[Tutorial] Deploying CiviCRM on WordPress Bedrock and Upsun ๐Ÿš€

Setting up CiviCRM on top of a Bedrock-based WordPress installation can feel like a major engineering grind. Dealing with custom database schemas and optimized Composer configurations often leads to complex setup friction.

Here is how to streamline this deployment on Upsun:

  • The problem: Standard WordPress layouts make it difficult to manage dependencies and custom MariaDB schemas required by CiviCRM.
  • The fix: Leverage an optimized Composer template and a dedicated .environment shell file to configure your environments cleanly.
  • Why it matters: Developers get a structured, reproducible deployment pipeline that works out of the box with Upsun configuration.

Check out the full technical guide to see the exact Composer configurations and database setup steps:
