Rivertown Film Society is a non-profit that shows independent films.
FSI built a robust CMS in WordPress that allows films to be entered, so it shows upcoming films, including custom fields and taxonomies to track genre, director, actors, year made, country, trailer links, online ticket sale links, etc.
Other custom post types include sponsors, partners and events.
The site is built with Studiopress’ Genesis framework.
Nassau County Soil & Water Conservation District (SWCD) is a state funded not-for-profit and is part of a network of 3,000 disctricts nation wide. It educates the community on how to protect the area’s soil and water resources.
FSI used a modified child theme of the Genesis framework from Studiopress.
The site includes many CMS features such as a section for Staff and Board members to upload restricted files, many custom post types such as events, educational activities, projects, etc.
WordPress seems limited with the way it handles images (media). I don’t see why it can’t be part of the taxonomy like posts and pages since it is stored in the wp_posts table.
A media item is “attached” to a post if it has a value in the post_parent field. It can only be attached to one post.
If you have a gallery in a post and need to move them the only way to do it is via sql in the MySQL db.
Here is the sql to update in bulk media records to a new “parent.” You need the post ID for both the post you are moving from to the one you are moving to….
update wp_posts t1 set t1.post_parent = 713 where post_parent = 444 and post_type = ‘attachment’
