WordPress skeleton

The codebase of a VIP Platform WordPress environment includes WordPress Core, VIP MU plugins, and the custom code committed to an application’s wpcomvip GitHub code repository. The GitHub repository for a WordPress application is based on the vip-go-skeleton.

Only the directories (and their contents) and files listed below are deployed to environments. Any other directories or files that are added to the root of an application’s GitHub repository will not deploy as expected.

Directories provided in an application’s repository that are required:

• /client-mu-plugins
• /images
• /languages
• /plugins
• /private
• /themes
• /vip-config

Directories and files in an application’s repository that can be optionally removed:

• /docs
• .editorconfig
• .phpcs.xml.dist
• composer.lock
• composer.json
