== Description ==
# LDP Plugin for wordpress
The goal of this project is to be able to manage (create, list, display) LDP resources directly from a Wordpress site backend.
The definition we apply for [LDP resource](https://www.w3.org/TR/ldp/#ldpr-resource), [LDP containers](https://www.w3.org/TR/ldp/#dfn-linked-data-platform-basic-container) and LDP are based on the [W3C specification released](https://www.w3.org/TR/ldp/ "the LDP specification") in january 2015.
# Architecture
This plugin defines a custom content type called ldp_resource, which allows users to create resources on the fly.
It also adds a custom taxonomy called ldp_container, having a metadata ldp_model being a simple JSON based model to use in accordance with your owns semantic ontologies.
It adds a section in the Settings menu, allowing users to initialize our default PAIR (Projects, Actors, Ideas, Resources) containers to generate their resources in this format.
The documentation regarding the PAIR ontology [can be find on Github](https://github.com/assemblee-virtuelle/pair/).
# The reason
Wordpress is a widely used CMS, especially in the non-profits world because it is free, open-source, solid and coming with a really rich ecosystem.
This plugin is part of the development of the AV Proof of concept we will to deliver in a near future.

== Frequently Asked Questions ==
= Will that plugin be useful to me out of the box ? =
Outside of the context of willing to share some resources between different websites, as the LDP goal is, it won't be useful to you.
