FoundationPressNG

Gitter GitHub version License: MIT

English | Japanese

NG is New Generation. Thanks for olefredrik's FoundationPress.

This is a starter-theme for WordPress based on Zurb's Foundation for Sites 6, the most advanced responsive (mobile-first) framework in the world. The purpose of FoundationPressNG, is to act as a small and handy toolbox that contains the essentials needed to build any design. FoundationPressNG is meant to be a starting point, not the final product.

Please fork, copy, modify, delete, share or do whatever you like with this.

All contributions are welcome!

Requirements

This project requires Node.js v12.1.0 or higher is recommended. Please be aware that you might encounter problems with the installation if you are using the most current Node version (bleeding edge) with all the latest features.

FoundationPressNG uses Sass (CSS with superpowers). In short, Sass is a CSS pre-processor that allows you to write styles more effectively and tidy.

The Sass is compiled using libsass, which requires the GCC to be installed on your machine. Windows users can install it through MinGW, and Mac users can install it through the [Xcode Command-line Tools]$ xcode-select --install.

Quickstart

1. Clone the repository and install with npm

$ cd my-wordpress-folder/wp-content/themes/
$ git clone git@github.com:annrie/FoundationPressNG.git
$ cd FoundationPressNG
$ npm install

1-2. In the case of yarn 2

$ yarn set version berry
$ echo "nodeLinker: node-modules" > .yarnrc.yml
$ yarn install

2. Configuration

YAML config file

FoundationPress includes a config-default.yml file. To make changes to the configuration, make a copy of config-default.yml and name it config.yml and make changes to that file. The config.yml file is ignored by git so that each environment can use a different configuration with the same git repo.

At the start of the build process a check is done to see if a config.yml file exists. If config.yml exists, the configuration will be loaded from config.yml. If config.yml does not exist, config-default.yml will be used as a fallback.

Browsersync setup

If you want to take advantage of Browsersync (automatic browser refresh when a file is saved), simply open your config.yml file after creating it in the previous step, and put your local dev-server address and port (e.g http://localhost:8888) in the url property under the BROWSERSYNC object.

Static asset hashing / cache breaker

If you want to make sure your users see the latest changes after re-deploying your theme, you can enable static asset hashing. In your config.yml, set REVISIONING: true;. Hashing will work on the npm run build and npm run dev commands. It will not be applied on the start command with browsersync. This is by design. Hashing will only change if there are actual changes in the files.

3. Get started

$ npm start or  yarn start

4. Compile assets for production

When building for production, the CSS and JS will be minified. To minify the assets in your /dist folder, run

$ npm run build or  yarn build

To create a .zip file of your theme, run:

$ npm run package or  yarn pakcage

Running this command will build and minify the theme's assets and place a .zip archive of the theme in the packaged directory. This excludes the developer files/directories from your theme like /node_modules, /src, etc. to keep the theme lightweight for transferring the theme to a staging or production server.

Project structure

In the /src folder you will find the working files for all your assets. Every time you make a change to a file that is watched by Gulp, the output will be saved to the /dist folder. The contents of this folder is the compiled code that you should not touch (unless you have a good reason for it).

The /page-templates folder contains templates that can be selected in the Pages section of the WordPress admin panel. To create a new page-template, simply create a new file in this folder and make sure to give it a template name.

I guess the rest is quite self explanatory. Feel free to ask if you feel stuck.

Styles and Sass Compilation

  • style.css: Do not worry about this file. (For some reason) it's required by WordPress. All styling are handled in the Sass files described below

  • src/assets/scss/app.scss: Make imports for all your styles here

  • src/assets/scss/global/*.scss: Global settings

  • src/assets/scss/components/*.scss: Buttons etc.

  • src/assets/scss/modules/*.scss: Topbar, footer etc.

  • src/assets/scss/templates/*.scss: Page template styling

  • dist/assets/css/app.css: This file is loaded in the <head> section of your document, and contains the compiled styles for your project.

If you're new to Sass, please note that you need to have Gulp running in the background (npm start), for any changes in your scss files to be compiled to app.css.

JavaScript Compilation

All JavaScript files, including Foundation's modules, are imported through the src/assets/js/app.js file. The files are imported using module dependency with webpack as the module bundler.

If you're unfamiliar with modules and module bundling, check out this resource for node style require/exports and this resource to understand ES6 modules.

Foundation modules are loaded in the src/assets/js/app.js file. By default all components are loaded. You can also pick and choose which modules to include. Just follow the instructions in the file.

If you need to output additional JavaScript files separate from app.js, do the following:

  • Create new custom.js file in src/assets/js/. If you will be using jQuery, add import $ from 'jquery'; at the top of the file.
  • In config.yml, add src/assets/js/custom.js to PATHS.entries.
  • Build (npm start)
  • You will now have a custom.js file outputted to the dist/assets/js/ directory.
