Description
The site currently uses Swift Page Builder and a Swiftideas Cardinal child theme. It has become slow to load and edit and is difficult to maintain.
We do not want to simply replace it with a different multi-purpose theme and plugins. We want a properly coded custom theme without using unnecessary plugins which create slow code.
The new theme must include a way to easily adjust existing content and add future content (pages & posts) in a straightforward editor. We currently use the Swift Page Builder but are not happy with it.
EXISTING SETUP
Wordpress
Swiftideas Cardinal child theme
Swift Page Builder (powerful, but slow and generates convoluted code)
WooCommerce store with products on https://macinteract.com/learn
Coursepress Pro (online training courses plugin)
WatuPro (quiz plugin)
Gravity Forms
Yoast SEO
NEW SETUP
Wordpress with new custom macinteract theme
• replicate existing layout across all pages & posts
• create clear structured CSS and create consistent styles across the site
• integrate existing hard-coded homepage into new theme
• use footer from homepage across all pages
• integrate existing WooCommerce store and products into new theme
• integrate existing CoursePress Pro course pages into new theme
• integrate existing WatuPro quiz into new theme
• reduce number of options, e.g sidebar options
• adjust search results page layout & font size to match existing pages & posts

Hi Daniel
Are you performing a redesign at the same time? If yes, do you have the design in place ready for the bespoke theme to be developed?

Thanks for getting in touch. No we are not redesigning the website, i.e. we want it exactly as it is now.... apart from the footer and the alignment of the woocommerce store on https://macinteract.com/learn and some other alignment and font size issues, which the current setup does not allow us to control.
Does that clarify your question?
Kind regards, Daniel. -

Hi Daniel,
Many thanks for the invitation to your job.
Your job description is very unclear to me. Can you please clarify what you mean?
What are you referring to when you mention 'the main website', 'currently a hack outside the actual theme'? It's very confusing and not easy to follow what you are referring to.
I look forward to hearing back from you with clarification.
Kind regards,
MatthewDaniel S.18 May 2020Matthew,
Thanks for your reply and sorry for the confusion.
Essentially we could not get our current wordpress theme to create our homepage to look like the way we wanted. So we basically resorted to create it as basic HTML page instead, which does not rely on the theme nor CSS of the wordpress theme.
The intention is to properly include this into the theme, so we can update it from within wordpress instead of coding in HTML and uploading it separately.
Hope that makes sense?
Kind regards,
Daniel.
