Project Description
New Lines Magazine came to us with a goal to enhance their website, offer exclusive content, and launch an Arabic version. We provided tailored WordPress solutions to meet their needs. Key Challenges Solved Website Design and UX Tweaks We conducted a UX audit and made necessary design adjustments to improve the user experience, especially on the post pages. Migration to a Dedicated Hosting Environment The site was hosted on a shared server. We migrated it to a dedicated WP Engine instance. This change resulted in faster performance and more reliable uptime. Google News Author Indexing New Lines Magazine wanted specific authors to appear in Google News. We clarified how Google indexes authors and resolved the issue to meet their needs. Subscription System Implementation We introduced a subscription system using WooCommerce. This allowed users to subscribe to both online and offline versions of the magazine. Arabic Version of the Website Launching the Arabic version of the website was a major task because of both technical and language challenges. We implemented right-to-left (RTL) text formatting and ensured proper integration of Arabic content alongside English. . Digitizing Historic Magazines The client also wanted to digitize old magazine issues. We developed a custom plugin to scan and import thousands of pages, making them available online. Custom Solutions Developed Custom Gutenberg Blocks We created custom Gutenberg blocks to present sophisticated content. These blocks allowed for sticky images and easy media integration. Custom Audio Player We developed a custom audio player that hosted audio tracks on their server or Podbean. Magazine Import Plugin To handle the digitization of historic content, we built a plugin that imported and managed scanned documents. Results Achieved Successful Arabic Website Launch We successfully launched the Arabic version of the website, providing a smooth experience for users in the region. Subscription System Success The WooCommerce system allowed users to easily subscribe to both digital and print content. This drew new revenue streams. Digitized Historic Content Historic magazine issues are now available online, offering valuable archived content to readers. If you're looking to transform your WordPress website, Xfive can help.
