WordPress clean instalation through Composer

Plugins and themes are located outside the wp folder, so we can manage them separately: on one hand themes and plugins and on the other wordpress itself.

Structure

• public/

  • wp-content/     - It contains plugins and themes
  • wp/       - Our subdirectory install location for WordPress
  • .htaccess     - If necessary
  • index.php
  • wp-config.php

• vendor/

• .gitignore

• composer.json

• composer.lock

• local-config.php

• .gitignore

Starting our project

1. Create a folder: mkdir my_folder
   * Be sure you have Composer installed. If you don't have it globaly installed, you can donwload the composer.phar localy (curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php)

2. Create folder my_folder/public/

3. Create composer.json. Copy the file uploaded in txinparta/wordpresspj

4. Create .gitignore

5. Install WordPress: run composer install (or php composer.phar install)

6. Copy and move

	cp -R public/wp/{wp-content,index.php,wp-config-sample.php} public/
	mv public/wp-config-sample.php public/wp-config.php

7. Modify public/index.php:

	require( dirname( __FILE__ ) . '/wp-blog-header.php' );
	Replace by:
	require( dirname( __FILE__ ) . '/wp/wp-blog-header.php' );

8. Configure local-config.php.
   Fill out database data connection and keys (https://api.wordpress.org/secret-key/1.1/salt/).

9. Configure public/wp-config.php.
   In the same way as it is in this repository.
