Susan Glaspell Society

Previously hosted at academic.shu.edu/glaspell, the site for the society dedicated to research on this early 20th Century feminist author and playwrite needed a makeover.

Built on the Expressions Web platform, it had become a tangled nest of code that was very, very difficult for the webmaster to manage. The resistance level was high enough, in fact, that updates simply weren’t getting made.

A day spent porting over into a new WordPress site the old content, building categories and menus, and a new Cape Cod-themed masthead, and it is now ready for new content to be quickly and easily incorporated.

The content is arranged into a multi-level structure by type and by year; performance records of the author’s plays are arranged by title as well.

The new site is here, and it makes me want to get some of her books out of the library.
