Health Service - Fracture Template

  • Health Service - Fracture Template

    Posted 12 years 4 weeks ago
    • This behavioral health clinic web site is using the responsive design template, Fracture.
      This is my first use of one of RT's responsive design templates, and I love it!!!

      Website URL: advbh.com/

      Additional Extensions (Components, Modules, Plug ins):
      Components added for backend functions only
      Modules added: Roksprocket (mosaic and lists modes), RokNavMenu
      Plugins added: Asynchronous Google Analytics, see http://www.pbwebdev.com.au/blog/asynchronous-google-analytics-plugin-for-joomla

      Other Features: I really want to limit addons, and this was easy on this informational site. LOVED the roksprocket ease of use and features. Didn't notice I could add google analytics to template details until later, so didn't use.

      SEO was very important, so we created separate articles for key services.

      Any specific areas of my site that I'd like feedback on, if any:
      Visual appeal
      Ease of use on small devices, like smartphone
      Ease of identifying services this clinic provides
      Would like to remove or edit the author tag, can someone tell me how?
      Would like to get rid of white space in code (some type of compression), but now sure which is best to use with these most current gantry templates.

      Additional Comments: When I first saw the fracture template, I really couldn't think about how to use it. Then, later, when I looked again, I began to see possibilities. This client came already w/her logo and business cards, and the design was so clean, this template was a perfect fit.

      Suggestion: Read the blogs to understand more what modifications to make w/responsive templates (and remember to NOT add image dimensions to code when adding images).

    • Very nice web site although (you mentioned it already) I would recommend you to use template built in GA solution to reduce number of additional plugins even more

      Yes, I agree. The only 'fix' would be to have a very limited number (>=5) of top level nav choices, correct? It doesn't look great, but it does look OK, and the header is tall enough that it doesn't look wacky.

      The clients want all those choices as top level. Now, when they see it ~900 px, maybe they will reconsider. But, it still works.

      Henning ...in all your spare time, correct?! :cheesy: Actually - that is a very nice offer, thank you. Might be nice for a template update later, too.
