Preliminary Design

So we’re casting the old website into WordPress. This is kind of the prototype. It’s a bare bones WordPress using the 2015 Theme. It’s current form is meant to be generic. The primary goal at the moment is to move the site to a WordPress hosted site to be able to move the DNS to the new hosting service, which gets us easier access to email to the doman. We’ll have all sorts of opportunity to improve the design and functionality with the new hosting.

The Home page is a blog page with an About entry pinned to the top. We should have the later blog entries listed on the Home page with the Navigation to other pages. Not thrilled with the Menu at the moment but it works. The idea is to make the Home page more dynamic and to highlight new items on an ongoing relatively low effort workflow. The other pages are sort of org critical and are static but linked through the menu: Membership stuff in particular. This theme has a menu on a sidebar for desktops and hamburger expansion on mobile. I’ve attached the PDF Membership forms so do they download.
