ELON – Project Coordination, Plugin Installation & Technical Support
Aruba Websites – Two-Day Implementation & QA Coordination
Work Type: AI-Assisted Project Coordination

- Contact and newsletter forms.

WordPress Premium Plugin Installation – Eight Aruba Websites
Work Type: WordPress Plugin Installation + Backup Verification
Processed four supplied premium plugin packages:
| Plugin | Version |
|---|---|
| ASE Pro | 8.0.6 |
| SureForms Business | 1.13.2 |
| SureRank Business | 1.8.2 |
| Schema Pro | 2.10.6 |
Installed the packages across eight Aruba websites.
| Website | New Installations |
|---|---|
| ArubaHappyHour.ca | 3 |
| DowntownOranjestad.com | 4 |
| DronePilotsAruba.com | 4 |
| PortCityAruba.com | 4 |

| SoldOnAruba.com | 4 |
| Total | 31 |
ArubaHappyHour.ca already had an active SureForms Business installation, which was preserved.
The newly installed plugins were left inactive.
Recovery backups and homepage, newsletter, and login-page availability checks were recorded.
Status: Thirty-one plugin installations completed. Licence activation, plugin configuration, and full functional acceptance remain separate tasks.
SureMail – Administrator Test Email Repairs
Work Type: WordPress Email Troubleshooting
Investigated a SureMail test-email failure on ArubaHappyHour.ca.
The issue was traced to the website’s existing no-send safeguard, which blocked outgoing email before SMTP delivery.
Applied a narrowly scoped administrator-only test exception to:
- ArubaHappyHour.ca.
- DowntownOranjestad.com.
- DronePilotsAruba.com.
- ArubaCasinos.ca.
The changes required administrator permissions and a valid security nonce.
Ordinary outgoing site email remained blocked.
Each administrator test returned the message:
Email sent successfully.
Status: Administrator test-email sending succeeded on four websites. Inbox delivery was not confirmed, and normal transactional emails remain disabled.
Aruba Newsletter – SureForms & SureContact Integration Guidance
Prepared instructions to connect SureForms newsletter submissions to the Aruba Sites workspace in SureContact.
The guidance covered:
- Correct workspace authorization.
- Email and name field mapping.
- Newsletter-specific contact lists.
- Source tags.
- Duplicate handling.
- Consent and unsubscribe preferences.
- Controlled submission testing.
Aruba Casinos – Consent Mapping Correction
Identified an incorrect integration mapping in which the newsletter consent checkbox was assigned to the contact email field.
Recommended preserving the Email-to-Email mapping and using a dedicated consent field where supported.
Confirmed the requested consent wording:
“I agree to receive the ArubaCasinos.ca newsletter. This does not subscribe me to other Aruba newsletters.”
Status: Configuration guidance provided. Final saved integration and successful SureContact synchronization were not verified.
Allen Mayer – Website Completion Communication
Website: https://allenmayer.ca/
Prepared a client completion email summarizing the supplied website changes.
The reported work included:
- Removing the About Us section.

Reported total work time: 3 hours and 37 minutes.
Status: Client email drafted from the supplied completion report. Delivery and client acceptance were not confirmed.
Canadian Obituaries – Separate 50-Post Publishing Report
Website: https://canadianobituaries.com/
Saved the supplied report documenting a separate 50-obituary publication batch.
| Measure | Reported Result |
|---|---|
| Target | 50 |
| New obituaries published | 50 |
| Duplicates skipped | 153 |
| Failed/unverified candidates withheld | 459 |
| Publication failures | 0 |
| Original photographs restored | 31 |
| Memorial fallbacks retained | 19 |
The report stated that all 50 saved-record checks and 62 desktop/mobile checks passed after the photograph corrections.
Eighteen fallback images were retained because the source notices did not provide portraits.
Clifford Oxner’s portrait could not be reliably verified.
The report also noted source-access and date-verification gaps that prevented guaranteeing the batch represented the newest notices across all approved sources.
Status: Publication and image-correction results saved as supplied. Independent publication verification was not performed in this reporting session.
Sixteen Aruba Domains – GeoDirectory Audit Preparation
Prepared a read-only audit prompt to determine whether GeoDirectory was installed and active on 16 Aruba websites.
The instructions required checking actual plugin installation status, version information, and any access blockers.
No installation or activation was authorized.
The same domain list was saved for future WordPress server site creation.
Status: Audit prompt and domain list prepared. No audit execution or server changes were confirmed.
Client Communication & Staff Coordination
Prepared task-related communications for:
- Maria’s Toronto Home Builders QA follow-up.
- Milan’s Aruba website implementation schedule.
- Nancy’s Presto Capture research and testing.
- Allen Mayer’s website completion update.
