This is the presentation for the Singapore WordPress user group meetup on 14th Nov 2012 at Central Library. The topic is about WordPress Theme Framework and Responsive Design.
This document introduces web standards and accessibility. It discusses how Jeffrey Zeldman and the Web Standards Project advocated for standards to make websites more accessible, compatible across browsers and devices, and sustainable over time. The document explains key standards like XHTML, CSS, and DOM that separate website structure, style and behavior. It also outlines why standards help with accessibility, device independence, performance and more. Finally, it provides an overview of different types of disabilities that standards aim to support, such as visual, motor and cognitive impairments.
The document discusses making your own CSS framework to manage multiple websites with limited resources. It recommends starting with a CSS reset, basic structural elements, and columns for layout. Future-proof the framework to match HTML5. Keep colors, images, and styling out of the framework. Build reusable widgets and allow for design freedom and individuality across sites. The initial version may be too constricting without flexibility. Add optional "flare" like boxes and slideshows once the basics are established. The framework should be easily upgradable and accessible across managed sites.
This document summarizes the history and development of the Bootstrap theme for Moodle. It discusses how the theme was originally developed during a Moodle conference by several developers. The Bootstrap theme was later adopted into the Moodle core as the "bootstrapbase" theme in version 2.5. The theme allows other themes like "Clean" to be built upon it. It provides templates and styles based on the Twitter Bootstrap framework to help developers create interfaces without design skills. Future development of the Bootstrap theme for Moodle includes improved styling for editors, accordion layouts, course progress indicators, and search functionality.

This workshop is perfect if you are a beginner or still on the fence. We'll look at the major issues you should consider before diving into the WordPress waters.
Not everyone can afford to have a custom designed theme for their WordPress website. Often we have to resort to the themes that are available for free or cheap. But how do we avoid having the website look the same as everyone else’s who used the same theme? I will show you how to take the most common WordPress.org themes and turn them into the unique look you want. Google Chrome or Firefox recommended. No coding knowledge is required, but you will learn some basic CSS.
