I think in the last week I’ve changed almost everything on my website in such small ways that it’s barely noticeable but adds to a better overall look. I definitely spent too much time on little things that did not need them (my home page) but I’ve learned a lot more about WordPress so a win is still a win.

I decided to make things harder for myself so I placed my sidebar in the middle which my theme did not enjoy. I didn’t have too much to add to it just yet since the website was just made but I hope to populate it a bit more. For now, it just has the premade blocks to display your categories and recent posts. Then because I spent too much time looking at it I wanted to add some flare I learnt how to do some small HTML coding and added some border and background effects to the text.

For the plugins task, I chose to add the Accessibility Checker. I remember that we briefly mentioned it during one of our cohort meetings and thought it would be a good one to try out. I’m still working on fixing the entire website because there are a lot of small things that are easy to assume would be easily accessible and are very much not.

I think I’m most excited to learn more about graphic design because I enjoy creating. I already know how to use a few applications but I’ve always wanted to spend more time really learning about it so this would be fun for me.

  1. Feli, you are so cool and you made me laugh out loud with your home page gifs! You absolutely captured the essence of training at the DKC in the best format possible. I love the theme you chose, it seems to have a lot of cool features!

  2. Feli your website is so pretty and easy to navigate, as well as very pretty and simple. I am looking forward to your other posts and developments!! 🙂

  3. I love all the little tweaks you’ve done to your site. I definitely have noticed it does have a cleaner look. I want you to show me what you did with the HTML, that is ambitious! It is great you are spending so much time exploring because the more you do (as you’ve probably experienced) the more you’ll understand about WordPress. You will definitely be ahead of the game when we get to talking about accessibility, I’m glad you are exploring that 🙂

  4. I love how your website is formatted. It looks polished and clean. Also, I like your idea of choosing an accessibility plugin.

  6. I loved everything about this website! From the home page to the fun little sparkles on the posts, everything about it makes me smile. WordPress is all about tinkering and changing things until you figure out the perfect way to customize your site for you and your preferences. Coding is hard! Good job for figuring it out!
