Preparing For The WordPress Plugin Boilerplate 2.6.0

October 28, 2013 / Tom / 0 Comments

The WordPress Plugin Boilerplate has been a bit of a pet project of mine a little over the past two years.

In that time, it’s grown from something that I was using to jumpstart my own plugin development efforts into a more mature boilerplate that provides a significant number of features specifically to help developers get started with best practices in developing WordPress plugins.

However, that maturity has happened not because I’m the one who has been constantly contributing to the project, but because it has received so many awesome pull requests and discussions from others.

And with my getting ready to release `2.6.0` of the Boilerplate, I’m looking for one final push!

Announcing The WordPress Plugin Boilerplate 2.0

May 8, 2013 / Tom / 0 Comments

Back in December 2011, I released an initial version of the WordPress Plugin Boilerplate. The purpose of the boilerplate was to provide an easy way to build WordPress plugins.

Specifically, the project featured:

File organization
Documented code
Implementation of the Plugin API
Action and Filter Reference

After the feedback that I received upon thisl release, I officially published version 1.0 to GitHub on November 29, 2012. After over a year of various contributions from others and other improvements, I’m proud to release the second version of the WordPress Plugin Boilerplate.

WordPress Boilerplates: Widget and Plugin Officially at 1.0

Earlier this month, I mentioned that I was looking to bring the WordPress Widget Boilerplate and the WordPress Plugin Boilerplate to 1.0. Throughout the month, I received a several pull requests most of which I merged into the projects.

I made a few changes that I’ll detail momentarily, but as of right now both WordPress Plugin Boilerplates are officially tagged as 1.0 and are available in their respective GitHub repositories.

WordPress Plugin Boilerplate: Aiming For 1.0

WordPress Plugin Boilerplate

Since I’ve been working on the WordPress Plugin Boilerplate, I’ve never really done a good job of handling versioning for it. Instead, I’ve closed tickets as they’ve shown up and I’ve resolved issues as I – or others – have encountered them.

Next month, I’m hoping to officially tag it and the WordPress Widget Boilerplate as version 1.0, but I’m hoping to get a few more eyes on the code prior to doing so.

This weekend, I spent some time closing tickets, refactoring some code, and improving a few aspects of the code to improve its overall standard.

Here’s a run down of everything that’s been updated since the I initially launched the boilerplate:
