The client
The Times and The Sunday Times travel section publishes destination guides, features and holiday deals for one of the UK’s best-known newspapers.
The brief
The travel site needed to combine the paper’s editorial with content from travel providers, in a WordPress theme that could keep pace with the newsroom.
The build
I worked on the travel website as a WordPress developer on a contract in London in early 2016. The work centred on a Bootstrap-based WordPress theme and on pulling in content from various travel APIs, using the WordPress REST API to connect the site with other systems.
The section has since moved to thetimes.com/travel.
