Project Details
The John Howard Society of Ontario’s Visitation Guide needed a digital transformation. From PDF to informative WordPress web application, we built them a custom tool to make their client’s life easier.
Specifics.
– New WordPress website allowed custom development while allowing the client easy content management
– Worked with GOCACTUS Design Inc to translate bulk PDF content into a searchable, easy to navigate web app
– Custom WordPress block plugins created to make use of the block editor
– Custom data modelling completed to tailor application functionality

Case Study
The Problem
JHSO’s Visitation Guide existed as a static PDF, making it difficult for users to search, navigate, or engage with critical information — especially across devices or accessibility needs.
The Solution
We collaborated with GOCACTUS Design Inc. to transform the guide into a modern, searchable WordPress web application.
Through custom data modeling, block-based content tools, and a tailored CMS interface, we delivered a scalable platform that’s easy for JHSO to maintain and update.
The Benefit
The new tool improves access for clients and service providers alike, turning complex institutional content into an intuitive and inclusive digital experience — while giving JHSO full editorial control.
