Aucor core

The plugin contains the features and settings generally deemed to be the most commonly used in all projects. It is meant to be used together with aucor-starter but functions on its own as well. Use the site specific plugin to configure the specs of this plugin.

Helper functions

Directory: root

Contains functions, like enhanced (internal) debugging, for all features/subfeatures to use

Configuration (optional)

“Active” subfeatures

• The style guide subfeature overrides the WP function the_content() with default markup for testing the most common tag styles, when the GET parameter ‘?ac-debug=styleguide’ is found in the url. You can however replace this markup with a filter:

  add_filter(‘aucor_core_custom_markup’, function($content) {
  $content = ‘custom markup’;
  return $content;
  });

• The wireframe subfeature adds outlines to all elements on page to help with visual debugging, when the GET parameter ‘?ac-debug=wireframe’ is found in the url. It also appends ‘?ac-debug=wireframe’ to the href value in all anchor tags on the page to keep the feature enabled during navigation.

Disable feature/subfeature

By default all the features/subfeatures are on, but you can disable the ones you don’t want with filters. This need to be done in a separate plugin, however, because the hooks that the features latch onto are executed earlier than the theme setup, so filters in e.g. functions.php won’t have any effect. Here is a minimal code snippet you can use to disable features:

<?php /** * Plugin Name: YOUR PLUGIN NAME */ // disable a feature in Aucor Core add_filter('feature or subfeature key', '__return_false'); 

Put this snippet in a file called plugin.php, in a directory named [YOUR PLUGIN NAME], and place the directory under the /plugins/ directory with your other plugins.

Note that if you disable a feature, all underlying subfeatures will be disabled as well.
