## وەسف

Fresh Install Assistant (FIA) is a WordPress plugin designed to streamline the initial
setup process of new WordPress installations. It automates common cleanup tasks,
creates essential pages, and optionally installs popular themes, significantly reducing
the time needed to prepare a fresh WordPress site for development or production.

#### What This Plugin Does

**Essential Cleanup (8 tasks):**
 * Removes the default “Hello World” post * Removes
the default “Sample Page” * Changes the name and slug of “Uncategorized” category
to “Blog” * Sets the permalink structure to /%postname%/ * Removes “Hello Dolly”
plugin * Removes “Akismet” plugin * Disables comments and pingbacks site-wide * 
Hides dashboard widgets (Quick Draft, At a Glance, Activity, etc.)

**Initial Site Setup (5 tasks):**
 * Sets custom site title and tagline * Creates
starter pages: Home, Services, About, Contact, and Blog * Sets the Home page as 
the front page * Sets the Blog page as the posts page (optional) * Creates a main
navigation menu with these pages

**Theme Installation (Optional):**
 Choose to install and activate one of these 
popular themes: * Astra * GeneratePress * OceanWP * Blocksy * Neve * Hello Elementor*
Kadence

#### Smart Detection

The plugin intelligently checks before making changes:
 * Verifies if default posts/
pages exist before attempting deletion * Checks if plugins are present before removal*
Detects if pages already exist before creation * Confirms current settings before
making updates

This prevents errors and provides clear feedback about what actions were actually
necessary.

#### How It Works

 1. **Activation**: Upon plugin activation, you’ll be automatically redirected to the
    setup page
 2. **Configuration**: Select which tasks you want to perform (all are selected by 
    default)
 3. **Execution**: Click “Run Setup” to start the automated process
 4. **Results**: View detailed results showing completed, skipped, and failed tasks
 5. **Auto-deactivation**: The plugin automatically deactivates itself after successful
    completion

#### Perfect For

 * Developers who frequently set up new WordPress installations
 * Agencies managing multiple client sites
 * Anyone wanting to quickly clean up and configure a fresh WordPress installation

## سکرین شۆتەکان

 * [[
 * Setup page with three sections: Essential Cleanup, Initial Site Setup, and Theme

## دامەزراندن

    or install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly.

 3. You will be automatically redirected to the setup page

## پهد

### Will this plugin work on existing sites?

Yes, but it’s designed primarily for fresh installations. The smart detection system
will skip tasks that aren’t applicable (e.g., won’t delete pages that don’t exist).

### Can I run the plugin multiple times?

Yes, the plugin checks before making changes, so it’s safe to run multiple times.
However, it will skip tasks that have already been completed.

### What happens after the setup is complete?

The plugin displays detailed results and then automatically deactivates itself after
5 seconds to keep your plugins list clean.

### Is it safe to use?

Yes, the plugin includes security measures like capability checks, nonce verification,
and data sanitization. It only performs the specific tasks listed and nothing more.
