War On Want
- World Pay integration plug-in
- Campaigning forms with MP lookup
- Integrated email capture and broadcast
Founded in 1951 War On Want have been at the fore front of the international struggle against poverty for over 50 years. We are delighted to announce the re-launch of their web presence on the open source Joomla platform.
The content for the website needed to be arranged from lots of material that had previously been available in other formats - such as PDFs and Word Documents.
We converted War On Want's old content management systems data to the Joomla CMS database as part of this project saving lots of manual re-entry of data. Key features of the project are:
- World Pay integration plug-in
- Campaigning forms
- Integrated email capture and broadcast
- World Pay, Shop and GA integration
- Custom developments
- Front-page Slide shows (reusable across site)
The World Pay plug-in for Joomla lets War On Want place any no of donations forms with custom codes (e.g. appeal codes) anywhere on the site.These can then be managed in the back-end of the site. Additionally, campaigning forms for taking action were a key requirement. These are fully customisable and templatable within the Joomla system and capture and send data as required. Along with this we also developed a unique component to Joomla - a related links component which allows easy management of related links between articles - previously unavailable in the Joomla core.
Tracking and performance of the site is done through Google Analytics which was also integrated into the War On Want Shop, donate pages, and World Pay payment provider.
