Challenge
- Present multiple products with structured information.
- Allow non-technical staff to easily manage content.
- Provide a store locator for nearby retailers.
- Implement pixel-perfect layouts from Adobe XD designs.
- Ensure performance and scalability.
Solution
I developed a fully custom WordPress theme from scratch, translating the design team's Adobe XD layouts into a responsive and pixel-perfect implementation. The CMS architecture was structured using Advanced Custom Fields Pro and custom post types to allow flexible and scalable content management.
A Google Maps API integration powers the store locator feature, enabling users to easily find nearby retailers carrying the brand's products. Contact inquiries are handled using Ninja Forms, providing a reliable communication channel between customers and the brand.
