    • You didn't say Wordpress or Joomla ? Gantry 4 or Gantry 5?

      But you could do that in most of the template. In fact looking at the content it's so simple you could even do that in "hydrogen" template. If G4, I'd suggest Myriad. If G5 I'd suggest Galate - but you will have customisation to do with either.

    • Either Wordpress or Joomla is fine. I understand Wordpress is better for SEO...
      I like Gantry 5. it is more configurable. :)

    • Ok, so I would try joomla galatea which is G5. On SEO there's no real practical difference between wordpress or Joomla - you just have to use the right tools and configuration.

      They mentioned Yeost SEO and All In One SEO Pack.

    • Three of the most popular SEO tools for Joomla are: EFSEO, JoomSEF and SH404SEF.

      You can create that module on the right with anything you want, any module, page content particle, customHTML, whever you need you'll just probably also need to write some custom CSS to position it and style it.

    • Thank you Mark,

      We might need some custom work in the future.
      Do we contact individual people to get quotes or do we get Premier support?
      Can you lead me in the right direction?
      Thanks for all your help!

    • The best place to post when seeking a PAID developer is in the "marketplace" forum. Give as much information as you can with outline budget and timescale in order to get the most responses to your request. Premier Support is for support not customisation or development work (i.e. they will assist you in fixing an issue). RT doesn't undertake customisation work. If any of the moderators or developers are interested in the work they will respond in the "marketplace" forum.

    • Here is a dumb question: Where is the marketplace forum?
