• primary functions are stored in functions.php
• secondary/plug-in functions are stored in /includes
• recurring UI elements are stored as unique php files in /modules
• css is broken down into separate files that correspond to php files
• php files named by wp page/template type or module/element type with -- modifiers
• ACF organized into groups by corresponding post type, page template, or global group, with post type or page template name as prefix

• we use { } for continguous php and :/else:/endif; for PHP broken up by html
• https://make.wordpress.org/core/handbook/best-practices/coding-standards/php/
• in-line php lines up with previous html element (if statements)
• line-breaks between php and in-line html

This project follows a structured Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) process, utilizing four primary environments to ensure seamless development, testing, and production deployment.

1. Feature:

   • Used for developing and testing new features in isolated branches.
   • Feature branches should be regularly pushed to GitHub for visibility and collaboration.

2. Main:

   • Serves as the integration branch where feature branches are merged.
   • Ensures that features are tested and stable before further deployment.

3. Staging:

   • URL: staging.wikitongues.org
   • A live testing environment where integrated features from main are deployed.
   • Used for end-to-end testing in a production-like setting before going live.

4. Production:

   • URL: wikitongues.org
   • The public-facing environment where fully tested and approved features are deployed.
   • Direct pushes to production are prohibited to maintain stability.

1. Feature Development:

   • Begin by branching off from main to develop new features.
   • Regularly push updates to the feature branch on GitHub for peer review and testing.

2. Integration:

   • Once a feature is ready, submit a pull request to merge the feature branch into main.
   • Resolve any conflicts, run tests, and ensure the integration is smooth.

3. Staging Deployment:

   • After merging into main, create a pull request to merge main into staging.
   • Automatic deployment to the Staging environment allows for live testing.
   • Conduct thorough testing and verification in the Staging environment.

4. Production Deployment:

   • Following successful testing in Staging, create a pull request to merge staging into production.
   • The merge triggers an automatic deployment to the Production environment.
   • Monitor the deployment to ensure stability and functionality.

• Deployment Branches:

  • staging: Automatically deploys to the Staging environment upon merge.
  • production: Automatically deploys to the Production environment upon merge.

• Branch Protection:

  • The main and production branches are protected and can only be modified via pull requests from other branches.
  • This ensures that all changes are reviewed, tested, and approved before affecting live environments.

This project uses Stylus, a CSS pre-processor. Stylus needs to be compiled into CSS before it is usable in HTML. To run the compiler, run stylus -w stylus in the terminal.

Typeahead Search This project uses a React search component maintained in a separate repository. To update the component in this wordpress project, you'll have to update the /build/ directory from the component into the plugin directory here. This applies separately for integration, staging and production environments. Consider using rsync to facilitate the distribution. Additionally, the plugin has a PHP file that is not currently tracked on Git due to this repository being only a subset of the full installation. We may want to change this later.
