The Women's Conference

Site purpose

Every year, 20,000 people attend the high-profile California Women's Conference, seen as the premier forum for women. Globally recognised politicians, business leaders, human rights advocates, sports stars, celebrities, artists, and musicians speak to motivate, inspire, and lead.

SilverStripe built the California Women's Conference website which not only supports the actual conference, but also acts as an online forum for women throughout the year.

What we did

  • We allowed content editors to manage Flash files with dynamic content from the CMS.
  • We gave site administrators high control over the sidebars and related content for different page templates.
  • We provided several video and image galleries which pull in third-party content and present it within the look and feel of the site.
  • We implemented visually compelling, complex templates.
  • We set up a discussion forum and blog.

What users can do now

  • Users watch hours of videos from past conferences.
  • Users engage in discussions with others through the site's forum.
  • Users subscribe to the email newsletter and forward a page or a Tip of the Day to a friend.
  • Users participate in online polls.
