WordPress Plugin Boilerplate

The WordPress Plugin Boilerplate serves as a foundation off of which to build your WordPress plugins.

Features

  • The Plugin Boilerplate is fully-based on the WordPress Plugin API
  • Uses PHPDoc conventions for easily following the code
  • Liberal use of TODO to guide you through what you need to change
  • Uses a strict file organization scheme to make sure the assets are easily maintainable

Usage

The WordPress Plugin Boilerplate is ready to activate as-is (though it includes no real functionality).

  1. Copy the plugin-boilerplate directory into your wp-content/plugins directory
  2. Navigate to the "Plugins" dashboard page
  3. Locate the menu item that reads "TODO"
  4. Click on "Activate"

This will activate the WordPress Plugin Boilerplate. Because the Boilerplate has no real functionality, nothing will be added to WordPress; however, this demonstrates exactly how your plugin should behave as you're working with it.
