Contributing / development

Contributions are very much welcome! Please don't be intimidated to file an issue, create a Pull Request or email me (Leon) me@ljs.dev.

Developing

• git clone git@github.com:WP2Static/static-html-output.git
• cd static-html-output
• composer install
• composer test
• composer coverage (optional coverage generation, requires Xdebug)

Building an install .zip file

• composer build INSTALLER_FILENAME

This will create the installer and place in your $HOME/Downloads directory.

On Windows, you will need the zip utility available to build an installer. I recommend using Git Bash shell and then manually installing the zip utility as per these instructions

Localisation / translations

Localisation within the plugin isn't supported. Rather, it's recommended to use a browser extension if you need help translating the UI or you can run our documentation pages through any translation service.

Support

Please raise an issue here on GitHub or on the plugin's support forum.
