Usage Requirements

• Download the lastest release from Github.

Recommended / Required Additional Plugins

This plugin contains blocks that are constructed with the use of Advanced Custom Fields Pro.

• The ACF Pro plugin is also required by the Pitchfork theme.
• The Pitchfork theme contains a script which will prompt the user to install this plugin upon theme activation.
• ASU Engineering provides a licensed copy of this plugin within its standard distribution of WordPress.

Plugin updates can applied from the admin dashboard through the use of WP Pusher or Git Updater.

Includes

• This plugin conditionally loads the app-webdir-ui package from the Unity project as needed.
• All other styles are expected to be provided by the WordPress theme in use. (Which in turn would ideally load a copy of the unity-bootstrap-theme also found within the ASU package library).

Development

• SASS and JS compile & watch tasks are triggered via Gulp WP and npx gulp-wp from the project root.
