Getting Started with Redux

ReduxFramework has been built from the ground up to be the most flexible framework around. You can run it as an auto-updating plugin, or embed it inside your plugin or theme. It allows for multiple copies of itself within the same WordPress instance. For a guide on getting started please refer to https://github.com/ReduxFramework/redux-framework/wiki/Getting-Started.

You can also download our sample theme available here to start developing right away.

Please Post Reviews and Spread the Word

ReduxFramework has just released to the WordPress Plugins directory. Please spread the word, tweet, and (most importantly) post reviews on http://wordpress.org/plugins/redux-framework/.

FAQs

Why should we use require_once instead of get_template_part?

First, because get_template_part is for... you guessed it, themes! Redux is designed to work with both themes and plugins.
Second, read this.

Why shouldn't we edit sample-config.php in the plugin directory?

Because sample-config.php will be replaced at each update of the plugin. You will lose all your effort

Running PHP Unit tests

The tests are built using wordpress's make subversion repository

/var/www/wordpress-develop as the destination for the core test files. First download the wordress core tests repository, for these files.

cd /var/www
svn co http://develop.svn.wordpress.org/trunk/ wordpress-develop

In the newly created /var/www/wordpress-develop directory rename wp-tests-config-sample.php to wp-tests-config.php. Now add your database details to the new file:

// WARNING WARNING WARNING!
// These tests will DROP ALL TABLES in the database with the prefix named below.
// DO NOT use a production database or one that is shared with something else.

define( 'DB_NAME', 'wordpress-tests' );
define( 'DB_USER', 'root' );
define( 'DB_PASSWORD', 'passowrd' );
define( 'DB_HOST', 'localhost' );
define( 'DB_CHARSET', 'utf8' );
define( 'DB_COLLATE', '' );

n.b. you may need to create the database first.
n.b. n.b. also note that the database used will be emptied on each run.

Set the WP_TESTS_DIR environment variable so that the redux-framework test bootstrap file can find the wordpress core tests:

export WP_TESTS_DIR='/var/www/wordpress-develop/tests/phpunit/includes/'

You should now be able to run the redux-framework unit tests:

redux-framework$ phpunit
