This site uses a modified version of the Twenty Ten theme. Twenty Ten is the default theme for WordPress 3.0 and is compatible with all new WordPress 3.0 features.

WordPress’ Dashboard is the entrance to admining your website. The Dashboard is very adjustable and flexible to how content providers or editors wish to work. The Dashboard editor can create new blog posts or new pages (with different template designs) in a visual view or HTML coding view.

Creating custom Google Maps or setting up a new photo gallery all can be done easily from the Dashboard.

With WordPress 3.0, your site menu bar is drag and drop adjustable. In the past, this required a web programmer and coding. No more, the end-user can create or adjust the site’s navigational structure.

By simple drag and drop setup of sidebar widgets, the client can create a customized sidebar including; calendars, Twitter or RSS feeds, or maybe a localized weather widget. This site uses the Google Translation engine for site localization and languages can be selected from the site’s sidebar.

I use the nextGen WP plugin to generate photo galleries. In the past, photo galleries required separate software that did not integrate well with the rest of the website. NextGen is a photo gallery plugin that was developed to work specifically with WordPress. Clients can easily upload, optimize, label, and organize their photo collections and embed these nextGen galleries anywhere into their blog post or webpage.

Google Analytics is integrated into each page of this WP site. Google Analytics, along with a researched SEO plan will ensure good search engine results. An added convenience is that the SEO reports from Google show up automatically in the WP Dashboard (admin) area.

The UMapper plugin gives content providers the opportunity to create Google Interactive maps directly in WordPress. The content provider can draw custom KML overlays in the map editor over the Google map titles  and publish the map to any location, size and scale.

WordPress sites can easily be ported to mobile devices. Mobile themes sense smartphone viewing and re-adapt the client’s content to different mobile devices. Not only does the WordPress site look good on mobile devices, site content providers and editors can update their site from their smartphones. To understand how WordPress addresses site design and styling see WordPress themes.
