Website improvements

Hi there,

i'll leave this open for the rest of the team, to see if they have an interest or recommendations.

But if you want to share the link, i would be more than happy to have a quick look over the site for anything regarding UI/Accessibility or any thing that stands out :)

Thanks :-)

Just some things i would consider:

1. The Site Header colors, The site tag line color is really low contrast, which makes it harder to read for vision impaired users. I would increase its contrast, maybe as a black color.

2. The sub menus have been narrowed to 128px ? Not sure if you added some CSS to change that ? But the default is 200px. If you haven't added CSS - then i would add the following to give them some more space:

.main-navigation ul ul.sub-menu {
width: 200px;
}

That will reduce the height of the menu list, making it easier to navigate.

3. The site has a fair amount of text content. Which looks great on a smaller device such as Portrait Tablet. On Desktop it has much wider paragraphs, which is not so comfortable to read. I would make it narrower. Options are:

a) Set the Customizer > Layout > Container Width to a narrower width. Which will affect the header and the footer as well.
OR
b) Create a Layout Element ( in Appearance > Elements ) and set the Content Width to a smaller size. 800px would deliver a nicer reading experience.

4. The Contact Form on the Contact page, has really small fields, check in the Form Plugins settings to see if they can be increased. Theres a lot if white space around it, so i would make the form fill that space.

Other then that, looks great !

Thanks ever so much for that David. I'll get those changes implemented and might ask you to see if I have executed them correctly. How much do I owe you?

For sure - make those changes, and ill take another look.
No charge - More than happy to give some pointers where i can :)

If you want to - we have a donate option found here:

That goes toward development costs.

Thanks !
I've made the changes you suggested. Not sure what happened with the sub-menu (must have been fat fingers I guess!)
I've made a donation using the link provided.

Looking great!

One thing that annoyed me was the Google Auto Placed adverts, they don't add any bottom margin to them.
If you want you can overcome that with this CSS:

.inside-article .google-auto-placed {
    margin-bottom: 20px;
}

OH... and thank you for the donation - thats really appreciated !!!

Thanks David, applied!
That is so much better after your suggestions!
You are most welcome. #lovinggeneratepress

Glad to be of help!!
