Getting started

Coding Guidelines and Development 🛠

  • Ensure you stick to the WordPress Coding Standards
  • Run our build process described in the document on How to setup the plugin development environment, it will install everything needed to do development on our plugin.
  • Whenever possible please fix pre-existing code standards errors in the files that you change. It is ok to skip that for larger files or complex fixes.
  • Ensure you use LF line endings in your code editor. Use EditorConfig if your editor supports it so that indentation, line endings and other settings are auto configured.
  • When committing, reference your issue number (#1234) and include a note about the fix.
  • Ensure that your code supports the minimum supported versions of PHP and WordPress; this is shown at the top of the readme.txt file.
  • Push the changes to your fork and submit a pull request on the dev branch of the plugin repository.
  • Make sure to write good and detailed commit messages (see this post for more on this) and follow all the applicable sections of the pull request template.
  • Please avoid modifying the changelog directly or updating the .pot files. These will be updated by the plugin team.
