Accent website study centers

The Accent website includes several different content types – from study centers and program samples to newsletters and blog posts. Thanks to custom post types, we were able to enhance the user experience in the WordPress admin so that the Accent team could manage each of these different types of content with ease.

Accent Content Types

Understanding the content types early on during the Information Architecture phase enables designers to clearly determine how they could be presented visually. This is crucial for websites like Accent’s that need to make it clear for their different audiences (students vs. partners) where they can find the information that matters most to them.
