Hi @Mahboob,

We look forward to continuing to work with you.'

As we move forward, I would like to change the way we go about these projects.  We'd like to get into more of an ongoing development process with you. 

1) Work together on a plan of approach.  

I would like to get an outline on how you are going to approach a project before you start the project.  Essentially we want to get VeteranLogix's plan of attack for implementing the project, including the tools or coding approaches you plan to use. This way we know that we are all going in the same direction.  

For example, let's say we ask for some design changes to our home page. If your guys say "we'll make the changes in Elementor" then I can speak up and say "please do not use Elementor because it won't work with other functionality on the home page." This will save us all time in the end.  

2) Provide more documentation.  

Ask your guys to document what they are changing in the code.  So for example, let me know what files your guys change and if it is a big file, where in the file they changed it.  This will help me with integrating the changes into the live site.  

Redmine has places for documentation, so it will be very convenient to use that system to document things. 

3) Strive for more consistent quality.

For instance, when we saw the archive template created in Elementor it looked great!  However, when we started working on it to create the first page, we noticed a few things. Some style changes were not universal.  Font sizes and colors and element spacing.  So our team ended up having to change the elements all manually.  

For a template, we expected all to be applied as default/universal elements.  That way our team can drop in the content.  

It cost us several hours of extra work to check over and change every element to be consistent, and then I had to save those as default elements and revise the template. 

If you have any questions on this, please let me know.  But if this works for you, then Anita said she will put in a couple of new projects into Redmine for your team.

Thank you.
