Frequently Asked Questions

Is this plugin on the WordPress repo?

No. It's meant to be more of a white-label plugin to use for your own client projects.

What is Gruntfile.js and package.json used for?

This is how translation files (.pot) are built. If you have Grunt installed and need to generate a new translation file, just run npm install and then grunt. If i18n is not needed for your project, feel free to remove.

Can I use this one my own site?

Yes, go ahead. If you're also interested in having metaboxes, you may also want to look at this project.
