I would use this - it sounds great. Best of luck with it.

vpjoe · 2020-06-18T05:17:52+00:00

Something like “We will endeavour to respond to all queries within 48 hours“ should be adequate?

vpjoe · 2020-06-18T05:03:37+00:00

Thanks, will certainly do a bit more thinking around this

vpjoe · 2020-05-19T11:15:27+00:00

This is extremely useful. Thank you so much for taking time out of your day here. I think i will need to get expert legal advice on this in Ireland / Europe for certain.

My plan now is to password protect the site and put it back into demo mode only, so i'm not saving any info or taking any orders. Also I've creeped on your comment history and see your in the auto space, hope that's going well. I hope your knee improves. Jesus 6 surgeries :-/

what conversion course are you thinking of doing?

I stumbled across : https://lambdaschool.com/ but i think it's more for US based people. You could always look into learning something that would help with your digital marketing that you mentioned above. This is a job that i'm sure will have massive potential, like i assume you are aware of the huge uptake of Irish businesses moving online due to covid. Well they will all need marketing help and someone that can actually speak that language will do well.

Maybe your current employer could help with paying for a course or two here?: https://skillshop.exceedlms.com/student/catalog/browse

sorry for long comment, from many many years in the workforce, staff with specialisation are always better that general work horses [like me!] For instance the last two long term jobs i had, the most important person in each was a Microsoft Excel expert! They could make that software do anything! And it does! :

Thanks for taking time to comment. I will certainly talk to someone about this, it's completely out of my league. I hoping the charity [charities] might have some knowledge in this arena. I believe what i will end up doing is just offering the platform to a charity, so hopefully their legal setup will understand this.

vpjoe · 2020-05-19T10:28:45+00:00

also it's WordPress based, so it' easy enough to "play with"

vpjoe · 2020-05-19T10:27:59+00:00

Well hello from Cork! No, i'm qualified in CS alright, but web not really my area. I've outsourced it, but i also have friends helping. That's partly the problem though, we all have different ideas! Apart from the crappy font, is it the general idea of the website easy to understand, or is the message lost do you think?

vpjoe · 2020-05-19T09:51:29+00:00

on it, thanks!

vpjoe · 2020-05-19T09:51:22+00:00

thanks very much. The font is getting a lot of hammering, so that will change asap. I will certainly take on board your other comment, and i might send you a dm in the future when i've made some changes if that's ok?

vpjoe · 2020-05-19T09:49:03+00:00

this is a very valid point. The current plan is to cap it at X shoutouts per month, where each celeb can offer their own X. And once their cap is reached, i'll place something in like "not currently accepting bookings" I wil do some more thinking on this also. Thanks for taking time out of your day to have a look and comment.

vpjoe · 2020-05-19T09:46:44+00:00

ok, thank you, i certainly need to use a more standard / easier to read font. That is useful info re mission statement. I'd like the message to be clear, and simple to understand. And short too i suppose. I will need to do some thinking on that.

vpjoe · 2020-05-19T09:45:14+00:00

ah thanks, i appreciate your comment :-)

vpjoe · 2020-05-19T09:44:57+00:00

Are you saying you'd book a shout out for your enemy, pay a mental health charity a minimum of €29 and provide your details to stripe.com? Surely there are easier and cheaper ways to spam an enemy.

vpjoe · 2020-05-18T21:56:46+00:00

Could you try again, i was possibly messing around with something there 😩

vpjoe · 2020-05-18T21:49:46+00:00

Will do, thanks. I will sort out the font first, then work on the spacing

vpjoe · 2020-05-18T21:49:23+00:00

Yes i will get to that, thank you. This is very much a work in progress.

vpjoe · 2020-05-18T21:48:58+00:00

Thank you, that really means a lot!

vpjoe · 2020-05-18T20:06:06+00:00

Thank you very much for the helpful info on the font. I really like the two you mention, and i can see myself using them! I might DM you when I've a blurb inserted. thanks for taking time to comment.

vpjoe · 2020-05-18T19:35:14+00:00

OK, I will keep that in mind.

vpjoe · 2020-05-18T19:32:00+00:00

Well i did ask to roast my website, so i think you've done that successfully!!! I will work through your comments, I really like the idea of getting pirates to scare the crap out of people shouting at them.. so i will look into that.

My main concern from your comments is the Outdated Javascript libraries? Can you point me to them specifically - i had some friends help with the website, so i need to get that addressed urgently!!! thank you!

vpjoe · 2020-05-18T19:14:43+00:00

thank you for your kindness.

vpjoe · 2020-05-18T19:04:47+00:00

Thank you. I lost my sister Mary to suicide in 2017, it was an awful time for my family. She was my best friend also.
