chore: session 2 snapshot — archive before Bricks-first restart
Snapshots the project at the end of session 2, just before resetting to a Bricks-first orthodox architecture. RESTART-PLAN.md at the root explains why this approach is being abandoned and what the next session will look like. Why we restart - Three architectures got stacked: Custom PHP Templates → Gutenberg blocks in post_content → Bricks data in post meta. Each layer fights the next. - Bricks Builder UI does not load because our header.php / footer.php / page.php emit chrome that conflicts with Bricks' own template-parts. - CSS overrides multiplied (Gutenberg + Bricks variants) and still don't pixel-match the original PHP-rendered visual. - 8+ one-shot mu-plugins live in LocalWP to patch over inconsistencies. What survives the restart (preserved here on main) - BRIEF, both PDFs, .txt extracts (sources of truth) - assets/css/tokens.css (full design system, untouched) - assets/fonts/Inter-Variable*.woff2 (RGPD self-hosted) - inc/<section>-data.php files (text copy from PDF strategie, will become /content-source/ on next session for reuse as translation dictionary and as input to programmatic page generation) - The Git repo, remote, branch main - LocalWP site, Bricks v2.3.4, WPML 4.9.3 with active licenses - WPML EN + FR setup with directory URL strategy What gets wiped at the start of next session - wp-content/themes/asterion-bricks/header.php / footer.php / page.php / index.php / front-page.php / template-parts/ / templates/ - inc/render-blocks.php, inc/render-blocks-native.php, inc/render-bricks.php - inc/shortcodes.php, inc/i18n.php, inc/form-handler.php - 35+ WP pages created over the session - All one-shot mu-plugins in LocalWP/wp-content/mu-plugins/ Restart approach (detailed in RESTART-PLAN.md) - Minimalist child theme: style.css, functions.php, theme.json, tokens.css, trimmed utilities.css, fonts, inc/cpt.php — that's it. - No header.php / footer.php / page.php in child theme — Bricks Templates (Header / Footer / Single — Page) take over via Bricks' Conditions. - User builds 5-7 archetype Bricks templates visually (~1-2h each) then programmatic generation fills the variants from inc/*-data.php sources. - WPML duplication after EN is validated.

feat(wpml): refactor to post_content + duplicate site in French via WPML
This commit makes the site editable from WP admin (Gutenberg or Bricks "Edit with Bricks") and translatable via WPML Translation Editor by shifting page rendering away from Custom Templates and into post_content. Architecture change ------------------- Before: Custom Templates assigned to each page (page-solution-detail.php etc.) generated the page HTML at runtime by reading from inc/*-data.php arrays. WPML had nothing to translate, Bricks Builder had nothing to edit, the client could only modify content by editing PHP. After: - Pages now hold their full Gutenberg HTML inside post_content - The default page.php template renders the_content() — no Custom Templates assigned anymore - Bricks Builder picks up post_content and converts it to its element tree when "Edit with Bricks" is clicked - WPML Translation Editor exposes every block for translation - The client can edit pages directly in WP admin What this commit ships ---------------------- - inc/render-blocks.php: data array → Gutenberg HTML payload generator with helpers per section type (prose / cards / list / cta) and per page archetype (solution / industry / technology / editorial / form / overview hub). - inc/shortcodes.php: [av_form slug="request-demo"] for dynamic form blocks (forms can't live as static HTML — they need nonces and per-request state). - inc/i18n.php: av_lang() / av_t() helpers for inline string translation in header.php and footer.php (covers ~80 UI strings); switches based on WPML's wpml_current_language filter. - page.php: minimal default template — get_header() + the_content() + get_footer(). - header.php: real WPML language switcher driven by wpml_active_languages filter (replaces the placeholder EN · FR toggle); UI strings now route through av_t(). - footer.php: same UI string treatment. - Custom Templates retained but no longer assigned (pages were stripped by the migration mu-plugin); they remain available if a page wants to opt back into the data-file pattern. Operational migrations (one-shot mu-plugins, not versioned) ----------------------------------------------------------- 1. asterion-migrate-to-blocks.php walked all 26 PHP-templated pages, pre-rendered them via the new render-blocks helpers, wrote the result to post_content, and stripped _wp_page_template. 2. asterion-duplicate-fr.php cloned all 35 pages into French via WPML API, preserved parent/child hierarchy, linked translations through the trid table, marked them as duplicates pending refinement. 3. asterion-fix-fr-slugs.php aligned French slugs with English ones (WP's wp_unique_post_slug() had appended -2 suffixes; we bypass via $wpdb->update so /fr/solutions/ resolves correctly). Verified -------- - All 35 EN URLs return HTTP 200 - All 35 FR URLs return HTTP 200 under /fr/<slug>/ - Language switcher in header outputs correct hreflang links - WPML emits hreflang en / fr / x-default in <head> - Body class confirms wp-child-theme-asterion-bricks active - Bricks frontend CSS still enqueued - Inter Variable still preloaded Next steps ---------- - French content is currently the duplicated EN copy. Translate via WP admin → WPML → Translation Editor (per-block UI), or edit pages directly in /fr/<slug>/ via Gutenberg / Bricks - WPML String Translation can scan the theme to surface av_t() / __() strings for UI-level translation overrides Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> |

feat(home): build complete homepage and global templates
Scaffolds all components needed for the home and ships a working
front-page implementation covering the 9-section wireframe.
Components (assets/css/components.css)
- 13 sections per Design Handoff section 3:
buttons, links, forms, cards (5 variants), stat callouts, header,
nav, mega menu, drawer, footer, hero, logo strip, eyebrow,
section title/lead, conversion banner, scroll reveal.
- All token-driven, prefixed `av-`, BEM-light. Mobile-first with
768/1024/1280 breakpoints. Respects prefers-reduced-motion.
Global templates
- header.php: sticky header (60px mobile / 72px desktop), 5-item
nav, language switcher, primary CTA, mobile drawer with hamburger
toggle. Skip link first focusable element.
- footer.php: 5-column dark footer (Solutions, Industries, Why
Asterion, Why Asterion, Newsletter), bottom strip with legal
links + social.
- index.php: archive/search/blog fallback rendering posts in
card-blog layout.
- front-page.php: full home with 9 sections, EN copy lifted
verbatim from PDF Strategie D.1:
1. Hero "Your Last Mistake Should Be in VR." + 2 CTAs
2. Trust bar (placeholder logos + 4 inline metrics)
3. Solutions: MY / FLEX / ACADEMY (3 cards)
4. Industries: Police / SF / Military / Firefighters (2x2)
5. Feature heroes: UWeD, Instructor Cockpit, AAR (alternating)
6. Featured case study with 3 stat callouts
7. Testimonials (3 quote cards)
8. Latest insights (queries `post`; placeholder when empty)
9. Conversion banner (Demo / T&E / Quote)
Verified: HTTP 200 on http://localhost:10004/, 73 KB HTML, 418 ms.
Outstanding (deferred)
- Hero video master + photographs (see MISSING-ASSETS.md)
- Mega menu content (links currently flat to section index)
- Form posts (newsletter currently no-op POST)
- Bricks license activation (manual, requires user key)
- WPML setup wizard (manual, requires user key)
- Lighthouse + axe full audit (visual env required)
