Catalyst WP Boilerplate

Boilerplate designed to get you up and running with Catalyst WP in a few short minutes.

Note: The best way to utilize this package is via the Catalyst WP CLI as it will automatically generate necessary configuration files.

Getting Started

Make sure you have Composer installed
Clone this repo and cd into it via terminal
Run composer install
Add database credentials and nonces to wp-config.php (see gotchas below)
Duplicate the Atom theme and name the copied directory atom-child
Update the child theme's style.css header so that Theme Name: is Atom Child and add a field for Template: atom
Profit

For more details on working with the Catalyst WP Toolbox see documentation for the Atom Theme

Catalyst WP CLI will generate a wp-config.php file for you. If you're not using the CLI you will need to manually create one in the project root - do not put in the /wp directory. You will also need to add the following lines to the file:
- Autoload Composer dependencies
```
require __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';
```
- Load dependencies from the /wp and /wp-content directories
```
define('WP_CONTENT_DIR', dirname( __FILE__ ) . '/wp-content');
define('WP_CONTENT_URL', 'http://' . $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] . '/wp-content');
define('WP_SITEURL', 'http://' . $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] . '/wp');
define('WP_HOME', 'http://' . $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME']);
```
Certain out of the box wordpress hosts may not let you have control over the index.php file which is required to load the composer version of wordpress. As long as you are using WP v4+ you should be fine
Some hosts may also not allow you to modify wp-config.php if this is the case you need to find somewhere you can add the composer autoload script. Or find a new host.

Note: Please submit any issues you are having to the Atom Theme
