The Project:

To design a RSS driven MailChimp Template; Steph and Katee wanted to update the design of their existing MailChimp template and aggregate blog post images amongst the post content from their WordPress RSS feed.

Problem is WordPress doesn’t always automatically include images in its feeds so I had to source, install and modify a plugin to enable this to happen. In addition I had to create a custom image size within their WordPress Theme’s functions.php to ensure all imported images were the correct dimensions.

This was a challenging project with all the additional research and WordPress modifications required, but very advantageous to learn.
