After everything has been changed after crit, my site is now pretty much finished. The only thing left to sort is my social media feed. I have chosen to use twitter in order to keep it simple, but unfortunately as my site has been made by myself i have no twitter to add to it. For this i will use my personal one and hope that it will be acceptable.
The first task was finding a plug in that would support a live social media feed. The plug in i've found is Social Media Mashup, it fully supports twitter, just needs certain codes in order to access the live feed.
The codes are easy enough to get through the twitter management apps site, giving consumer keys and secrets after logging it.
I can add it via a widget to my page and should be able to see the live twitter feed.
You also need to add the twitter id to the plugin settings page in order to view the feed.
But unfortunately it would not update for a very long time, after a few work arounds it seems to be working now and looking good.
All thanks to this plug in i now have a live feed on my page.
Now that finishes all the additions to my site, with the new header and images that work through all the links i think i'm ready for submission.
