Blades

WordPress theme for Upstatement.com

---

Getting started with Development

Requires WPCLI, try brew install wp-cli brew requires homebrew to be installed and assumes OSX http://brew.sh/ if you have brew installed, but it's not working, run brew doctor

1. Create a directory for your work & download WordPress

mkdir [wherever you'd like]/wordpress-blades
cd [whereever]/wordpress-blades
wp core download

2. Install WordPress and connect to the database

wp core config --dbuser=[your db user] --dbpass=[yourpw] --dbname=[your db name]
wp core install

if using MAMP, include a flag for dbhost that looks like this: --dbhost=localhost:/Applications/MAMP/tmp/mysql/mysql.sock

3. Fetch & import the database

1. get a copy of the database dump you'd like to use (we store lots of these on Dropbox, ask Jared where)
2. import the database

• with this one-liner: mysql -u root -phopic0ji wp_blades < [your file here].sql
• OR with a phpmyadmin import via your MAMP install
• OR via Sequel Pro, import
