Custom theme for POP website built for the Timber framework.
Install this theme as you would any other, and be sure the Timber plugin is activated:
- Make sure you have installed the plugin for the Timber Library (and Advanced Custom Fields - they play quite nicely together).
- Download the zip for this theme (or clone it) and move it to
wp-content/themesin your WordPress installation. - Rename the folder to something that makes sense for your website (generally no spaces and all lowercase). You could keep the name
timber-starter-themebut the point of a starter theme is to make it your own! - Activate the theme in Appearance > Themes.
- Do your thing! And read the docs.
static/ is where you can keep your static front-end scripts, styles, or images. In other words, your Sass files, JS files, fonts, and SVGs would live here.
templates/ contains all of your Twig templates. These pretty much correspond 1 to 1 with the PHP files that respond to the WordPress template hierarchy. At the end of each PHP template, you'll notice a Timber::render() function whose first parameter is the Twig file where that data (or $context) will be used. Just an FYI.
bin/ and tests/ ... basically don't worry about (or remove) these unless you know what they are and want to.
- This branch of the starter theme has some more example code with ACF and a slightly different set up.
