What was their problem?
The biggest issue QCTA had was that their website not only looked outdated but the system was outdated too. They needed a website that allowed them to easily keep track of and communicate with their club members and volunteers. Many individual clubs didn’t have their own website so QCTA also wanted to create a directory within their website so people could find their local club information.
What we did
The QCTA needed a whole new website capable of managing their main priorities. The team took on the design and development of the new website and worked together with QCTA to create a redesigned site with added features including a club directory.
Web design and development
We worked on a new look website that was bold and more modern:
- Updated with the brand colours and typography
- Generated better visibility and organisation of information
In the backend, we created a club directory that allowed clubs to:
- Create a single page listing themselves by submitting an online form
- Create their own club events
We implemented a robust volunteer management system so the QCTA could keep track of their volunteers:
- Sourcing appropriate plugins to achieve this
- Created custom code to provide the front-end view of current applications and their status on the Volunteer’s Account Page
Previously, QCTA and the individual clubs were adding PDFs that included dates for their events to the website. We created an events calendar for QCTA and the clubs to better manage the multiple event dates they have each month without having to upload documents.
The document control system we implemented used a specific plugin that we sourced to create a Custom Post Type. This has a built in version control and allows for replacing and updating of a document without changing the URL.
- Created custom code to build the front-end view on the User Account page
