Only Cool People Read
Only Cool People Read.com, the website for a non-profit organization created to help children get the resources they need to read, learn, and grow, uses a large amount of dynamic database driven content. Virtually every single bit of copy and imagery seen on the site is completely controllable from a password protected content management system.
Built using WordPress, OCPR has a teacher led blog coupled with a student driven community, where each kid gets the opportunity to use the PHPBB3 forum that is tied directly to their WordPress account, allowing them to seamlessly switch from posting topics in a thread, to blogging about the latest books or current events.
Closely managed by our team as well as the non-profit’s founder, Only Cool People Read connects, cultivates, and expands the students’ imaginations and outreach.
