Theme installation

Bottom line is you want to get the files in this repo into your local development environment. There are many ways to do this, two of which we will cover here.

via Command-line

If you're already using Composer to manage WordPress, then you might consider using composer's create-project command to download Sage.

The example below assumes you're using Bedrock. If you're not, simply change the target path accordingly.

composer create-project roots/sage web/app/themes/your-theme-name-here

Then activate the theme via wp-cli.

wp theme activate your-theme-name-here

via WordPress Admin Panel

Download the latest release of Sage.
In your WordPress admin panel, navigate to Appearance->Themes
Click Add New
Click Upload Theme
Upload the zip file that you downloaded.

Theme setup

Edit lib/setup.php to enable or disable theme features, setup navigation menus, post thumbnail sizes, post formats, and sidebars.

Theme development

Sage uses gulp as its build system and Bower to manage front-end packages.

Install gulp and Bower

Building the theme requires node.js. We recommend you update to the latest version of npm: npm install -g npm@latest.

From the command line:

Install gulp and Bower globally with npm install -g gulp bower
Navigate to the theme directory, then run npm install
Run bower install

You now have all the necessary dependencies to run the build process.

Available gulp commands

gulp — Compile and optimize the files in your assets directory
gulp watch — Compile assets when file changes are made
gulp --production — Compile assets for production (no source maps).

Using BrowserSync

To use BrowserSync during gulp watch you need to update devUrl at the bottom of assets/manifest.json to reflect your local development hostname.

For example, if your local development URL is http://project-name.dev you would update the file to read:

...
  "config": {
    "devUrl": "http://project-name.dev"
  }
...

If your local development URL looks like http://localhost:8888/project-name/ you would update the file to read:

...
  "config": {
    "devUrl": "http://localhost:8888/project-name/"
  }
...
