In this episode, Wynne Leon and Vicki Atkinson talk about site design and WordPress themes.
We know - we can hear you groaning from here. In fact, Wynne is groaning right along with you even though this is a large part of what she's done professionally for 30 years.
But if you are thinking about changing up your site or even
just wondering if you should, there are some good tactics to help make this manageable.
We talk through some of the design considerations to be
mindful of like navigation and search. And then we look at the sections to consider when picking a theme like the header, footer, and sidebar.
We address some of the problems we’ve heard people have encountered when switching themes in WordPress like content disappearing and inability to revert back. Wynne offers some strategies for avoiding that flavor
of disappointment and disaster.
There is a presentation that gives these elements and
examples to download as a companion piece to this podcast. Here’s the thing – tackling site design isn’t always fun, but it’s better when we do it together with some good approaches and tactics.
We're confident you’ll love the scenic and beautiful places
we explore as we share the power of storytelling as told through well-designed sites.
We know you’ll love it!
P.S. Here's the link to a PDF presentation of the ideas and process presented in this podcast conversation.
