My long term friend Stephen Cocconi, who does personal consulting, teaching, and channeling, asked me to transform his old static HTML site into something dynamic that he could maintain. I interpreted his existing web site design in a modular fashion and built a WordPress site with custom plugins to address his desired features. I then trained him on how to use the WordPress interface, my custom plugin administration panel, and to add new custom content. Live features include:
- Hierarchy of pages, blog categories, and custom taxonomies to represent the unique teaching system he uses in his personal trade.
- A WordPress plugin/widget to display random testimonials from his clients, along with a custom database for him to add entries to via web interface.
- A custom tarot card application, reproducing the features of an old inflexible JavaScript application and adding new features.
- Custom images, css, page type, and category pages for individual tarot cards, designed and produced by Stephen
- Custom pages and a WordPress [shortcode] syntax allowing Stephen to specify a variety of layouts in which to deal the cards
- Custom CSS for card display, in multiple modes and contexts (dealt, undealt, shown in category list)
- Links to custom taxonomies and detail pages for more info on cards
