The Brief
Irananders is an association of scientists and policy experts dedicated to providing in-depth reports, policy analyses, and expert opinions on Iran. The client required a custom-built platform that would allow seamless content publishing, advanced search capabilities, and a highly interactive user experience. The website needed to support a growing database of reports while ensuring easy navigation and user engagement. Additionally, the website's design had to reflect a professional and authoritative image while accommodating various customization requests from the client.
The Challenge
The primary challenge was integrating multiple content management functionalities while maintaining performance and scalability. Irananders needed a robust content management system that could handle high volumes of news articles and policy reports without compromising on speed or user experience. The website also required an enhanced search mechanism to help users find relevant content quickly. Another key challenge was the customization of the comments plugin to ensure a well-moderated and user-friendly discussion system.
