WordPress Composer

Install WordPress with custom paths using Composer.

Description

This repository is a base to install WordPress with Composer. You can customize the installation the way you want but make sure to update all the paths/names.

Requirements

• Composer

Usage

1. Download the your-wordpress-website folder (you can clone and remove everything except this folder).

2. (Optional) rename htdocs to match the public folder of your host. For example, with Gandi, it's htdocs. Other hosts can use www. If you rename htdocs, you will need to update the composer.json file to suit your needs.

3. (Optional) rename wp and wp-content. Again, you will need to update some paths in this case.

4. Then, go inside the htdocs directory to copy and rename wp-config-sample.php to wp-config.php.

5. Inside the file, replace:

• the path to Composer autoload if different
• the database info ("database_name_here", "username_here", "password_here", "localhost")
• all the "Authentication Unique Keys and Salts"
• "wp_" table prefix (if needed)
• "WP_SITEURL" value with your URL to core directory (/wp/ by default)
• "WP_HOME" value with your URL
• uncomment "FORCE_SSL_ADMIN" (if needed)

6. Open a terminal, then:

composer install
