WordPress Composer

Project template for WordPress application stack with Composer.

Usage

• First you need to install Composer.
• Create new project in current directory composer create-project nhutdm/wordpress-composer ..

Default paths

By default, WordPress core will be installed in ./web directory. Plugins and themes are installed in ./web/wp-content/plugins and ./web/wp-content/themes.

Manage custom themes and plugins under version control

• Exclude path to your plugin or theme from .gitignore. Example for theme under web/wp-content/themes/my-custom-theme/:

  !web/
  web/*
  !web/wp-content/
  web/wp-content/*
  !web/wp-content/themes/
  web/wp-content/themes/*
  !web/wp-content/themes/my-custom-theme/
  

• Add the same path to your composer.json under extra > preserve-paths:

  "preserve-paths": [
      "web/wp-content/themes/custom"
  ]
  

• Add your plugin/theme directory under version control.
