Citadel

Overview

Citadel refreshed 3 of its websites (Citadel.com, Citadel Securities, Citadel Technologies), looking to unify the branding across all three. I built a WordPress backend that allows the theme to be used across multiple sites but allows different content managers access to only their content. Because of Citadel's position in the financial industry, they preferred a set of static site templates to host the site to reduce vandalism by hackers. I worked with a developer to build a static export plugin that converted the WordPress pages into a static site and automatically deployed to their hosting server, all without leaving the WordPress backend. This allowed a content manager on Citadel's network to make website updates, but retain a higher level of security.
