Science Scholars website

As part of my senior project, I am building a website for the ONW Science Scholars. The website is a child theme of the school website, and will have a link to it on the main school website. It currently has little content, and I will be attending a Science Scholars meeting to brainstorm ideas for content for the website. Below is an image of the website right now, with the filler images and posts.



I am also waiting for the lodge and section officers to provide content that the section secretary requested from them. Once I get the content, I will be able to add even more content to the section website.

Recent updates for Section Website.

In the past week, I have done some major improvements to the Section C5B website. I started by adding in pictures of the lodge flap for each lodge, as well as getting images for each of the section officers. I also posted some filler posts so that I could see what they posts would look like when we roll out the full website. Below are some screenshots of my work so far.




In preparation for moving the entire wordpress website to another server (the official website host for the section), I have researched how I could move the content over. It looks like all I have to do is install wordpress remotely through ftp on the new server, then just copy over the wp-content folder to ensure all the content makes it to the new server. I don't know if this method will keep the current users I have set up, but that isn't a big issue to fix.

Order of the Arrow Section C-5B website

Recently, I have been working on a website for the Order of the Arrow, Central Region, Section C-5B. A section is made up of several lodges, and holds events such as section conclave, and section training events. Their current website is old and has not been updated in over 3 years. For the new website I am using a hosting service called DigitalOcean that lets me easily manage DNS and install Wordpress. I took a look at several other section's websites in the central region, and saw that two of them already had the same theme, so I decided to go with that theme (Zerif lite). Below are some screenshots of my what I have done so far.
