# HomeProz WordPress Theme
|
||||
|
||||
## TOOLING: BEADS (Issue Tracking)
|
||||
Custom WordPress theme for HomeProz Real Estate (Albert Lea, MN). Dark/rust brand aesthetic with ACF-powered property listings.
|
||||
|
||||
Git-backed issue tracker for AI agents. Use `bd` for task management, NOT markdown TODOs or TodoWrite.
|
||||
## Development Rules
|
||||
|
||||
**Git policy**: `.beads/` directory IS committed. `issues.jsonl` is the source of truth (db rebuilds from it). Issue state travels with code.
|
||||
1. **No emojis** - nowhere in code, commits, docs, or conversation
|
||||
2. **Tailwind CSS + SCSS** - compiled via Vite
|
||||
3. **jQuery** - for all JS functionality
|
||||
4. **Co-locate files** - SCSS/JS live alongside PHP templates
|
||||
5. **Page-scoped styles** - wrap in `.Page_Class_Name { }`, early return in JS
|
||||
6. **Server-side render** - no client-side templating
|
||||
7. **No custom animations** - keep it static and fast
|
||||
8. **ASK before architectural decisions**
|
||||
|
||||
**Hooks installed**: SessionStart and PreCompact hooks auto-run `bd prime` to inject workflow context.
|
||||
|
||||
### Essential Commands
|
||||
|
||||
| Command | Purpose |
|
||||
|---------|---------|
|
||||
| `bd ready` | Show unblocked issues ready to work |
|
||||
| `bd create "title"` | Create new issue |
|
||||
| `bd show <id>` | View issue details |
|
||||
| `bd update <id> --status in_progress` | Claim/start work |
|
||||
| `bd close <id>` | Complete issue |
|
||||
| `bd sync` | Sync with git remote |
|
||||
| `bd list --status open` | List open issues |
|
||||
| `bd dep add <id> <blocks-id>` | Add dependency |
|
||||
|
||||
### Workflow
|
||||
|
||||
1. `bd ready` ^f^r find available work
|
||||
2. `bd update <id> --status in_progress` ^f^r claim it
|
||||
3. Work on the issue
|
||||
4. Discover new work? ^f^r `bd create "title" --deps discovered-from:<parent-id>`
|
||||
5. `bd close <id>` ^f^r mark complete
|
||||
6. `bd sync` ^f^r push changes
|
||||
|
||||
### Issue Types & Priorities
|
||||
|
||||
**Types**: `bug`, `feature`, `task`, `epic`, `chore`
|
||||
**Priorities**: `0` (critical) ^f^r `4` (backlog), default `2`
|
||||
|
||||
**End of session**: Create issues for discovered work, `bd sync`, verify clean git state.

# PROJECT: HomeProz WordPress Website Development
|
||||
|
||||
## Project Overview
|
||||
|
||||
**Client:** HomeProz Real Estate (Albert Lea, MN area)
|
||||
**Developer:** Hanson.xyz
|
||||
**Contract:** $6,000 development + $600/yr hosting
|

