Installation ------------ [](#installation) ### 1. Init the project [](#1-init-the-project) Create a new project in a new folder: It's important to set the ACF PRO key at the beginning otherwise the installation will fail: ``` $ export ACF_PRO_KEY=123abc $ composer create-project circul8/wordpress your-project-folder-name ``` ### 2. Configure the DB [](#2-configure-the-db) Update environment variables in `.env` file: - `DB_NAME` - Database name - `DB_USER` - Database user - `DB_PASSWORD` - Database password - `DB_HOST` - Database host - `WP_ENV` - Set to environment (`development`, `staging`, `production`) - `WP_HOME` - Full URL to WordPress home () - `WP_SITEURL` - Full URL to WordPress including subdirectory () - `AUTH_KEY`, `SECURE_AUTH_KEY`, `LOGGED_IN_KEY`, `NONCE_KEY`, `AUTH_SALT`, `SECURE_AUTH_SALT`, `LOGGED_IN_SALT`, `NONCE_SALT` ### 3. Others [](#3-others) 1. Set your site vhost document root to `/web` folder e.g. `/path/to/site/web/` 2. Access WP admin at `http://example.com/wp/wp-admin` Plugins ------- [](#plugins) ### Pre-installed plugins [](#pre-installed-plugins) 1. [Classic Editor](https://wordpress.org/plugins/classic-editor/) (activated -> MU\* plugin) - We don't use the Gutenberg. 2. [Disable Comments](https://wordpress.org/plugins/disable-comments/) (activated -> MU\* plugin) - All comments must be disabled. We don't use this functionallity. Also, it's a security hole. 3. [Duplicate Post](https://wordpress.org/plugins/duplicate-post) (activated -> MU\* plugin) - Administration UX tweak to easily copy/paste posts. 4. [Post Types Order](https://wordpress.org/plugins/post-types-order) (activated -> MU\* plugin) - Administration UX tweak to easily reorder posts. 5. [Tinymce Advanced](https://wordpress.org/plugins/tinymce-advanced) (activated -> MU\* plugin) - WYSIWYG enahancement. 6. [Advanced Custom Fields PRO](https://wordpress.org/plugins/advanced-custom-fields-pro) (activated -> must use) - Most important plugin. 7. [Wordfence](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wordfence) (not activated) - This is not mandatory plugin, but recommended. Security. 8. [WP Mail SMTP](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-mail-smtp) (not activated) - This is not mandatory plugin, but recommended, `wpmail()` is not reliable. Company policy is to use Mailgun. \**MU - Must Use Plugin* ### Installing new plugins [](#installing-new-plugins) Installing new plugins are usually disabled on production due to security reasons, therefore use composer: 1. Find the plugin at [WPackagist](https://wpackagist.org/) 2. Install the plugin `composer require wpackagist-plugin/akismet` Testing & Coding style -------------------------- [](#testing--coding-style) The PHPCS has been removed due to the fact this is just a scaffold for WP Headless projects that should use WP plugins only without any theme. If additional functionality is needed, follow the [Circul8 Coding Standards here](https://github.com/circul8/coding-standards). Local development ----------------- [](#local-development) In order to develop this project package locally, you need to: 1. Clone this repo 2. Do your changes in the clone 3. Commit changes (do not push) 4. Create `packages.json` somewhere (see bellow) 5. Run the `create-project` with specified `packages.json` (see bellow) ### `create-project` [](#create-project) ``` $ composer clearcache && export ACF_PRO_KEY="123==" && composer create-project --repository-url={YOURPATH}/packages.json circul8/wordpress:dev-master ``` Don't forget to change the *{YOURPATH}* to your `packages.json`. ### `packages.json` [](#packagesjson) ``` { "package": { "name": "circul8/wordpress", "version": "1.0.0", "source": { "url": "{YOURPATH}wordpress/.git", "type": "git", "reference": "{YOURBRANCH}" } } } ``` Again, don't forget to change the *{YOURPATH}*. This time it must lead to the cloned repository of the `circul8/wordpress`. You also need to change the *{YOURBRANCH}* to your testing branch. #### Reference [](#reference) - Documentation / Reference ------------------------- [](#documentation--reference) - [Bedrock](https://roots.io/bedrock/docs/) - [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/) - [WPackagist](https://wpackagist.org/) --- Change log ---------- [](#change-log) - v2.0.0 (2020-01-28) - Upgraded to latest Bedrock. - Removed starter theme -> ongoing projects should be headless. - Removed Timber plugin -> ongoing projects should be headless. - Upgraded to the Wordpress 5.3 - All plugins updated. - v1.0.0 (2019-03-14) - Versioning started.
