the internship seeking activities you are doing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

I just had a lengthy video discussion for the second internship opportunity in Oshkosh. I’ll be making a website for a church from scratch; as in, they currently have no web presence at all. So talks of creating a website, along with perhaps social media links, are all being proposed and sorted into a project scope.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

the internship work you are doing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

At the moment I have an instance of WordPress active to test out the form plugin I’ve chosen, Contact Form 7. Supposedly there’s a bit of a learning curve but I am interested in learning it over other options as I have consistently heard CF7 is free versus other solutions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

the experiences you are having<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

I’ve made progress in transitioning some of the assets from the existing site to the new site. I’m still working on drafts for layouts and logos, but oftentimes with WordPress I find it best to backup the site and just experiment within the playground. If it works, save a backup and keep moving forward. If it doesn’t, restore the backup. I think this is a better way of drafting ideas because it more accurately conveys the limitations of what is possible with your own skillset and comfort levels of working in a CMS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

mini tutorials or examples of work you did<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

I’ve been researching Form Plugins to use that are free and experimenting with them to find one that suits the needs of my client. The ones I have seen recommended are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  • Content Form 7<\/li>
  • Ninja Forms <\/li>
  • Caldera Forms<\/li>
  • Formidable<\/li>
  • WP Forms<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n
