Website project retrospective: CMS publishing workflow (a multi-division group)

Context: Last week we reviewed multilingual website build with the client's IT lead. They care more about stability than buzzwords. We hit a case of a teammate accidentally deleting a channel. Troubleshooting started with logs on WeChat DevTools, then followed our reproduction steps. Next, we recommend to lazy-load homepage assets by route. If more features are added, scope the blast radius before scheduling.

Testing & Acceptance

This write-up is for colleagues progressing website and CMS work. The client is in logistics & warehousing, roughly about thirty people, based around free-trade zones. Editors know the CMS well enough, but role-based access control still needs a one-page rule sheet to cut verbal rework. Add a field dictionary to the docs so new joiners ask fewer repeat questions. This write-up is for colleagues progressing website and CMS work. The client is in home & building materials, roughly around fifty employees, based around North America. Editors know the CMS well enough, but product-site information architecture still needs a one-page rule sheet to cut verbal rework. Prefer a go-live window outside peak traffic, and prepare the rollback package early. This write-up is for colleagues progressing website and CMS work. The client is in education & training, roughly a dozen staff, based around economic development zones. QA walked the main path three times on real devices and flagged edge cases around inquiry form conversion path. Next, we recommend to document the reproduction path in a shared sheet. If more features are added, scope the blast radius before scheduling.

Delivery Approach

This write-up is for colleagues progressing website and CMS work. The client is in education & training, roughly a multi-division group, based around Europe.

Prefer a go-live window outside peak traffic, and prepare the rollback package early. This write-up is for colleagues progressing website and CMS work. The client is in logistics & warehousing, roughly around fifty employees, based around county-level cities. We hit a case of CMS image uploads over-compressed. Troubleshooting started with logs on approval workflows, then followed our reproduction steps. Archive screenshots and config change IDs for this mobile responsiveness round so next month's retrospective stays concrete.

Operations & Collaboration

Last week we reviewed role-based access control with the client's IT lead. They care more about stability than buzzwords. Business asked for a clickable prototype within two weeks, while engineering wanted to lock fields related to role-based access control first. Archive screenshots and config change IDs for this role-based access control round so next month's retrospective stays concrete. Last week we reviewed search indexing diagnostics with the client's IT lead. They care more about stability than buzzwords. Editors know the CMS well enough, but search indexing diagnostics still needs a one-page rule sheet to cut verbal rework. Add a field dictionary to the docs so new joiners ask fewer repeat questions.

Takeaways: The same requirement can sound different across departments; writing it down helps align decisions on brand site launch. We hit a case of captchas frequently failing to load. Troubleshooting started with logs on SSL certificates, then followed our reproduction steps. Prefer a go-live window outside peak traffic, and prepare the rollback package early.
