We put together this simple site using WordPress, the Miyazaki theme and Action Network. Anders Noren’s themes are a go-to for me, they always look modern, cool and clean, and the templates are really straightforward to work out what’s what. And this one works really nicely with Gutenberg. Reallly stoked to be working with folks […]
Shhh. Here's a secret. Designing and updating a website with Wordpress is pretty easy.
If you're already used to using Word, Email, or Social Media, you're only a small step from keeping your audience up to date with your latest news, events and cat videos from your very own website. We love giving our clients all the skills they need to take control over their own content - and this way their websites can stay up to date with the latest information at a fraction of the cost.
If you're more computer savvy, it doesn't take much to jump in and edit a few lines of code to make your website that much more awesome. It can help a lot to have someone to get you started though, and we're always happy to share what we know in training sessions, workshops, as well as on our blog
Check out some of the projects we've provided training for below, and feel free to contact us if you need a hand working out how to do that thing.
Supina Bytol
This is a quick artist portfolio site we whipped up, which sadly wasn’t kept online by the artist. Supina’s diverse and inventive body of work couldn’t be represented by just one colour, so we made the colours change each time you reload the page. Hopefully this keeps it fresh. Not sure though what’s your opinion?
Hands Off Public Housing
Hands Off Public Housing needed an easy to use, friendly website to inform the community of the planned sell off of public housing to private developers – about which the Victorian government has provided little real information. We put WordPress and Divi to quickly put together this campaign site.
Housing for the Aged Action Group
I’m currently working as Digital Communications Officer for Housing for the Aged Action Group’s National Action Project. I’m enjoying putting my skills learnt in web design to use inside a grassroots community group, as well as learning new skills including Drupal 7, Views, Sass, Drush and Git. As well as keeping the site and social […]
The Memoir Salon
We put this website together using Elegant Theme’s page builder ‘Divi’ in combination with custom fields and post types to make updating the site with monthly events as user friendly as possible. Custom queries for Upcoming/Previous events make this website more dynamic and easy to maintain than a standard page builder design.
Close Pine Gap
Close Pine Gap took on building their own website using WordPress after participating in website training with Actionskills. We just helped them to make some minor edits to the templates and to extend the functions of their site using plugins to help achieve their vision for the site.
Deewin Kirim Aboriginal Corporation
We were lucky to get the opportunity to share some experience using computers in Peppimenarti near Daly River in the top-end of the N.T, teaching a Cert I in IT to local community members. It was great to step away from web design and get back to the basics of using computers – navigating the […]
Tuff Guts
Tuffy had built an awesome portfolio site using WordPress.com, but needed a new theme to give it a fine-art finish. We built this site as a white wall gallery space for the artwork to take centre stage.
Post Polio Victoria
Post Polio Victoria had put together their own website with a default WordPress installation, but realised they needed some help understanding the difference between Pages and Posts, Categories and Tags when they thought that their website was ‘full’. We helped them to re-organise their site and redesign their theme for the modern era.
Freedom Flotilla to West Papua
We worked tirelessly to create this website
Federal Republic of West Papua
We approached the design of this site to work with the Federal Republic of West Papua’s principles of sustainability, self-determination, and good governance
