On A Mission

Right now, I am in the middle of a duel with WordPress. 

After some progress making tweaks to the WordPress cast hub design in terms of fonts and color palette, I made updates to the home page structure through the WordPress pattern menu. This is situated in its editor, adjacent to the individual block function.

I cannot deny the frustration with a tool that doesn’t always operate in an intuitive fashion. On the bright side, the font I selected that would only work in lower case or upper case is now displaying as you would expect. Yah!

One hurdle cleared.

Putting aside the technical skills I’m working on at the moment, I turned back to the spreadsheet I created in the pre-work week. Here I reviewed the leg work completed before, while looking for inspiration at other portfolio sites.

Structure in Place

The WordPress blog will comprise of the primary blog page, named On A Mission at onamissioncomms.blog because of its focus on content that caters to nonprofit organizations. 

The other sections of the site, including the About and Portfolio pages will be recreated on a WordPress site named juliasportfolio that will point to the On A Missions blog. While this isn’t the ideal because it requires two separate subscriptions, it is a good solution for this project’s requirements.

Portfolio pages will include:

• AI for nonprofits
• Premiere Pro Video 
• Social Media Creative
• Visually Attuned
• Web Technologies (built once course completed)

WordPress presents as an incredibly intuitive website builder and it is, when it wants to work. 

Today is not that day because recent progress has disappeared.

I need to exercise some self preservation and patience. Tomorrow is a new day.
