Allowing users to extend WordPress with custom plugins and themes is a major benefit because with these avenues available to us, our only limit to what we can produce is our imagination…

Testimonial

Loprest hired Ryan to upgrade our company’s website. He took an old static brochure format one and made it an active dynamic one. It now has multiple pages and easy to follow links throughout. He took our pictures and put them into a creative format. Salesman no longer have to carry brochures, everything is on the website. Our site now exceeds our competitors. I have recommended Ryan to other business owners.

— Randy Richey, President, Loprest Water Treatment Company

It has been such a pleasure working with Ryan. Not only is he a brilliant developer who comes up with solutions without making excuses, he is very timely with when he says he will deliver the project. From a designer’s standpoint, its so refreshing to work with a developer who will pay such close attention to detail and stay true to the comps. Ryan is a great communicator and really cares about making his clients happy. I highly recommend him!

Circle Dog Media has worked with Ryan on a number of WordPress sites over the past year. He is always reaching to better his skills and it has shown over the course of these projects. His dedication and commitment to getting the job done right is something he can be proud of. And I look forward to working with him again.

  • Otto Williams Design

    This site was a custom WordPress theme. Major modifications included implementing a jQuery slider with mouse-over hovering, custom slideshow built from the Cycle plugin, and an adaptation of the Coda Plugin for the post areas to paginate. All content is editable by client via ‘panels’ in the visual post editor.
