Haley & Aldrich is a national firm who just built a new facility in Tucson, Arizona. Part of that was to install a 58-kV solar panel array over the parking structure. MoiaGroup created a kiosk that displays several movie clips, the live output of the inverter, and production charts from a remote web server.

A friend of ours heads up a great organization that helps fund scholarships for students in Honduras. We used the K2 theme and put together a website they can use to raise awareness and funds without having to struggle with Dreamweaver.

The Tucson Artists and Musicians Healthcare Alliance (T.A.M.H.A.) is an alliance of artists and art advocates dedicated to the sustainability and vitality of the arts community in Tucson, and they needed our help. MoiaGroup implemented a K2-based WordPress theme for them.

Eapps Hosting

eApps, who knew us from the many clients we’ve sent their way, called us and asked us to redevelop their logo and their website. We refined their existing logo and color scheme, and provided them with clean XHTML/CSS templates and flash files so their internal team could render them into their content management system.

WordPress wins CMS award

We’re not usually ones to take internet voting into account, but this seems significant:

http://wordpress.org/development/2009/11/wordpress-wins-cms-award/

“WordPress has been awarded the Overall Best Open Source CMS Award in the 2009 Open Source CMS Awards. This is a landmark for us, as it is the first time we’ve won this award, and it marks a shift in the public perception of WordPress, from blog software to full-featured CMS. No small contest, the Open Source CMS Awards received over 12,000 nominations and more than 23,000 votes across five categories.”

The Non-GMO Project Website Redesign

MoiaGroup has been working with the Non-GMO project for several years. This year we undertook a redesign of the website and an overhaul of much of the custom database functionality on the website.

The Southern Arizona Chapter of the Association of Fundraising Professionals needed a website they could maintain themselves. MoiaGroup created a WordPress theme for them, as well as a custom plugin to allow them to easily upload their member database from the dashboard.

The Center for Desert Archaeology

admin — Wed, 21 Oct 2009 00:44:58 +0000

The Center already had a design when they came to us for help. MoiaGroup turned their existing template into a full-fledged WordPress design, and did the necessary custom programming to bring along all their old proprietary custom PHP scripts.

MoiaGroup compares Drupal to WordPress

admin — Wed, 14 Oct 2009 17:06:54 +0000

Here at MoiaGroup we’re big fans of Drupal, and big fans of WordPress. They’re both amazing platforms to work with, and we’re lucky to have them around to build sites with. But which one is the best for any particular job? Too often the answer is made based on familiarity with the tool more than the tool’s appropriateness for the job. On October 14, Ian Johnson of MoiaGroup gave a two hour talk discussing the pros and cons of WordPress and Drupal, and talked about how to pick which one is best for any given situation. You can see video of the talk here (be warned, it’s unedited, and there may be some minor NSFW language.) We hope to post some written notes here soon as well. Until then, check out this older post.

Maynards Market

admin — Fri, 18 Sep 2009 00:43:12 +0000

Maynards Market already had a logo, but they needed someone to help them put together a website that would be easy for them to maintain in-house. MoiaGroup developed both their site and a site for a weekly event held there, “Meet Me At Maynards.” Both sites were optimized for performance at the request of the hosting provider.
