Configuring Snippets in Your Theme

To utilize the PressGang Snippets in your WordPress theme, you need to configure them in your theme's config/snippets.php file. This file acts as a central place to manage which snippets are active in your theme and to pass any necessary arguments to them.

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Locate or Create snippets.php:

   • Find the snippets.php file in your theme’s root directory.
   • If it doesn't exist, create a new PHP file named snippets.php in the root of your theme.

2. Add Snippets to the Config File:

   • Open snippets.php in your code editor.
   • To activate a snippet, add it to the return array in snippets.php. Use the snippet's class name as the key, and an associative array of arguments as the value.

3. Example Configuration:

   • Here's an example of what your snippets.php might look like after adding a couple of snippets:

<?php
// snippets.php
return [
    'PressGang\\Snippets\\SomeSnippet' => ['arg1' => 'value1'],
    'PressGang\\Snippets\\AnotherSnippet' => ['arg2' => 'value2'],
    // Add more snippets here...
];
