Housekeeping and updates

  • Most patterns are in the theme, but need polish
  • Over 40 contributors so far

Changes in the editor are needed for the default theme. Please check out the list of issues and PRs relevant to TT4 and see if you can help in any way.

Open Floor

@colorful-tones proposed adding clarification for contributors to add the new define( ‘WP_DEVELOPMENT_MODE’, ‘theme’ ); in their wp-config.php. Will open a PR for the theme’s README

Translations will happen later on because it is hard to keep updating patterns and then making sure the translations functions persist when copy/pasting blockBlock Block is the abstract term used to describe units of markup that, composed together, form the content or layout of a webpage using the WordPress editor. The idea combines concepts of what in the past may have achieved with shortcodes, custom HTML, and embed discovery into a single consistent API and user experience. markup from editor into files.

@maneshtimilsina pointed out that there are some issues with new lines, non-uniform spaces/tabs, which can be verified with linting. It exists in the repo. We’ll wait and do this as part of the overall cleanup later on.

@onemaggie is prioritizing getting patterns merged

It would be helpful for someone to do a walk-through of how to modify a pattern in the Site Editor, which could help onboard contributors (and be used in future default themes going forward).

Reminder: contributing to the theme is not just adding patterns or designing things, but documentation and triaging communication and GitHubGitHub GitHub is a website that offers online implementation of git repositories that can easily be shared, copied and modified by other developers. Public repositories are free to host, private repositories require a paid subscription. GitHub introduced the concept of the ‘pull request’ where code changes done in branches by contributors can be reviewed and discussed before being merged be the repository owner. https://github.com/ issues/PRs is invaluable work too.

Props to @colorful-tones for helping with creating this post.

@maneshtimilsina mentioned contributers get confused about using esc_html__ or esc_html_x_ functions in patterns for translations.

  • Resource to translation documentation: https://developer.wordpress.org/apis/internationalization/internationalization-functions/
  • Resource to esc_html__ documentation: https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/esc_html__/
  • Resource to esc_html_x documentation: https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/esc_html_x/
  • Discussion summary:
    • Patterns should be checked if they use the correct functions
    • Any sample text should be commented that this is sample text, using the esc_html_x function
    • Any strings that may need further explanation to be correctly translated also need comments
    • Check on previous default themes for similar strings to see how it was handled there

@maneshtimilsina mentioned that there’s confusion about the home.php file, which contains multiple patterns

  • The patterns should be extracted into smaller components, which then possibly make home.php not needed anymore.

@kafleg mentioned the backlog of open PRs regarding patterns in the repository.

  • These will be taken care of this week.

@poena asked about the status of pattern categories and pattern switching for 6.4, and if this will work with non synced patterns

  • It seems this has not yet been discussed, an issue needs to be created to start a discussion around this topic