|
||||
|
||||
## Development Mandates
|
||||
|
||||
### Communication & Output
|
||||
|
||||
1. **No emojis** - Never use emojis in code, website output, commit messages, documentation, or conversation. This is a professional project.
|
||||
|
||||
### UI & Styling
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Use Tailwind CSS** as the UI framework
|
||||
2. **Use SCSS** for custom styles, compiled via Vite
|
||||
3. **Page-scoped SCSS**: Every page-specific SCSS file must be wrapped:
|
||||
```scss
|
||||
.The_Page_Name {
|
||||
// all rules for this page go here
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
4. **Page body classes**: Every page template must add a class to the `<body>` tag:
|
||||
```php
|
||||
<body class="Home_Page">
|
||||
<body class="Properties_Archive">
|
||||
<body class="Single_Property">
|
||||
<body class="About_Page">
|
||||
<body class="Contact_Page">
|
||||
<body class="Blog_Archive">
|
||||
<body class="Single_Post">
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### JavaScript
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Use jQuery** for all JS functionality
|
||||
2. **Page-scoped JS**: All page-specific JS must start with early return:
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
(function($) {
|
||||
if (!$('.The_Page_Name').length) return;
|
||||
|
||||
// page-specific code here
|
||||
})(jQuery);
|
||||
```
|
||||
3. **No inline scripts** - all JS in external files
|
||||
4. **No inline event handlers** - use jQuery event binding
|
||||
5. **Use Vite** to bundle JS/CSS
|
||||
|
||||
### File Organization
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Co-locate related files** - JS and SCSS files live alongside their related PHP templates, NOT in separate `/js/` or `/css/` directories
|
||||
2. Example structure:
|
||||
```
|
||||
template-parts/
|
||||
├── property/
|
||||
│ ├── property-card.php
|
||||
│ ├── property-card.scss
|
||||
│ └── property-card.js
|
||||
├── components/
|
||||
│ ├── hero-section.php
|
||||
│ ├── hero-section.scss
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Error Handling
|
||||
|
||||
1. **No empty catch blocks** - never write `try {} catch() { /* error occurred */ }`
|
||||
2. **Let errors surface** - only use try/catch when genuinely required for functionality
|
||||
3. **No fallback/legacy implementations** - assume modern browser, assume libraries exist
|
||||
4. Dual implementations create security holes and maintenance nightmares
|
||||
|
||||
### Rendering
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Server-side render everything** - no client-side template rendering
|
||||
2. **No preloaders/spinners** except:
|
||||
- AJAX lookups (property filtering, search)
|
||||
- Only show spinner on FIRST data load
|
||||
- Subsequent AJAX calls show stale data until new data arrives
|
||||
3. **Exception**: Search page will be AJAX-based and refined iteratively
|
||||
|
||||
### Animations
|
||||
|
||||
1. **No custom animations** - no hover effects, no transitions, no "slide up on scroll"
|
||||
2. **Exception**: Animations built into Tailwind/UI library are acceptable
|
||||
3. Keep it static and fast
|
||||
|
||||
### Version Control
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Git is for SNAPSHOTS** - not optimized for public/collaboration
|
||||
2. **Commit everything** - build artifacts (`dist/`, `node_modules/`), database dumps, and all generated files are committed. No `.gitignore` exclusions for build output.
|
||||
3. After every development phase:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
mysqldump -u [user] -p [database] > db-snapshot-phase-X.sql
|
||||
git add -A
|
||||
git commit -m "Phase X: [description]"
|
||||
```
|
||||
4. Database dumps committed alongside code
|
||||
|
||||
### Decision Making
|
||||
|
||||
1. **ASK before implementing** when facing architectural choices
|
||||
2. Examples of decisions requiring developer input:
|
||||
- CSS framework choice
|
||||
- Preprocessor choice
|
||||
- JS library choice
|
||||
- Plugin alternatives
|
||||
- Data structure approaches
|
||||
3. Get clarity, then proceed

|
||||
| CMS | WordPress 6.x |
|
||||
| PHP | 8.1+ |

## Tools Available
|
||||
|
||||
### WP-CLI
|
||||
|
||||
WP-CLI is installed at `/usr/local/bin/wp`. Use it for WordPress administration tasks:
|
||||
## Build
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Theme management
|
||||
wp theme list
|
||||
wp theme activate homeproz
|
||||
|
||||
# Plugin management
|
||||
wp plugin install <plugin-name> --activate
|
||||
wp plugin list
|
||||
|
||||
# Database operations
|
||||
wp db export backup.sql
|
||||
wp db import backup.sql
|
||||
|
||||
# Cache and transients
|
||||
wp cache flush
|
||||
wp transient delete --all
|
||||
|
||||
# User management
|
||||
wp user list
|
||||
wp user create username email@example.com --role=administrator
|
||||
|
||||
# Options
|
||||
wp option get siteurl
|
||||
wp option update blogname "HomeProz Real Estate"
|
||||
|
||||
# Rewrite rules
|
||||
wp rewrite flush
|
||||
|
||||
# Run with --allow-root since we're running as root
|
||||
# All commands should use: wp --allow-root <command>
|
||||
cd wp-content/themes/homeproz
|
||||
npm run build
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Note:** Always use `--allow-root` flag when running as root user.
|
||||
## Tools
|
||||
|
||||
### dev_commit.sh
|
||||
- **WP-CLI**: `wp --allow-root <command>`
|
||||
- **Dev commits**: `./dev_commit.sh "message"` (includes DB snapshot)
|
||||
|
||||
A helper script for development checkpoints. Located at `/var/www/html/dev_commit.sh`.
|
||||
## Theme Options
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Usage
|
||||
./dev_commit.sh "Step X.X: Description of what was done"
|
||||
|
||||
# What it does:
|
||||
# 1. Dumps database to db-snapshots/db-snapshot.sql (overwrites each time)
|
||||
# 2. Runs git add -A
|
||||
# 3. Commits with your message
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**MANDATE:** Use `./dev_commit.sh` after completing each step in the implementation plan. This ensures we have a database snapshot with every code commit.
|
||||
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
./dev_commit.sh "Step 1.3: Configure theme.json with brand colors"
|
||||
```

