WordPress managed by composer with highly customized paths (bye wp-content!)
Base configuration for install and deploy WordPress sites using composer, (*1)
The structure for your WordPress instalation will be:, (*2)
/.env -> edit in this file the most common config constants
/vendor -> You shouldn't touch anything here, 3rd party libraries
/public
/public/cms -> the WordPress installation dir (managed by composer)
/public/index.php -> custom WordPress bootstrap file
/public/media -> the WordPress directory to store uploads
/public/extensions -> WordPress plugins, managed by composer
/public/must -> WordPress must-use plugins
/public/themes -> themes directory
/app/config/environments/{development,production,...}.php extra configuration
It uses WordPress Packagist in order to manage your plugins, themes and other php dependencies, (*3)
Requirements: * PHP7.1 or greater, (*4)
Create your project:, (*5)
composer create-project jefrancomix/composer-wordpress your_directory_name "dev-master"
Set the WordPress permissions:, (*6)
# Configure the wp-content/uploads permissions # https://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_File_Permissions chmod -R 775 public/media
Copy .env.example to .env and customize your parameters, (*7)
By default a file in app/config/environments/development.php is customizable,
if you need to customize extra vars, you can create other files in that dir,
and load its settings by changing the WP_ENV var in your custom .env file., (*8)
If the rewrite rules does not seem to work, maybe Rewrite module is not enabled, you could debug this adding this line to Apache configuration:, (*9)
# /etc/apache/apache2.conf in debian/ubuntu systems LogLevel alert rewrite:trace6
Then restart Apache service, if the log file shows:, (*10)
Cannot find module rewrite
You must enable it in order to get permalinks working:, (*11)
# a2enmod rewrite # service apache2 restart
This is not specific to this structure, is valid for any WordPress installation running on Apache2., (*12)
Inspired by simmetric/wordpress-composer-installation and bedrock/roots with some magic of composer installer script (mostly rewrite and copy files), (*13)
