Reinvent Coaching Process – WordPress Plugin

by George Lerner, GitHub https://github.com/glerner/

A professional WordPress plugin for guiding users through the Reinvent Coaching Process, inspired by the Hero's Journey and Super Self frameworks. The plugin presents a series of reflective questions, explanations, and input fields to help users document, edit, and analyze their personal reinvention journeys.

The app will ask the user about themselves:

• ask the user what they want next in life

• ask the user what skills they have, what projects interest them, what their attention is on, what they are drawn to, what they want to learn

• ask the users about past times they reinvented themselves, or had a massive change in life. Go through each of the coaching questions, for each element of that reinvention

• analyze the user's personality type, motivators, what they avoid, what learning style they have,

• analyze the progression in their life, how each reinvention got them to the start of the next reinvention, leading them to where they are today

• Taking everything the user has said, select 5 to 20 ways they could reinvent themselves now, consistent with who they are now, that would increase their financial, business, health, relationship, community, as many aspects of their life as possible.

Features

• Interactive questionnaire with explanations for each step of the reinvention process

• Supports multiple reinvention journeys per user

• Save, retrieve, and edit answers at any time

• Clean, accessible UI for large text input fields

• Integration-ready for future AI-powered analysis and insights

• Built using PHP, WordPress API, and follows Model-Service-View-Controller (MSVC) architecture

• Fully unit tested with PHPUnit and custom test framework

Getting Started

Prerequisites

• WordPress 6.0+
• PHP 8.0+
• Composer (for dependency management)
• Git

Installation

1. Clone this repository into your WordPress wp-content/plugins/ directory:

   cd ~/your-sites-wordpress/wp-content/plugins
   git clone https://github.com/glerner/reinvent.git reinvent-coaching-process
   cd reinvent-coaching-process

2. Initialize and update submodules:

   git submodule update --init --recursive

3. Install Composer dependencies:

   composer install

Development Setup

Composer Configuration

The plugin uses Composer for autoloading and dependency management. The root composer.json defines the autoloading for the GL_Reinvent namespace.

Testing Framework

The testing framework is included as a Git submodule. The sync-to-wp.php script handles merging the test framework's Composer configuration with the plugin's configuration.

Running Tests

1. Ensure you have a local WordPress installation with a test database
2. Copy .env.testing.example to .env.testing and update the database credentials
3. Run the sync and test script:

   php bin/sync-and-test.php --unit

Available test commands:

• --unit: Run unit tests
• --wp-mock: Run WP_Mock tests
• --integration: Run integration tests
• --all: Run all test suites

Development Workflow

1. Make your code changes
2. Write or update tests
3. Run the tests:

   php bin/sync-and-test.php --unit

4. The script will automatically sync your changes to the test environment and run the tests
5. Activate the plugin from the WordPress admin dashboard.
