What it does
Adds a learner-facing
Remote Sitesguide for bringing an existing ForkPress-compatible WordPress site into a local branch over SSH. The guide covers thin syncs, branch creation, previews, plugin installation from wp-admin, and the top-100 plugin support target.Rationale
The project docs had command reference coverage and a top-plugin support page, but a new user did not have a single path from
forkpress initto a remote clone they could preview and modify. This adds that path and links it from the README, branching guide, command reference, and docs sidebar.Implementation
docs/remote-sites.mdas the primary onboarding guide.README.md,docs/branching.md, anddocs/commands.mdso users find the workflow before they need the full command reference.--include-uploads,--full-sync,--ssh-key,--ssh-port,--url, plugin install paths, and top-plugin support link.Testing instructions
