NOTE: This is a fork of the awesome wordpress-on-heroku project template, which helps you upload a Wordpress application to Herkou. This is only a project template - it is not enough to upload a working Wordpress application to Heroku. The project template uses the heroku-buildpack-wordpress buildpack to successfully configure and deploy a Wordpress application to Heroku. You can follow the instructions of how to make use of this project template from the original author's github page.

The best way to use this project template is to fork it, modify it to your specifications, and then upload it to your Heroku instance (which is how this fork is using it). This fork is used for my own personal blog.

The rest of the README below is exactly as how it appears in the original wordpress-on-heroku project template.

Wordpress on Heroku

This is where changes to your Wordpress site are made. Changes committed to this directory will overwrite all the vendor defaults.

Generally, you'll be interested in adding plugins, adding themes, and modifying wordpress.conf.erb.

└── config                # Config files
    ├── public            # Public directory
    │   └── wp-content    # Themes & plugins
    │       ├── plugins
    │       └── themes
    └── vendor            # Config files for vendored apps
        ├── nginx
        │   └── conf      # nginx.conf + wordpress.conf.erb
        └── php           # php.ini
            └── etc       # php-fpm.conf
