 might be a good idea to give the option to unset styles, in case someone would like to provide their own. Check out how WooCommerce does it for example.

Another good idea for larger, framework-like plugins is to separate stylesheets into domains, i.e. have different stylesheets for layout, mediaqueries, and aesthetics (colors, etc). That way it’s much easier for someone to provide a different custom theme to our plugin without having to re-style its layout.

Test your plugin against the top 100 themes of WordPress.org

The last piece of advice can be the most tedious but it has shown to be the most valuable in terms of figuring out how our plugin behaves in various popular themes and what we can do to fix it.

Here’s a small bash one-liner with WP-CLI that we use here at CSSIgniter to automate the installation of the first hundred most popular themes on WordPress.org for our own testing purposes:

curl -gs "https://api.wordpress.org/themes/info/1.1/?action=query_themes&request[browse]=popular&request[per_page]=100" | grep -o -E -e '"slug":".+?"' | awk -F: '{ print $2 }' | tr -d \" | xargs wp theme install

Simply install WP-CLI and run the above in your terminal while inside the directory containing your WordPress installation.

Beware though: avoid fixing very special edge cases caused by a theme’s bad usage of CSS, it only adds to the vicious circle! Instead, open a ticket on the theme’s support forum and try to work the issue with the theme author.

And that’s it! We’ve certainly covered the mere basics here but even so, they should be more than enough as a starting point for a much better developer experience.
