I have converted the British Driving Society West Wales website to WordPress so that the BDS Area commissioner and her assistants can add Events, News, Galleries, Information etc. I have kept the original design created by Lester Dagge, Dagge Design and built a WordPress theme that closely matches his layout. The theme is responsive so that resizes to fit on mobile devices.
I have improved the search facility on Dragon Driving. You can now search the large number of equestrian adverts by a number of categories eg price bracket or size bracket. The results can also be ordered by price, size or date. The main improvement is the ability to see adverts from a particular area. Multiple areas can be selected by pressing Ctrl and selecting another area from the list.
Plas Equestrian have posted on their website the dates and venues where Plas Equestrian will be exhibiting this year. The most popular venue is the Royal Welsh Showground. The first outing is at Lampter Stallion Show and they are going as far as Endurance G.B. Berkshire Downs Ride at Alden Equestrian Centre.
A few tweeks have been completed on the Driving Driving Horses for sale web site. The search facility has been made more prominent on each page. A simple search can be made with one click rather than going to a search page. The subscribe to the Dragon Driving daily listings newsletter has also been added to each page. The newsletter is emailed out each morning and lists all the new adverts and all the advert which have been changed in the previous 24 hours.
There have also been some javascript changes the tabbed panel and image enlargement / overlay is now performed using jquery. Users can now navigate between advert images.
Look out for some more tweeks to the Dragon Driving website in the near future.
I have converted the Angelbank Wedding Carriages website to WordPress. I have changed the top banner images to a J-Query Cycle to rotate through the header images instead of having a different image on each page. The latest news items are also available at the foot of each page. Lester will now have full access to easily update all the content.
A new adverts category has been added to the Dragon Driving website. Now if you have a Carriage for restoration and carriage parts for sale these have their own section on the website.
