      Practicum Report

      Darrensites.Pro Clients

      I was tasked to create documentation using Word for fourteen website clients for this company. I accomplished this in two parts. I was first given screenshots of all the plugins with each site and then later given all the pages and posts of each website. I had to include in the documentation the styles and branding elements with hex codes for colors, typography, and the logo. The company can now efficiently keep records of changes with a change log heading. This took me five hours.logo

      Learning WordPress

      Within my WordPress dashboard I learned the functionality of each object to manipulate my website: Posts- to create blog posts, Media- this holds the image library of the website, Pages- to create different pages, Comments- where I can check on comments that where given to a post, Projects- where I can make sample webpages, Appearance- I can design the theme that is loaded within the website, Plugins- I can upload, delete and update the plugins, Users- I can assign various people with special permission levels, LLA- Analytics of attempts to access the site without my permission, Tools- Here a can check on the website's health, Settings- This is for media upload sizes, permalinks, and engagement with subscribers, Divi Supreme Pro- Often a plugin will place a shortcut onto the dashboard. This one is an upgrade for the Divi Modules, Divi- the theme/page builder used on my website. This took five hours.

      I Purchased my Name

      It was suggested by my practicum facilitator, Darren Oates, to investigate whether my real name Dann R. Murphy, was unique and could be bought as my private domain. I made an account at GoDaddy.com and tried dannmurphy.com, and it was available. Using that domain, we created this website, which is editable, and I can create business pages to obtain clients or pages to acquire employment. This took two hours.

      Elegantthemes.com

      The page builder is implemented by uploading the Divi Theme as you would a plugin. Once installed, it gave me the ability to start a section and, within that section, a row and then divide the row into columns, one to two, three, and so on. Once columns are chosen, the availability of picking modules is assessed. This gave me the ability to place expressive elements such as this tab module You can view the many modules HERE. This took this two hours.divi modules

      New Landing Pages for NuVision Homes

      Implemeting the landing pages involved a client called NuVision Homes.
      This particular client wanted three landing pages, for Clarion PA, Ford City PA, and Kittaning PA. This involved duplicating the main home page in the Divi Builder and changing the title tags from "painter" to "house painter" to empasise that they paint houses rather than artistic painting, for Seach Engine Optimization. On each new landing page, there were four instances of the specific area that needed to be updated for each page. This took two hours.

      Client Acquisition Process

      To create a client acquisition process, Mr. Oates ran me through his first so I could get a feel to how this process should go. As of right now, I will be using a similar process to Mr. Oates since I am very new to the freelancing scene. This took 4 1/2 hours.

      My Hobby Page

      Creating this page was a bit more difficult since I was on my own, almost entirely. Thinking of what to put on that page was pretty easy, but figuring out how to display it wasn't. Originally, I wanted to upload the video directly to my website, but Divi wouldn't allow me to because the file was too large. So, I uploaded it to YouTube as a privated video and fed the link to Divi. All the other images were already drawn, by me, so all I had to do was upload those too. This took me five hours.

      My Portfolio Page

      To create my portfolio, I needed to do some work. Unfortunately, its not that easy. But Mr. Oates had an idea, in the WordPress backend, there's a Projects tab. In that tab, I could create singular pages where I could use the Divi Visual Builder and show that I know how to make websites of various kinds. This took me 6 hours and 25 minutes.
