WordPress Development Skill

Stack

• WordPress Multisite — primary setup for all faithmade sites
• Beaver Builder — page builder (see beaver-builder skill)
• Kirki Framework — Customizer controls
• Meta Box AIO — custom fields
• FluentForm — forms
• WP All Import Pro — data import
• Redis — object cache
• Twig (via Toolbox plugin) — templating via shortcodes

Key WP-CLI Commands

wp plugin list
wp theme list
wp post list --post_type=sermon
wp cache flush
wp rewrite flush
wp cron event run --due-now
wp search-replace 'old.domain.com' 'new.domain.com' --all-tables
wp db export backup.sql
wp media regenerate
wp user list

For multisite:

wp site list
wp --url=sub.domain.com plugin list
wp super-admin list

Common Debugging

• Enable WP_DEBUG and WP_DEBUG_LOG in wp-config.php
• Check /wp-content/debug.log
• Use error_log(print_r($var, true)) for quick dumps
• Redis issues: wp cache flush or restart Redis container

File Structure (faithmade-wp)

wp-content/
  themes/
    page-builder-framework-child/   # Child theme
      assets/
        styles/   # SCSS source
        scripts/  # JS source
      functions.php
  plugins/
    faithmade-*/   # 9 custom plugins
    toolbox/       # Twig integration

Hooks Pattern

add_action('init', function() { ... });
add_filter('the_content', function($content) { return $content; });

Multisite Notes

• Main site URL is the network root
• Sub-sites share plugins but can activate independently
• switch_to_blog($blog_id) / restore_current_blog() for cross-site queries
• Network-activated plugins apply to all sites
