Newcastle Web Design Funding »
We are pleased to announce that Peacock Carter is now listed on the North East England Service Provider Register, which means we can help local businesses access funding via Business Link North East for projects involving consultancy and knowledge transfer!
Web design improvements »
In between a few of our bigger projects, Richard has been working on some web design improvements for some of our existing clients with website maintenance agreements.
There's nothing seriously wrong with the current designs these websites use, but as the content and information contained within them changes, Peacock Carter feel it is appropriate to improve the websites design to better reflect the new information.
Modules for Toucan CMS™ »
One of the great things about Toucan CMS™ is that it is a modular Content Management System. This keeps the core system light and simple, and doing only one thing: content management.
Selling online with Drupal e-Commerce »
I mentioned earlier about my second book, Selling online with Drupal e-Commerce, and how it was available for pre-order. Well, it is now published, and I received my author copies yesterday!
Peacock Carter v2 »
If you've been checking back on our website over the past few weeks, you'll have noticed (hopefully) the new design for our website, and that we've moved in to new offices in the Design Works centre in Gateshead, near Newcastle. Michael and I dubbed this 'Peacock Carter v2', since it's a new era for the business. That, and we're really sad.
Improving Our Development Process »
We have some really big news to anounce shortly, but we are waiting for a few other key things to come in to play before we make the announcement. Until then, I thought I would provide a post about some improvements I have been making to the development process here at Peacock Carter.
Selling Online with Drupal e-Commerce »
I’m pleased to announce my second book is now available for pre-order! Selling Online with Drupal e-Commerce guides you through setting up an online store using Drupal’s e-Commerce module, while discussing various ecommerce concepts along the way. www.packtpub.com/drupal-ecommerce/book.
We offer ecommerce and online shop development if you'd rather we did the hard work.
PHP 4 Support »
We are officially dropping support for PHP 4 in our products. This is something we have wanted to do for some time, however one of our larger websites runs in a controlled hosting environment for various reasons, which had to run PHP 4, this has now been upgraded to PHP 5, and so we can officially drop support for PHP 4.
