UQ Custom Sitewide
This code-based toolkit was built to overcome the limits of Gutenberg Block and WP Shortcode when using AI coding assistants in WordPress hybrid themes. It provides a simple, AI-friendly way to generate elements like 'Post Card' and 'Post Cards Group'. Implemented as a mu-plugin for theme independence and easy management across projects.

wp plugin install https://github.com/uquest2k15/uq-blog-kit/archive/refs/heads/main.zipThis library was built to tackle real-world problems I faced when setting up several corporate and community blogs. It started out as a personal project, and as a targeted, temporary fix, it uses some unconventional methods.
Working with AI coding assistants like Claude in hybrid themes like GeneratePress, I kept running into the limitations of standard Gutenberg blocks and WordPress templates/shortcodes. This toolkit is a simple, code-based solution that brings together the best features of those methods, allowing you to generate elements like 'Post Card' and 'Group of Posts' in a way that's easy for an AI to work with.
It's also implemented as a Must-Use plugin (mu-plugin) to minimize dependency on any specific theme and make it easier to manage across multiple ongoing projects.
