Deal with Stress

Deal with Stress - with Irene Lock

Irene wanted a replacement for her rather dated website. Although she had been given instructions to maintain the original site she found it too complicated. Her first requirement "Can you centre the page in the window?" could have been a one line change to the CSS... But I could not see a (simple) way of doing it under the current implementation. Since the hosting was due to expire, we looked at the replacement options. We developed a prototype in WordPress, but that seemed too inflexible.

So I migrated it to Drupal.

David Page is an engineer specialising in the manufacture and sales of the Burrell 6 inch scale steam locomotive. He had a website which contained a gallery of photos and a video.

Anchor Golf Society (.co.uk)

Anchor Golf Society - Nov 2010

www.anchorgolf.co.uk is the replacement site for anchorgolf.com

The Anchor Golf Society wanted to be able to collaborate on the content creation and update of the website. We created a new site, using the Drupal Content Management System with a style similar to the original site. We have focussed on managing the content rather than the look and feel.

What should my website look like?

 

Ever since I started migrating my Bobbing Wide static website to Drupal I've had little challenges to overcome related to the look and feel (theme) of the site.

My latest challenge is that the primary menu has gone funny again.
