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.

Check out what we've done with Wordpress on these sites listed below:
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.
Australian Jewish Democratic Society
The AJDS website was built in 2009 and built up an archive of a thousand posts on all kinds of issues. We provided repairs to their server and website enabling this content to become more discoverable and easier to administer.
Don’t Buy Settlement Products
Don’t Buy Settlement Products is a project of the Australian Jewish Democratic Society. The website contains valuable information about products produced in illegal settlement in Palestine, but had been hacked and needed a new home. We cleaned up the bugs and moved it to a new server, saving the AJDS money by consolidating it with […]
Young Shaman Foundation
YSF had a unique new project idea to guide young people through shamanic experiences. We came up with a site that presented their idea in a friendly, safe and inspiring way, while being flexible for future adaptations as their project grows. The Young Shaman Foundation project and website has been retired
Australian Nuclear Free Alliance
The Australian Nuclear Free Alliance had a site on WordPress.com for many years, but with the renewed threat of an international nuclear waste dump in Australia, it was time for a major update. We worked together to make the site look fresh and dynamic, and put user generated content plugin CRED to work to allow […]
Don’t Waste the Territory
The Central Australia Nuclear Free Alliance needed to quickly put up a website as they formed to oppose a new nuclear waste dump proposal near Alice Springs. We put this site up in a hurry but with a flexible architecture in mind should the government go ahead with the proposal.
Lawyers for Forests
Lawyers for Forests is an association of legal professionals working towards the protection and conservation of Australia’s remaining native forests. Their site had been built in 2003, but in 2015 it was hacked and it was time for a major upgrade.
Lizard Bites Back
The Desert Liberation Front needed a unique website to promote their carnival of protest against the world’s biggest Uranium Mine. We came up with this explosive design.
Taring Padi
The infamous Indonesian artist collective Taring Padi was paying too much for a host which didn’t meet their storage requirements. We migrated their site to help keep their archive of revolutionary artwork alive and online, and set up a shop for them to sell their wares internationally.
