Mountain Ventures

Mountain Ventures

Mountain Ventures needed a re-working of their existing website. As an organisation that  specialises in outdoor adventure, training, a team-building, from its base in the Wicklow Mountains, they wanted a website that could be easily updated by their staff without needing specialised technical knowledge. Here is some of the work I carried out:

  • Added ability for Mountain Ventures staff to edit their own web pages, without needing to hire a professional web developer.
  • Improved layout of site, updating it to use more modern web standards. This will make it easier to maintain in the future.
  • Improved look of the site, using CSS versions of menus instead of custom images.
  • Cleanup of the internals of the site, making future work much more straightforward and saving Mountain Ventures costs on any further work.

The site is in static HTML (as implemented by the original developer) and the user-editable portions are done using cushycms. The site itself can be seen here: www.mountainventures.ie


Bhí athchóiriú de dhíth ag suíomh idirlín Mountain Ventures. Mar eagraíocht a chuireann oiliúint eachtraíochta, neartú foirniúlachta, &srl, ar fáil óna bhunáit i Sléibhte Chill Mhantáin, bhí sé riachtanach go mbeadh suíomh idirlín acu a bheadh éasca a athrú. Rinne mé na hathruithe seo a leanas dóibh:

  • Thug mé an cumas d’fhoireann Mountain Ventures leathanaigh an tsuímh a athrú leo féin, gan cabhair ó fhorbróir idirlín.
  • D’fheabhsaigh mé leagan amach an tsuímh, ag baint úsáid as caighdeáin nua chun go mbeadh sé níos éasca é a athrú as seo amach.
  • D’fheabhsaigh mé íomhá an tsuímh, mar shampla ag baint úsáid as roghchláir CSS in ionad íomhánna saincheaptha.
  • Ghlan mé suas córas feidhmithe an tsuímh, chun go mbeadh sé níos saoire ag Mountain Ventures obair as seo amach a dhéanamh.
Forbraíodh an suíomh le HTML statach (ar an gcéad lá), agus cuireadh na réigiúin ineagarthóireachta i bhfeidhm le cushycms. Is féidir an suíomh féin a fheiscint anseo: www.mountainventures.ie
