#Autoloading

Twigpress can mimic Worpress the Wordpress template inheritance cascade but load twig files instead. This is useful if you intend need a drop in PHP replacement.

The theme only needs a index.php file which tells Twigpress to mimic Worpress normal template inheritance and load the appropriate Twig template.

// /themes/yourTheme/index.php
$Twigpress->registerGlobalFunctions();
echo $Twigpress->autoDisplay($wp_query);

A query for:

 example.org/?author=1

Would do the following lookup:

1. Is there a PHP file with higher specificity? If so let it have the query (this is done by Wordpress).

   1. author-max.php
   2. author-1.php
   3. author.php
   4. index.php

2. Twigpress uses the following cascade to look in its path for templates:

   1. author-max.html.twig
   2. author-max.twig
   3. author-1.html.twig
   4. author-1.twig
   5. author.html.twig
   6. author.twig
   7. index.html.twig
   8. index.twig
   9. error
