UT Shield

WordPress for Texas

WordPress for Texas (WFT) is a custom WordPress distribution provided by ITS for use on the Pantheon Web Hosting service.  WFT includes a UT branded theme and the necessary components to enable users to log in to a website using their UT EID.

By default, WFT uses a UT branded theme built on the Genesis framework and is populated with default content meant to display the versatility of the theme.  WFT is meant to meet accessibility standards and UT brand guidelines.

EID authentication integration can be requested from ITS and is made possible by the inclusion of WP SAML Auth and UTexas EID Auth plugins as well as the simpleSAMLphp library. See the Knowledge article in ServiceNow for more information on EID authentication for WFT.

WordPress for Texas Update 2023/01/13

This update reverts the updates we made to WordPress packaged themes — we’ve done this to avoid merge conflicts in customer sites when those themes were deleted or otherwise kept updated by site developers. We will not be updating the WordPress shipped themes in the future, and we apologize for any inconvenience caused!
