If you're a legitimate retail business or merchant, I'd think you want to be able to track your payments easily, so why not Coinbase or Bitpay? I'm sure they have analytical tools and you can see all sorts of statistics on your customer base, so the % they take is well spent.

If you decide just to email your customers a link each time they want to buy something, you'd have to generate a new BTC address or new QR code each time which is pretty inconvenient on your end, or they'll be able to check your available wallet funds.

If bitcoin will result in 3rd parties taking over my transactions then to me it has already failed. What is the point of moving from the current banking system to one that will work exactly the same. I am not doing anything illegal and pay all my taxes...

Regarding the PHP function is there anything already built offered for free or sold anywhere that works with wordpress ?

If course you don't have to use 3rd parties. There are so many options. You can have cold addresses or install bitcoind to keep it automatic.
