Custom wordpress installer

Hi guys,

I would like to create a 'blueprint' wordpress installation with my custom themes and plugins installed. This would speed up my workflow because I don't have to install my default themes and plugins.

Thanks

Stijn

Stijn this is easy to achieve already with current features.

Create a server in an infrastructure provider that doesn’t charge for stopped servers (or better said just charges for disk usage, i.e. a t2.small on AWS).

Deploy whatever plugins, themes you need or usually use for your baseline deployments in this server.

Use this server as template. Clone this server to same or another infrastructure provider that you usually use. Stop the template server (minimal charges, just disc). Develop any project on the cloned server.

When you need to start another project, start the template server, clone again …

If you now use a new plugin on your base deployments. Start template, update it, clone and stop …

Hope it works.

    I'm currently updating the theme of my website, specifically focused on the Solo Leveling manga (https://manwha-sololeveling.com/). Could you recommend some high-quality themes that would be well-suited for a website centered around comics?

    Didn't thought about doing that, seams like a good approach. Thanks!
