I never lived in west Java, and didn't know if the script isn't taught
anymore at school. The hanacaraka is still.

I know latin alphabet almost completely replace the use of the
traditional script. And I do encourage you to translate WordPress into
Sundanese using latin alphabet instead of the traditional script. But
if you'd like to help promoting the script, you feel the usability of
it, and you still have extra energy to do so, why not?

There were a thread discussing the use of 2 different characters in a
single language using some kind of conversion code. I'm not sure if
the latin-sundanese conversion table is simple enough to be
implemented using the code.
