Final Website Migrated, Plugins and Code Snippet Choices

Migration

I used Infinity/ifastnet for my site migration and the way that I done this was by using a plugin called Wp All in one migration which is used to import and export all things Wp. I exported my localhost Wp and then imported it into my migrated host Wp by installing Wp on my migrated host dashboard and then imported the Wp file from my localhost migration into my migrated Wp using Wp All in one migration.

This was the best and most efficient way for me to migrate my site. In terms of difficulties, I faced there wasn’t really any other then images not loading but to fix this I would re upload them on the migrated site.

Theme

I used the Esport X Gaming theme, and I chose this theme because my site is about showcasing games, so I thought it was fitting. The layout of the site looks good and simple which was the look I was going for and after customising it in the settings it looked great and I am happy with how it turned out.



 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Plugins

Antispam Bee: I used this plugin to control anything to do with comments on my site.

 

Converter for media: This plugin was for converting media into Webf and AVIF to increase site speed.

 

Smart Slider 3: This was for my images showcasing each game adding a nice slider for aesthetics.


Wp Statistics and Wp Optimize: These plugins were for showing off site statistics about the visitors on the site and the other plug in for optimizing my site making it faster overall.

 

 

Code Snippets

Protecting my site against malicious requests so basically for security purposes.

Automatic database optimizing used for optimizing my database.

Limiting trash to help keep my site clean.

  User Experience (UX) Explained for Best Practice Website Creation   Elements of User Experience I watched a very informative YouTube video called The Elements of User Experience the creators name is “Mitchell Eva UX” and he is a lead UX and Digital Product designer. This video went through 5 layers in user experience that help one another when forming a product, the five layers are Strategy, Scope, Structure, Skeleton, and surface.

Choosing a UX Based Concept for your CMS During this blog post I am going to discuss basic UX goals that I have researched and chosen to implement within my main website for CA2.   What I will build   The genre my website is going to be is on the entertainment side.   The result of this will be the showcasing of the latest video games and classic video games displayed on my site in an organised and fashionable way  using all sorts of different ux features along the way.   My first type of ux feature I will use is a comment plugin that will deal with any spam users try to make towards the comments on the site and will not allow any vulgar language to be posted in the comments section on the site  which is very helpful especially when we are talking about gaming and how people have strong opinions on things.   The second type of ux feature I will use is high quality images and videos around my site so different video games showcased will have image sliders and videos