## Development Phases
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Foundation** - Theme scaffold, Vite setup, Tailwind config, header/footer
|
||||
2. **Property System** - CPT, ACF fields, archive, single, filters
|
||||
3. **Page Templates** - Homepage, About, Contact, Blog, 404, Search
|
||||
4. **Block Patterns** - Reusable Gutenberg patterns
|
||||
5. **Content & SEO** - Schema markup, meta tags, initial content
|
||||
6. **Performance & Security** - Caching, optimization, security hardening
|
||||
7. **Testing & Training** - QA, documentation, client training
|
||||
|
||||
Each phase ends with:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
mysqldump homeproz > db-snapshot-phase-X.sql
|
||||
git add -A
|
||||
git commit -m "Phase X complete: [description]"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Open Decisions (Resolve Before Starting)
|
||||
|
||||
1. ~~CSS Framework~~ → **Tailwind CSS** (confirmed)
|
||||
2. ~~JS Library~~ → **jQuery** (confirmed)
|
||||
3. ~~Preprocessor~~ → **SCSS** (confirmed)
|
||||
4. ~~Build tool~~ → **Vite** (confirmed)
|
||||
5. ~~Agents~~ → **Agent CPT** (implemented)
|
||||
6. Testimonials: Static content vs Testimonial CPT?
|
||||
7. Maps: Embed codes vs Google Maps API?
|
||||
8. Form notifications: Which email address(es)?
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
Access via `homeproz_get_option('key')`:
|
||||
- `phone`, `email`, `address`, `facebook`, `tiktok`
|
||||
|
||||
## Custom Post Types
|
||||
|
||||
### Property CPT (`property`)
|
||||
### Property (`/properties/`)
|
||||
- ACF: price, address, beds/baths/sqft, gallery, documents, listing_agent
|
||||
- Taxonomies: `property_status` (Active/Pending/Sold), `property_type`, `property_location`
|
||||
- Location dropdown only shows communities with active/pending properties
|
||||
|
||||
**URL Structure:** `/properties/` (archive), `/properties/{slug}/` (single)
|
||||
### Agent (`/agents/`)
|
||||
- ACF: phone, email, bio, gallery, social links, order, disabled toggle
|
||||
- Disabled agents: 404 on profile, office contact on property cards
|
||||
|
||||
**ACF Fields:**
|
||||
- **Basic Info:** `property_price`, `street_address`, `city`, `state`, `zip_code`, `mls_number`
|
||||
- **Details:** `bedrooms`, `bathrooms`, `square_feet`, `lot_size`, `year_built`, `garage`
|
||||
- **Content:** `short_description`, `property_features` (checkbox), `property_gallery` (gallery)
|
||||
- **Documents:** `property_documents` (repeater with file + label)
|
||||
- **External:** `external_listing_url` (URL to Zillow/MLS listing)
|
||||
- **Agent:** `listing_agent` (post_object → Agent CPT)
|
||||
## Key Helpers
|
||||
|
||||
**Taxonomies:**
|
||||
- `property_status`: Active, Pending, Sold, Coming Soon
|
||||
- `property_type`: Single Family, Townhouse, Condo, Land, Commercial, Multi-Family
|
||||
|
||||
### Agent CPT (`agent`)
|
||||
|
||||
**URL Structure:** `/agents/` (archive), `/agents/{slug}/` (single)
|
||||
|
||||
**ACF Fields:**
|
||||
- **Contact:** `agent_phone`, `agent_email`, `agent_website`, `agent_title`, `agent_license`
|
||||
- **Bio:** `agent_short_bio` (textarea, max 300 chars)
|
||||
- **Gallery:** `agent_gallery` (gallery for additional photos; featured image is primary headshot)
|
||||
- **Social:** `agent_social_links` (repeater: platform select + URL)
|
||||
- **Settings:** `agent_order` (number, default 10), `agent_disabled` (toggle)
|
||||
|
||||
**Disabled Agent Behavior:**
|
||||
- Does not appear on `/agents/` listing
|
||||
- Profile page returns 404
|
||||
- On property listings: shows name/photo but uses office phone, no profile link, "Contact Us" button instead of email

## Contact Page Property Inquiry
|
||||
|
||||
The contact page supports pre-filling the message textarea with a property inquiry.
|
||||
|
||||
**URL Format:** `/contact/?property=Property+Name+Here`
|
||||
|
||||
**Behavior:**
|
||||
- Extracts `property` GET parameter
|
||||
- Pre-fills message with: "I would like to get more information on property: {Property Name}"
|
||||
- Works with fallback form and Contact Form 7 (via JavaScript)
|
||||
|
||||
**Usage in templates:**
|
||||
```php
|
||||
$contact_url = add_query_arg('property', urlencode($property_title), home_url('/contact/'));
|
||||
```

## Notes
|
||||
|
||||
- Dark theme is unconventional for real estate but matches client brand
|
||||
- Property images use 16:10 aspect ratio (better for real estate than 16:9)
|
||||
- Agent listing page shows agents ordered by `agent_order` field, then alphabetically
|
||||
- Sold properties remain visible (social proof)
|
||||
- MLS numbers are display-only (no API integration)
|
||||
- Properties imported from homeprozrealestate.com with external listing URLs to Zillow
|
||||
`Home_Page`, `Properties_Archive`, `Single_Property`, `About_Page`, `Contact_Page`, `Blog_Archive`, `Single_Post`, `Agents_Archive`, `Single_Agent`, `Search_Page`, `Error_404`
