I’ve helped Stavanger Golf Club through the years with webdesign and admin, and it was due for a refresh.

I decided to try a no-code approach with WordPress. I first designed the site in UXPin (see version here), and then installed a fresh Local install of WordPress to get started.

I used Astra theme along with Elementor as the page builder. The header and footer was built in the WordPress customizer, and the front page was built with Elementor. All inner pages are built using Gutenberg blocks.

Apart from a few lines of custom CSS in a child theme, there was no code used! A very good process to first design the layout in UXPin, and then build a no-code version on top of WordPress.

My home sim and gym room. Some comments say a bar is missing…

In 2007 I sent an email which led to something big. I recently did a podcast with Mark and Adii, my two co-founders of WooThemes & WooCommerce. We chat about how a bootstrapped lifestyle-business developed into WooCommerce and what we are up to these days.

The show was hosted by BobWP who does «Do the Woo» podcast.

A lot of nice family time during these Corona times.

Family trip to London and Windsor.

From Ølberg Strand. Taken with iPhone 11 Pro wide-angle and given some Lightroom fixes for sky effect.

Serves as our daily workout area and golf simulator for game nights and winter practice.

Bikefinder is a startup that I’m and advisor and investor in. They are making an integrated GPS tracker for bikes with a sim card, so you can track it anywhere via web or app.

The online store was setup on WooCommerce using the Storefront theme, and I made a new custom design for it. Instead of using Photoshop like I normally do, I was recommended UXPin, which is pretty remarkable tool for making fast mockups or detailed designs for web and mobile.
