Marriner Base WordPress Theme

There is a GIT repo to handle clean WordPress installs with a very basic starter theme in place. This handles all of our plugins and starter files for getting a theme going. Don't expect much code, but the foundation to start building out a custom theme for a new website. We'll try to keep this updated with the latest and greatest.

This theme includes the Marriner Configuration plugin to help set up clean WordPress installs, declare LESS variables, and more.

Currently all of the Metabox plugins are included separately if you'd like to only utilize specific ones. However, there is an easier approach that keeps the plugin section clean. Use only the main Metabox plugin coupled with Metabox AIO (all-in-one) to neatly install all the other metabox extensions without having to manually do them one by one.

Use the other included plugins as needed. Delete any unused plugins for this new project from it's repo and FTP/web server so there is not a lot of unused clutter.
