## 🚀 Contributing
|
||||
|
||||
We welcome contributions to WP Multisite WaaS! Here's how you can contribute effectively:
|
||||
|
||||
### Development Workflow
|
||||
|
||||
1. Fork the repository
|
||||
2. Create your feature branch (`git checkout -b feature/amazing-feature`)
|
||||
3. Run `npm install` and `composer install` to set up dependencies
|
||||
4. Make your changes
|
||||
5. Before committing, run `npm run build` to:
|
||||
- Generate translation POT files
|
||||
- Minify CSS and JS assets
|
||||
- Process and optimize other assets
|
||||
6. Commit your changes (`git commit -m 'Add some amazing feature'`)
|
||||
7. Push to the branch (`git push origin feature/amazing-feature`)
|
||||
8. Open a Pull Request
|
||||
|
||||
### Pull Request Guidelines
|
||||
|
||||
When submitting pull requests, please:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Include a clear description of the changes and their purpose
|
||||
2. Reference any related issues using GitHub's issue linking syntax (#123)
|
||||
3. Ensure your code follows the existing style and conventions
|
||||
4. Include screenshots or GIFs for UI changes if applicable
|
||||
5. Make sure all tests pass (if available)
|
||||
6. Update documentation as needed
|
||||
|
||||
### Release Process
|
||||
|
||||
Releases are automated using GitHub Actions workflows that trigger when a version tag is pushed.
|
||||
|
||||
**Tagging Convention:** To trigger a new release build, push a tag following the semantic versioning format:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
git tag v2.3.5 # For example, for version 2.3.5
|
||||
git push origin v2.3.5
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The tag must begin with "v" followed by the version number (v*.*.*)
|
||||
|
||||
This will automatically:
|
||||
1. Build the plugin (run `npm run build`)
|
||||
2. Create a properly packaged ZIP file
|
||||
3. Create a GitHub release with the ZIP attached
|
||||
|
||||
When preparing for a release:
|
||||
1. Update the version number in the main plugin file and readme.txt
|
||||
2. Update the changelog in readme.txt
|
||||
3. Create and push the appropriate version tag
|
||||
