The Sagamore Hills PTA has a website at sagamorehillspta.org to serve the Sagamore Hills Elementary School community. There are other Sagamore websites too. Email the Sagamore Online mailing list to discuss.

It is a Wordpress installation with Dreamhost managed by Vera Kornylak, Dave Barker, and whoever else wants to join in.

To Do

  • Look into Wordpress new themeing --Dave (talk) 11:40, 2 February 2013 (EST)
  • Link to the Constant Contact provided webpage for weekly newsletters instead of copy & pasting them onto the PTA homepage. --Dave (talk) 11:31, 2 February 2013 (EST)
  • Suggest adding a newsletter signup opportunity to homepage (Contact provides code under Contacts, Grow My Contact List) --Dave (talk) 17:33, 3 February 2013 (EST)
  • Remove the ability to leave comments on PTA website pages—the site is not a blog to host discussion, it just disseminates information. Instead, make sure contact information is readily available on all pages. --Dave (talk) 11:16, 2 February 2013 (EST)

Accounts

Several accounts are associated with managing the website.

Wordpress

The Wordpress site has a single user, admin, assigned Dave Barker's email address*, with the password known to both him and Vera Kornylak. Most website work will be done using this account by logging into the site.

* Since passwords may be sent to the account email address, it's not appropriate to use the PTA online group email address.

Log

The log account, is used to view website-access statistics.

Server
