For those of you with relatively recent websites based on the Divi template, I will be in a position to offer an upgrade to your site to change the branding once HSUK have launched the new branding. HSUK have been in touch and shared materials with me, and I have updated a copy of one site and have a feel for what is involved. The following is indicative, but not cast in stone yet, but I think I will be able to offer something like this.
For Divi based Home-Start sites only:
- Change of logo to the new format where it exists in the header, footer space and within pages. It is out of scope to change all old news items
- Change of colours within the site to the new colour scheme. Affects all pages, header and footer space. Old news items featuring the old colours will be out of scope.
- Addition of a colour palette into the template so whatever you are doing or editing the correct colours are always available to you
- A set of new images provided by Home-Start already prepared for web use and added to the library and available to you to refresh imagery where appropriate.
- Revised slider set with alternative images
- Buttons and formatted areas within your site which use the old colours will be changed to the new set
- A set of preformatted buttons, blocks, quote boxes, accordion and other elements will be built and added to the library in your site, so you can construct your own pages based on elements that follow the new colour scheme.
- A set of new HSUK graphic elements will be added to the library so you can use them in layouts and news items.
Costs
Costs will be based on time, and time is ultimately based on page count because the more pages there are the more items need to be reviewed and changed.
For sites with 15-20 pages: £65
For sites with 21-30 pages: £80
For sites with 31+ pages: £100
Within this work I will also check and if necessary change the contact form if you are still using an old unsupported one. If you did not go through your site from a GDPR perspective, I can look at that too and provide some additional guidance.
I will firm up on this by the end of April, and it will be available to all Home-Starts in May 2019.
I anticipate that subject to workload I will have a new design for Home-Start sites in the June timeframe for any new groups seeking a refresh who are not Divi based. I will also continue to offer the current template revised to the new colours and logo for those interested. So there will be two versions later this year.
