Theme Deployment

Canonical Workflow​

1. Edit local child theme
2. Validate PHP syntax: php -l functions.php
3. Check whitespace: git diff --check
4. Deploy to production: ./deploy.sh
5. Clear PHP OPcache: wp flush-opcache flush
6. Purge LiteSpeed cache: wp litespeed-purge all
7. Purge Cloudflare cache
8. Verify origin response
9. Commit and push intended files

Deployment Script​

Run from the local theme checkout:

cd /home/rezriz/github/Wordpress/wp-dev/themes/develop-internally/id86/gppersonale-child-theme
./deploy.sh

The script uses rsync over SSH to synchronize the local theme directory to the production gppersonale directory on GC-US-M10 at /home/Dmg59ZFtKg6bIws1/id86net/public_html/wp-content/themes/gppersonale/.

Origin Verification​

Cloudflare Access protects the public host. Verify the production origin from GC-US-M10:

curl -ksS --resolve id86.net:443:127.0.0.1 https://id86.net/

Use a cache-busting query parameter during visual or markup checks:

curl -ksS --resolve id86.net:443:127.0.0.1 "https://id86.net/?$(date +%s)"

Post-Deployment Checklist​

  • Homepage Hero, topic grid, and latest-reference grid render.
  • Hero and header Fuse.js search surfaces work.
  • Subscribe bar renders before the visible footer.
  • Theme stylesheet has a fresh cache-busting URL (style.css?ver=...).
  • No PHP syntax errors or unexpected origin errors in logs.
  • Cache invalidation confirmed via origin curl response.
