The theme is built using the Wordpress best practices: - its takes advantage of the customizer panel of the Wordpress' backend to let user choose the best rendering with a lot of options concerning styles, templates and layouts; - it supports all [theme features](https://codex.wordpress.org/Theme_Features) such as *post formats*, *header* and *background* customization, *thumbnails*, *HTML5 markup*, *sidebars*, *navigation menus* and *sticky posts*; - it implements its templates to follow the [template hierarchy](https://developer.wordpress.org/themes/basics/template-hierarchy/)of Wordpress; - it uses internal *hooks* to plug its rendering options; - it implements its own *hooks* to easily customize its features; - it is ready for translations; - its code follows the [Wordpress](http://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Coding_Standards)and [PSR](http://www.php-fig.org/) coding standards. The theme can be used out of the box for a personal blog, but can also be a **robust and well-coded**basis to build your own themes (see the license section of this file to learn about commercial usage).

Installation as a basis to build your own theme ----------------------------------------------- [](#installation-as-a-basis-to-build-your-own-theme) If you want to use this theme as a basis to modify, you may register the original repository URL as a GIT remote. In the example below, let's say your own theme is hosted at `http://github.com/user/my-theme`: ``` mkdir my-theme && cd $_ git init . git remote add origin https://github.com/user/my-theme.git git remote add upstream https://github.com/e-picas/wp-basic-bootstrap.git ``` This way, you will be able to make your commits to your own theme and push them to your own repository: ``` touch readme.txt git add readme.txt git commit -m "this is a fake commit" git push --set-upstream origin master ``` And you will be able to update your basis with its last commits (eventually): ``` git fetch upstream git merge --no-ff --no-commit upstream/master git status git commit ``` Usage ----- [](#usage) Various documentations are available (as plain text Markdown files) in the directory of this repository.
