We’re trying to upgrade the site, here’s a few reasons for the upgrade
- The site needs to be refreshed, it has run in its present form for four years
- The current theme does not render well on phones and tablets
- Accessibility for visually impaired users is poor. This is my fault, I have a friend who has written a book on the topic!
- We have learned which pages attract visitors and which pages can be dumped
- The menu structure could be improved
- The banner picture in the current theme displaces text off page
- People cannot find the search function
- Can we (should we?) “splash” news to bring attention to news items?
- The site has been hacked historically and is full of junk
- We need to integrate better with Martyn Allen’s excellent archive work
