[](#what-is-php-cs-fixer)

The [php-cs-fixer](https://github.com/FriendsOfPHP/PHP-CS-Fixer) or [PHP Coding Standards Fixer](https://cs.symfony.com/) is an awesome tool created by the super awesome people at [Symfony](https://symfony.com/).

### What are WordPress Fixers?

[](#what-are-wordpress-fixers)

WordPress uses a bit different coding standard from the rest of the world. It doesn't follow PSR standards yet.

The aim of this WordPress specific fixers is to allow WordPress developers to standardize their code according to the [WordPress Coding Standard](https://make.wordpress.org/core/handbook/best-practices/coding-standards/php/).

#### Available Fixers

1. **Space Inside Parenthesis**: This fixer ensures that when defining functions, if/else blocks, or control structures which have parenthesis, a space after the starting parenthesis and before the ending parenthesis exists. Rule name: `AiArnob/space_inside_parenthesis`.
2. **Blank Line After Class Opening**: PSR standards have the class opening brace on a new line, WordPress follows the same line standard. This ensures after the opening brace, one blank line exists (equals to two `\n`). Rule name: `AiArnob/blank_line_after_class_opening`.
