# Starter Theme Development Instructions

The starter theme was created by **WebMan Design**. Please read the instructions below for theme development process.

## Additional scripts

This starter theme requires installation of these additional scripts:

- [**WebMan WordPress Theme Framework**](https://github.com/webmandesign/webman-theme-framework) – copy the `library` folder into the theme’s root folder.
- [**WordPress CSS starter**](https://github.com/webmandesign/wp-css-starter) – copy the `starter` SASS folder into the `assets/scss` folder.

## Replacements

When developing a new theme, you need to batch replace a predefined set of string variables. Each variable is enclosed in `{%= %}` brackets (i.e. `{%= variable_name %}`).

### Example replacements:

| Prefix variable | Value |
|---|---|
| `theme_name` | Theme Name |
| `theme_slug` | themeslug |
| `version_since` | 1.0.0 (http://semver.org/ recommended) |
| `version` | 1.0.0 (http://semver.org/ recommended) |
| `prefix_constant` | THEMESLUG |
| `prefix_var` | themeslug |
| `prefix_class` | Themeslug |
| `prefix_fn` | themeslug |
| `prefix_js` | themeslug |
| `prefix_hook_fn` | themeslug |
| `prefix_hook` | themeslug |
| `text_domain` | themeslug |

### Project replacements:

Developers, fill this section with the actual values used for replacements for future reference.

| Prefix variable | Value |
|---|---|
| `theme_name` | Reykjavik |
| `theme_slug` | reykjavik |
| `version_since` | 1.0.0 |
| `version` | 1.0.0 |
| `prefix_constant` | REYKJAVIK |
| `prefix_var` | reykjavik |
| `prefix_class` | Reykjavik |
| `prefix_fn` | reykjavik |
| `prefix_js` | reykjavik |
| `prefix_hook_fn` | reykjavik |
| `prefix_hook` | reykjavik |
| `text_domain` | reykjavik |

## Documentation

The theme documentation template can be found in `documentation` subfolder. Documentation uses the `theme_name`, `theme_slug`, `version_since` and `version` from above to be replaced.

## Upgrades

In case you upgrade the library (`library/*.*`) and/or other universal pluggable/external scripts, such as CSS starter (`assets/scss/starter`), you will need to batch replace certain string variables (see above).

Reference of what variables need to be replaced can be found in the scripts themselves.
