Dublin City Triathlon

June 4, 2010  |  Portfolio

Matt Coughlan, Race Director of Dublin City Triathlon, contacted me after seeing my work on IrishTriathlon.com and WicklowAdventureRace.com.

Matt wanted to upgrade the site to make it fresher/less cluttered and to tidy the info available.

The site already used WordPress (though it was a 4 year old version!) so I recommended keeping it on WordPress. I suggested a few themes from ThemeForest.net and Matt picked one out.

After tediously upgrading WordPress to the latest version (2.0 to 2.0.1, to 2.1, to 2.3, to 2.5, to 2.8 and finally to 2.9.2) I installed the theme and tidied up the historical data on the site (results and info going back to 1999). I also fixed a few typos and formatting issues I spotted.

Matt is happy with the site and retained me to fix any issues that arise in the run up to the triathlon on 29th August.
