Website Technical Updates

Project details

What we need
  • Updates and/or fixes to Organization’s existing website (e.g., bug fixes, plugin or widget integration, etc.)
  • Training for up to 3 Organization staff members on how to resolve minor issues going forward (if applicable)
Additional details

Coding help to fix broken backend editing formats. Possibly issues with WPBakery Page Builder?

What we have in place
  • We currently have Wordpress site and login information, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have a staff member who can help get you started, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $3,757 , allowing us to use staff time for other projects and recovery from the loss of our office in a wildfire.

Streamlining our Wordpress site will make it easier for staff without web development skills to update the website.

Our mission

Sierra Streams Institute is a watershed monitoring, research, and restoration group based in Nevada City, California, in the Sierra Nevada foothills. Our mission is to link water, science and people for the benefit of human and environmental health. Founded in 1995 as Friends of Deer Creek, SSI has grown to become an important voice in the regional scientific community--but we are still proud to call Deer Creek our home watershed.
