  • Keshet

    My best challenge for this compendium of Jewish LGBT resources was the highly-classified equality guide geo search. The “I’m looking for” menu (enhanced with Chosen) allows geo searches for specific taxonomy terms and also some pre-defined combinations of terms. The separate, extra-important affiliation selector combines with this choice. Whew! There were lots of other features…

  • Namati – Innovations in Legal Empowerment

    This is my first BuddyPress site, made once again in cahoots with vernal creative and free range studios. The social functions let member organizations share ideas and tools, while non-member visitors may browse the organization directory, tools, publications, blog, news, and more. The interface sports a couple of varieties of jQuery sliders, data tables, custom…

  • RSF impact map adds content flow, AJAX loading, and more

    Ever seen a map of custom markers synchronized with thumbnail images in a content flow that dynamically loads content including tabs, post listings, and a slide show? I hadn’t either! I was not certain it could be done, but perseverance paid off. The map is tied to the thumbnails, so an item selected in either…

  • Congressional Hunger Center – DataTables!

    I did a lot of custom WordPress development for this site, but the highlight is the browsing interface for their large library of publications. Publications are presented in a table using the great open source DataTables jQuery plugin. We needed even more filtering abilities to refine the table contents, so I wrote an add on…

  • Natural Lands Trust Geo Search

    Natural Lands Trust, a collection of conservation areas in Pennsylvania and New Jersey, hired me to customize their Geo Mashup implementation with a Google-like lettered marker display of geo search results, and some improved handling of the KML-based boundary maps for individual preserves like the Glades Wildlife Refuge. I think it really brings the reality…

Next up is an interface for users to submit their projects using a customized gravity form to make the map as social…

  • Fair Trade Towns USA

    This is one of my larger projects: a nation-wide site for communities that promote fair trade practices. My part of the project demanded a lot from WordPress and Geo Mashup – here are a few standouts: Many custom content types: towns, organizers, retailers, community organizations, and more. Front end forms for users to create content…

  • We Are America Map

    Working with Vernal Creative, I customize Geo Mashup to create a map of submitted immigrant stories from across the united states. Additional work went into the video post submission interface, built on top of the All in One Video Pack plugin.

  • Tata Telepresence Map

    Client: Vernal Creative The locations of Tata’s impressive video teleconferencing rooms are presented on a customized Geo Mashup map, with the both an info window summary for each marker, more information about a selected location in the sidebar, and a list of locations by continent below. The CSS wizards at Vernal managed the stylish info…

  • Trakkers

    Some time has passed since I worked with WordPressDevelopment.com on this site for athletes using the Trakker GPS system, but I see the site has since gone live. This was a heavy customization involving a modified Geo Mashup 1.2 and ExtInfoWindow library. There are a lot of little visual treats awaiting visitors in the various…
