-generated-social-media-images\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">CSS-Tricks giving it a glowing review<\/a>, and only a few months later <a href=\"https:\/\/jetpack.com\/resources\/jetpack-acquires-wordpress-plugin-social-image-generator\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Automattic acquired the plugin<\/a> (me included).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After a couple years there I realised I still really wanted to create and sell my own products, which brings us here. Better Loop is the plugin I&#8217;ve always wanted to have, and I couldn&#8217;t be more excited to share it with you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have any questions, feedback, thoughts, complaint, jokes or anything else you&#8217;d like to share with me, please do not hesitate to reach out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can email me at <a href=\"mailto:daniel@betterloopwp.com\">daniel@betterloopwp.com<\/a>, or find me on <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/danielpost\">X<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/bsky.app\/profile\/danielpost.com\">Bluesky<\/a>.
