Description
WP Basic Bootstrap is a full "101" Wordpress theme built with the Bootstrap framework and the Font Awesome images font, which implements all features of Wordpress version 4+ and is ready to build a responsive and accessible blog or to be modified to build your own theme.
The theme is built using the Wordpress best practices:
- its takes advantage of the customizer panel of the Wordpress' backend to let user choose the best rendering with a lot of options concerning styles, templates and layouts;
- it supports all theme features such as post formats, header and background customization, thumbnails, HTML5 markup, sidebars, navigation menus and sticky posts;
- it implements its templates to follow the template hierarchy of Wordpress;
- it uses internal hooks to plug its rendering options;
- it implements its own hooks to easily customize its features;
- it is ready for translations;
- its code follows the Wordpress and PSR coding standards.
The theme can be used out of the box for a personal blog, but can also be a robust and well-coded basis to build your own themes (see the license section of this file to learn about commercial usage).
Installation as a theme
- In your admin panel, go to "Appearance > Themes" and click the "Add New" button.
- Type in "Basic Bootstrap" in the search form and press the "Enter" key on your keyboard.
- Click on the "Activate" button to use your new theme right away.
- Navigate to "Appearance > Customize" in your admin panel and customize to taste.
NOTE - For those who are Composer users, the package is registered
as picas/wp-basic-bootstrap
.
Installation with a child theme
To use this theme as a parent of a child theme, you can begin your child theme with the following style.css
file:
/*
Theme Name: My Child Theme
Template: wp-basic-bootstrap
*/
The parent theme (this original theme) must be installed.
Installation as a basis to build your own theme
If you want to use this theme as a basis to modify, you may register the original repository URL as a GIT remote.
In the example below, let's say your own theme is hosted at http://github.com/user/my-theme
:
mkdir my-theme && cd $_
git init .
git remote add origin https://github.com/user/my-theme.git
git remote add upstream https://github.com/e-picas/wp-basic-bootstrap.git
This way, you will be able to make your commits to your own theme and push them to your own repository:
touch readme.txt
git add readme.txt
git commit -m "this is a fake commit"
git push --set-upstream origin master
And you will be able to update your basis with its last commits (eventually):
git fetch upstream
git merge --no-ff --no-commit upstream/master
git status
git commit
