New look coming!

Those of you who receive my newsletter or visit my website regularly will by now have seen our new look website.  This blog will be undergoing a similar change very soon so stay tuned.

The new look has been several months in the pipeline and this is partly due to research regarding membership software. I wanted my Virtual Assistant team to be able to login and update their own profiles as they wished and as has often been requested. Time to move on with current trends for membership sites.

Do you know I’ve been running a membership site since 1996?  Long before they became popular and before software had been developed for them. So I managed with Dreamweaver and ACT! and more recently, using Ning to manage members’ broadcast emails and jobleads as they came in.

So enter Wishlist Member Software which will open new possibilities I’m sure.  While the new look site is now in place I’m still working on the capabilities for members to log into the site and edit their own profiles but believe I’m very close to the mark now.  Things we’ve had to explore have included changing the properties for the roles in WordPress so that members can edit a page rather than just a post but a useful plugin has been located for that also.

Interesting isn’t it? You decide to make a change with a website and along comes with it a whole new learning curve and new tools to make that thing happen.
