Publications

## Built for people who _publish daily._

Publishers need a site that editors can work in fast, that stays up when a story
takes off, and that keeps every archived article findable. WordPress powers newsrooms
of every size, and as a WordPress VIP Silver Agency Partner we build for the high-
traffic end of that range.

What we build

## From the editor’s screen to _the archive._

### Editorial workflows

Block editor layouts, custom fields and roles that match how your newsroom works.

### Multisite networks

Many titles on one platform, with shared components and local control for each publication.

### Archive migrations

Legacy content moved with authors, dates, tags, categories, media and redirects 
intact.

### Performance at scale

Caching, CDN and hosting set up for traffic spikes, on WordPress VIP or Infinite
Source.

### Memberships and paywalls

Subscriber access and member content, connected to your email tools.

### 󠀁[Accessibility](https://ip.ipdev2.cloud/services/web-accessibility-compliance/)󠁿

Templates built toward WCAG conformance, so every reader can get to the story.

Case study

## Carpenter Media _Group._

Carpenter Media Group acquired dozens of local newspapers whose sites ran on BLOX
CMS, which exports archives as ZIP files in the News Industry Text Format (NITF).
There was no complete, off-the-shelf way to bring NITF into WordPress.

WordPress VIP introduced Carpenter Media Group to Inverse Paradox. Ben Martin led
the development of a custom WordPress plugin built for NITF migration. It supports
multisite, imports keywords as tags, assigns categories and authors, keeps media
with the right stories, and generates 301 redirects for legacy URLs. The first three
sites were migrated within 90 days, and we trained Carpenter’s team to run migrations
on their own.

 * Bowling Green Daily News: over 210,000 articles dating back to 1997
 * The Valdosta Daily Times: over 215,000 articles dating back to 2005

“The combination of IP and WPVIP has been a rock solid one for us.” Kevin Cooper,
Senior Vice President & COO, Carpenter Media Group

FAQ

## Questions we hear _often._

Can you migrate our archive from a legacy CMS?

Yes. We have migrated hundreds of thousands of articles from BLOX CMS, and we plan
each migration around the source format, metadata and URL structure so nothing gets
lost.

Do you work on WordPress VIP?

Yes. We are a WordPress VIP Silver Agency Partner, and VIP introduced us to Carpenter
Media Group.

Will our old URLs still work?

We map redirects from legacy URLs to the new ones so links and search rankings carry
over.

Can our own team run future migrations?

For Carpenter Media Group we built the tools and trained their staff to run imports
themselves. We can do the same for you.
