Case Study Wordpress Plugin by Pivotal

  • A case-study custom post type
  • A case-study-category taxonomy
  • Case Study fields added to the post type
  • Front-end templates (listing and single) to output the fields

Prerequisites

  • Wordpress
  • Advanced Custom Fields Pro installed and activated

The default front-end templates make use of Foundation - however you can override these in your theme if you need something different.

Installation

If you're using Bedrock:

git clone https://github.com/pvtl/wp-case-studies.git web/app/plugins/pvtl-case-studies
rm -rf web/app/plugins/pvtl-case-studies/.git
  • Activate the plugin
  • Update the project's .gitignore so that the plugin is included in the repo

Alternatively:

  • Download this repo as a zip
  • Upload the archive to your Wordpress plugin directory and activate the plugin

How do I...?

Modify the front-end layout?

By default, the plugin will use the templates found in <plugin_dir>/resouces/views/*.php.

You can easily override these templates, by creating the respective templates in your theme, naming them:

File Name Desc.
single-case-study.php The single post template (overrides single.php)
archive-case-study.php The listing template (overrides archive.php)

Add extra fields?

Are the extra field/s specific for this project?

  • Simply create a new ACF group and add the fields, targeted to this post type
  • You'll then need to override the front-end template/s to output the additional fields

Should these new field/s be default for all projects?

  • Import the /custom-fields/acf-export.json into ACF > Tools
  • Modify the fields
  • Export the JSON file + Generate the PHP (replacing the existing files)
  • Update the front-end templates to include the fields
  • Commit the changes back to the GIT repo
