“By Kevin Gray”, For Kevin Gray

by Brandon Houston

By Kevin Gray (www.bykevingray.com) is a recently launched website for an American magazine writer.  Kevin’s work has been featured in numerous magazines and has taken him around the world.  Logix has been working on the programming alongside Kim Eddy who handled the design.  The site itself is fairly simple and easy to navigate, featuring Kevin’s past magazine articles, biography, and a blog.

The real power of the site is in it’s back-end.  Every page is managed by a custom Wordpress installation.  The unique setup of the Stories and Publications pages allows Kevin to manage each category on a single page, upload the PDF of his article, and insert the rollover images that appear to the right of each article name as you pass your mouse over them.  The site is also set up to allow pagination on the article pages so the client is able to show 6 articles at a time on each page.

It was a fun little project to work on and allowed us to show again how versatile Wordpress can be as a content management system.
