Composer WordPress Skeleton

This is simply a skeleton repo for a WordPress site, forked from ADARTA and modified to my needs. Read the original README and use with caution.

Short guide:

1. Clone this git into htdocs:
   git clone [email protected]:moritzjacobs/Composer-Wordpress-Skeleton.git my-server-root
2. Edit wp-config-local-sample.php and enter valid db credentials, then rename to wp-config-local.php
3. Change the Wordpress table prefix in wp-config.php (line 52)
4. composer install
5. Surf to http://mycrazyhostname.dev/admin
6. Follow install process
7. Update Wordpress via the Dashboard (why you need to do this, I have no idea...)

Differences to ADARTA's version:

• Removed roots
• Renamed wp-content/ to site/ and wp/ to core/
• Removed web.config
• wp-config-*.php support with auto-switching by host name (local | staging | live)
• Plugin activation is handled by mu-plugins/plugin-bootstrap.php; Plugins are inactive if their root folder/file name starts with an underscore
• Read .gitignore to get an idea about what we're trying to accomplish with git and composer here
