Tract Association of Friends

Tract Association of FriendsThe Tract Asso­ci­a­tion is ven­er­a­ble Quaker pub­lisher dat­ing back to the early part of the Nine­teenth Cen­tury. They had a web­site but wanted a new one built with a con­tent man­age­ment sys­tem that would allow for eas­ier edit­ing. The new site is built in Word­Press. Befit­ting the organization’s ethos, the site is rel­a­tively plain but there’s a lot going on under­neath the surface.

Many peo­ple use the site to print out copies of the tracts. There’s a spe­cial print stylesheet–created by the tem­plate designer and cus­tomized by me–that means print-outs of these pages will be very clean and unclut­tered, per­fect for per­sonal pho­to­copy­ing. There’s the abil­ity to make tracts avail­able as PDFs through Scribd and there’s a inter­face in the Word­Press dash­board to allow embed­ding of these in the sidebar.
