SBAC WordPress as a CMS

SBAC needed a scalable, powerful CMS to help them manage their constantly growing collection of content.

On their old site, their dozens of pages were becoming unmanageable. Their website also offers their visitors the option of filling out loan applications and related forms right on the website. This functionality obviously needed to be integrated into their new WordPress site. On top of all of that they also needed a site redesign to incorporate their new look and feel.

By creating a solid category structure, page hierarchy, and custom, CSS based flyout menu we were able to provide an elegant, intuitive and easy to use solution for navigating SBAC’s large (and continuously growing) amount of content.

To tackle the task of integrating their online applications we had to first create a secure environment (identity theft is usually a bad thing) and make sure all of the WordPress assets were being pulled in securely. Next we created some custom theme templates to handle the forms and error checking. All that was left was to create a custom administrative area for viewing and printing the applications and what was created was a highly custom, scalable, robust, and easy to use content management system.
