Scouting Themes 4 WordPress http://www.iscout4wordpress.org.uk Making Scouting websites look pretty. Sun, 08 Jan 2012 23:27:40 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 Reef Knot 4 WordPress launched http://www.iscout4wordpress.org.uk/blog/reef-knot-4-wordpress-launched/ http://www.iscout4wordpress.org.uk/blog/reef-knot-4-wordpress-launched/#comments Sun, 08 Jan 2012 23:27:40 +0000 Chris http://www.iscout4wordpress.org.uk/?p=133 The fourth Scouting Theme 4 WordPress has been designed for Groups and Districts who see the need for an online presence, but don’t have the volunteer time or technical expertise to manage a proper website.

The aim of the Reef Knot 4 WordPress theme is to enable these groups to set up a website that provides an external contact point and basic information without requiring substantial effort setting up and maintaining. As such, the content of the website is five simple widget boxes for basic data, such as “Who we are”, “What we do”, “Find us”, and “Contact us and join the adventure!”.

Firstly, the navigation bar has been updated to include a log-in link so that you can use these themes to run a Members website and hide information behind a wall away from casual internet visitors and only accessible by members (and make it easy for them to log in).

The other change is to the footer: I have modified this to include a CEOP button and make it slightly tidier.

There are also a couple of minor aesthetic alterations, but nothing major.

Hopefully it is both easier on the eye and more intuitive to actually use and navigate.

I have made one key change to the site: to download the themes, you must now register. This is so that I can monitor how many people are using the themes and communicate with them when updates are made or other such new information needs to be passed on.
