Site Revamp

Pervaiz Iftikhar is a professional portfolio website rebuilt to replace an outdated WordPress setup with a more modern, stable, and easier-to-manage foundation.

The original site was running on very old WordPress and PHP versions, which created compatibility risks and limited what could be improved safely. We rebuilt the site around the client’s preferred direction, keeping the color identity familiar while modernizing the overall experience.

Timeline

Challenge

The existing site had been built years earlier and was still running on WordPress 4.2 and PHP 5.6. This created serious compatibility and maintenance challenges, especially since some of the plugins in use were no longer supported or available in newer WordPress versions.

Beyond the technical risk, the site also needed a full structural refresh. The client wanted a more modern presentation while keeping the overall color scheme close to the previous version.

Solution

We approached this as a full rebuild rather than a simple update. The site was rebuilt using a custom Bricks-based setup, with the design updated to reflect the client’s preferred direction while preserving visual familiarity.

Unsupported plugins were replaced with cleaner custom implementations using MetaBox for structured content areas such as articles, testimonials, accomplishments, and gallery content. This gave the site a more stable architecture, better performance, and a foundation that is easier to maintain over time.
