    Website

    Team 254′s website has been dramatically changed for the 2011-2012 season.  We are now running a custom-built theme on top of WordPress, an industry standard in content management.  WordPress is very extensible, allowing us to worry less about maintaining a content management system and allows us to focus on the presentation and content.

    • To achieve all of the features and functionality of the website, numerous custom-built plugins were created.
    • A custom WordPress theme was completely hand-coded by student team members to represent our team in accordance with our team identity standards.
    • The website layout and structure was designed from the ground up to be intuitive and easy to use.
    • Our website is full of content about our team and resources aimed at helping other teams.
    • A custom team member portal was created to facilitate inner-team communication and allow everyone to stay involved.
    • WordPress’ advanced blog functionality allows us to maintain both public and private blog posts, allowing us to document team progress while protecting competitive secrets during the competition season.
    • Team254.com is compatible with all major browsers including Internet Explorer (6+), Chrome, Safari, iOS, Android, Firefox and Opera.  Furthermore, there is a print-specific version of the site aimed at reducing ink consumption when the website is printed.
    The Team 254 Motto is “We Do Our Homework” and we have certainly done our homework in the creation of our new website, creating a tool to help our team keep in touch and provide resources for other teams to succeed.

    Old Team Websites

    Several of our old team websites have been archived and are still available for viewing.
