#Contributing ### Getting Started Submit a ticket for your issue, assuming one does not already exist. * Raise it on our [Issue Tracker](https://github.com/deliciousbrains/wp-amazon-s3-and-cloudfront) * Clearly describe the issue, including steps to reproduce the bug (if applicable). * If it's a bug, make sure you fill in the earliest version that you know has the issue as well as the version of WordPress you're using. ## Making Changes * Fork the repository on GitHub. * From the `master` branch on your forked repository, create a new branch and make your changes. * It is suggested that your new branch use a name that briefly describes the feature or issue. * Ensure you stick to the [WordPress Coding Standards](http://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Coding_Standards). * When committing, use a [well-formed](http://robots.thoughtbot.com/5-useful-tips-for-a-better-commit-message) [commit](http://tbaggery.com/2008/04/19/a-note-about-git-commit-messages.html) [message](http://who-t.blogspot.com/2009/12/on-commit-messages.html). * Push the changes to your fork and submit a pull request to the `master` branch of the plugin's repository. * We appreciate any pull requests, however, as development on this plugin actually takes place in private repo, no PRs will be merged here. Although we will give props for code that gets released. ## Code Documentation * Code comments should be added to all new functions/methods. * Comments should tell you the "what" & "why". You'll typically want a one-liner that says what it does, hopefully why, but not how. Only very rarely should they tell you how (e.g. when the code is necessarily complex). * Also see the [WordPress PHP Documentation Standards](http://make.wordpress.org/core/handbook/inline-documentation-standards/php-documentation-standards/) doc for general guidelines and best practices. * We currently suggest implementing the `@param` & `@return` PHPdoc tags for every function/method if applicable. At this point you're waiting on us to merge your pull request. We'll review all pull requests, and make suggestions and changes if necessary. # Additional Resources * [GitHub Help — Forking](https://help.github.com/articles/fork-a-repo) * [GitHub Help — Syncing a Fork](https://help.github.com/articles/syncing-a-fork) * [GitHub Help — Pull Requests](https://help.github.com/articles/using-pull-requests#before-you-begin)
