Well, this should be an interesting journey! I have about 3 weeks of WordPress experience under my belt and have gotten the basic infrastructure of Lectron.Info in place. More features will be added as I get more familiar with the WP platform and the wealth of plugins available which put the power into the content creators without requiring a deep coder knowledge base 😉.
Today I was able to get the ‘Contact the Curator’ email function working with Lectron.Info registrant Frank J. giving it a test earlier this evening. All seems to be well.
I was also able to devise a custom widget that showed only certain meta fields of information. This was valuable for ACL controlled pages.
The next big step is developing the overall menu structure for the site. Still pondering what the best way to do that is given the wide variety of information that I have to present. Multiple vendors over 53 years, many different models, Lectron Luminaries (those individuals who over the years have ensured the viability and excellence of the Lectron System since 1966 until now), Lectron System care tips, and perhaps most importantly the Lectron System history.
Lots to do but I think that the effort will be worthwhile. I am very grateful to the Lectron System aficionados who are offering suggestions on how to improve the Lectron.Info site.
Thank you to all!
Michael
1. All pricing lists for LectronMW era now on the documentation page.
2. All Braun model pages completed.
Progress continues! More pages have been transferred from the legacy Lectron.Info website. Document downloads feature has been added for each major Lectron System reseller. News items added and many forum topics created thanks to Belgian Lectroneer Frank De Jaeger.
Thanks so much to all the Lectron.Info visitors. Why not register and become a Lectroneer?
Your curator,
Michael Peters
The Deutsche Lectron, Egger Intro, Georg Greger, and Hartmut Birett pages have been completed! Multi media carousels abound!
All the pages are now intact in the menu structure. Now to put the flesh on the bones with the actual content.
The menu function has been added. Deutche-Lectron is the first completed page. Enjoy!
Media Carousel and Social Media widgets added.
Got the Lectron.Info Forum working on 2019-JUL-04. Another important feature to support the exchange of ideas about the Lectron System.
Please have a visit and start your own topic about your experiences and thoughts about the Lectron System.
Thanks so much!
Michael
