Bring the Theme Directory to WordPress

[obenland]

The plan is to move the Theme Repository away from bbpress and have it be a plugin and theme instead.
We can re-use the theme install UI from the WordPress admin for displaying and filtering themes on the front-end.
The plugin part would be a CPT for the repo package, and the theme uploader.

The theme can be found here. Initial commit: r887.

The plugin is not public yet, should be made available shortly though.

In 1001:

WP.org Themes: Bring theme installer goodies to the front-end.

This brings most of the Backbone and Themes API-based functionality
from the admin's theme install screen to the front-end.

There are of course still loads of things to do, but it works
decently enough to share it with the world and give an idea of where
this is headed.

See ​https://make.wordpress.org/meta/2014/11/20/theme-repository-theme/
See #745.

[obenland]

In 1009:

WP.org Themes: Add Downloads and Developer sections.

Adds the downloads graph and developer links to the single view modal.
We still need to add the today/yesterday/last week/total download counts to the
API if we wanted to display them as well, but this is a good start.

See #745.

[obenland]

In 1021:

WP.org Themes: First pass at improved single theme page.

In 1116:

Theme Directory: Don't create a folder within a folder.

This prevents the temporary upload folder to duplicate the theme slug, going
from temp-dir/slug/slug/ to temp_dir/slug.

See ​https://themes.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/42066
See ​https://themes.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/42068

See #745.

[obenland]

In 1118:

Theme Directory: Fix a bug where exisiting ticket couldn't be found.

We were looking in the wrong post meta bucket for a ticket ID.

This also removes a redundant update for the latest version's status,
and since this can now be considered a working Trac connection, enables the
fail safe in case anything goes wrong with Trac interactions.

See #745.

[obenland]

In 1119:

WP.org Themes: Make sure routes can be matched on index.

Reverts r1089.

It turns out that there is already a built-in way to account for subfolder installs:
By correctly setting the path offset.

See #745.

Replying to designsimply:

Any possibility of making space for a documentation section or tab in this new view? See #215.

I'd like to avoid making changes to the theme modal for now. It was possible to safe a lot of time by keeping things simple and sticking to what we have in the admin theme install page.

[obenland]

In 1149:

WP.org Themes: Prevent a flash of server-rendered themes.

Themes will be rerendered and displayed by Javascript.

See #745.

[obenland]

In 1216:

WP.org Themes: Make sure uploaded theme files are always deleted.

We were already at a state where files were always deleted, independent from
the outcome of automated checks. Hocking it to PHP shutdown let's us clean up
in one place, and we don't have to worry about remembering to add it in when
other checks are added or existing checks modified.

See #745.

[obenland]

In 1219:

WP.org Themes: Remove approval workflow.

Theme Review Admins do a final check on Trac and set themes live from there.
For the off chance that a ticket needs manual adjustment, version statuses can
be changed in the edit screen of a repopackage item.

This also removes Trac syncing, in order for it to be added as a script on the
dotorg side.

WP.org Themes: Improve downloads graph display.

• Use data from the past tow years.

once they are applied.

[obenland]

In 1274:

WP.org Themes: Use main query instead of Themes API for server output.

• Can now deal properly with /browse/*/ URL structure.

• Brings single theme view closer to melchoyce's mockups.

See #745.

[obenland]

In 1279:

Avoids an errand margin on the body element on single page views.

See #745.

[obenland]

In 1285:

WP.org Themes: Improve check for pre-existing themes.

We need to specify post stati, so the check for an existing theme doesn't fail
for users who lack the ability to preview drafts.

See #745.

[obenland]

In 1286:

WP.org Themes: Finish browse setups.

• To achieve parity between server-side and API results of featured themes, the

API will continue to be responsible for determining which themes are featured.
It will store the featured theme's post IDs in cache, for the directory to use.

• We'll use the same query adjustment as in the API to get the same ouput of

popular themes.

• New themes will just be the latest themes, much like blog posts.

See #745.

[obenland]

In 1296:

WP.org Themes: Update document title according to current view.

Also improves UX when closing a modal, URL and title are now agnostic of the
last index view.

See #745, #850.

[obenland]

In 1299:

[obenland]

In 1312:

WP.org Themes: Fall back to featured themes if there is no index history.

This can happen when a single theme was requested and the modal gets closed.

See #745.

[obenland]

In 1337:

WP.org Themes: Display parent theme information on the PHP side.

With the switch away from using the API, we have to manually set the required
fields for our requests. Since wp_parse_args() only parses one level deep,
this is a bit more verbose than usual.

See #745.

In 1338:

WP.org Themes: Save parent theme ID during upload.
