Corex

First run & brand

1. Activate the theme and plugins

Section titled “1. Activate the theme and plugins”
Terminal window
wp theme activate corex --path=wp


wp plugin activate \
  corex-core corex-blocks corex-config corex-forms \
  corex-ui corex-email corex-captcha corex-newsletter \
  corex-careers corex-bookings corex-kit-company --path=wp

corex-core self-initializes on plugins_loaded; the others mount on it.

2. Build the front-end assets

Section titled “2. Build the front-end assets”

Blocks ship SCSS + JS that compile with @wordpress/scripts. Without a build, the editor reports “block not supported” (see Troubleshooting).

Terminal window
npm install
npm run build

3. Verify the blocks register

Section titled “3. Verify the blocks register”
Terminal window
wp eval 'foreach (WP_Block_Type_Registry::get_instance()->get_all_registered() as $n => $t) {
  if (strpos($n, "corex/") === 0) echo $n . (empty($t->editor_script_handles) ? " (no editor script)\n" : " ✓\n");
}' --path=wp

Every corex/* block should print ✓.

4. Apply a brand

Section titled “4. Apply a brand”

Design tokens live in theme/theme.json; a per-site brand.json overrides them at runtime (deep-merged via BrandResolver). See Apply a brand.

5. Log in

Section titled “5. Log in”

Visit http://corex.local/wp-admin/ (or your vhost). The Corex admin menu, login branding, and settings screen come from corex-config.
