Client: Marie Kjorlien, Laird Salton
Date Created: May, 2011
TofinoBox.com allows residents of the sleepy Vancouver Island town to easily post local events and classified ads – all without the need for user logins and passwords.
Built on Drupal, the website was quickly rolled out in under three weeks. Since the client (who, I'll admit, is my sister and brother-in-law) live in Tofino, all communication to develop the site was done via email and Skype. The clients had a clear vision of what they wanted the site to eventually be, making the process move along very quickly.
The site also allows administrative users the ability to create their own events and classifieds, manage advertising, and view reports (clicks and views) on the ads.
TofinoBox utilizes the Sky theme, which I modified with the help of local Tofino designer, Jay Santarossa.
