Website Technical Updates

Project details

What we need
  • Updates and/or fixes to Organization’s existing website (e.g., bug fixes, plugin or widget integration, etc.)
  • Training for up to 3 Organization staff members on how to resolve minor issues going forward (if applicable)
Additional details

NNRG's website is hosted on Wordpress and uses the page builder Elementor. We are in the process of redesigning the layout and content of our homepage, and the layout of individual webpages and blog pages.

We're requesting a training session focused on the Elementor/Wordpress interface, compatibility across platforms, and improving load speed. We're happy to provide some specific questions ahead of the training.

What we have in place
  • We currently have a wordpress site that uses the page builder Elementor, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have the ability to give you administrator access to the site, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $3,757 , allowing us to devote more time and resources to connecting with forest landowners in the Northwest and working with them to implement ecological forestry practices in their own forests.

Our website is our primary tool for sharing information and resources on ecological forestry with small forest landowners in the Pacific Northwest. It has been several years since it has undergone an update, and we'd like to make some aesthetic changes that will make it more attractive and useful to our audience. But our current limited understanding of how to change default header, page, and footer layouts is hindering our ability to make those updates.
