Andalucia Diversity Alliance: a trilingual website for a non-profit

andaluciada.es is the website of Andalucia Diversity Alliance (ADA), a non-profit association in Andalusia that helps newcomers settle in. One thing to know up front: George Barbu, who founded InfoWebPlus, is also ADA's president, and the site names him as Founder and President. This is not an arm's-length client job. InfoWebPlus built the site as ADA's technology partner, replacing an old WordPress site made from a template with a custom theme in English, Spanish and Romanian.

The client

Andalucia Diversity Alliance describes itself as a non-profit association that works on inclusion, community collaboration and access for people from many backgrounds. As checked on 11 November 2026, its site offers:

• a home page that explains the association, with a hero, its three values (intercultural, civic engagement, equity and inclusion) and a short video;
• guides for life in Andalusia, written for newcomers;
• a page for the board and a page with the full statutes;
• a contact form, a volunteer sign-up form and a partners and sponsors page with its own inquiry form;
• English, Spanish and Romanian versions, with a language switcher.

The figures ADA shows about its members and interactions are its own statements, and we do not repeat them here.

The challenge

We audited the old site on 7 November 2026 before changing anything. The main problems were practical ones:

• the Romanian home page did not exist, and the Spanish page was written in English;
• about 35 demo pages from the original template were published, and the sitemap listed 49 pages for a small association;
• analytics ran without a cookie consent banner;
• the home page carried a 59 MB video.

The new site had to fix those, keep every legal text exactly as it was, and work as three complete sites, not one site with two partial translations.

What we built

• A custom parent and child theme. The parent theme holds the code and the child theme holds ADA's own changes, so updates do not overwrite them. Colors and fonts come from one set of design tokens in TypeScript, and the theme is built from them.
• Three full languages. Each language has its own home page, menu and forms, connected with Polylang and with hreflang tags. An automated check fails when the three language files do not have the same keys.
• A guides section. Guides are their own content type with their own categories, separate from the blog. The first guide, on learning Spanish in Andalusia, is published in all three languages with an on-page contents list, and the home page shows the latest guides.
• Forms that fit a cached site. Contact, volunteer and partner forms send email through WordPress, and a hidden field and a rate limit keep spam out without a nonce, so pages stay cacheable.
• The statutes, word for word. The statutes are published in all three languages with the legal text unchanged. We compared them line by line with the old site: 366 lines, none missing.
• One visual look. The colors come from the gradient in ADA's logo, and the shapes from the horseshoe arch and tile patterns of Andalusia. Every photograph was graded to the same warm look, and the only photographs of people are the board's own portraits.
• A lighter, quieter page. The intro video went from 59 MB to 6.3 MB. The theme uses no jQuery, serves its fonts itself and runs no advertising or analytics trackers, which its cookie notice says plainly.
• Structured data. The site describes ADA to search engines as an NGO in JSON-LD, with breadcrumbs.

Stack: WordPress, Polylang, a custom parent and child theme in PHP, TypeScript design tokens and GitLab CI.

Where it stands

The site is live in three languages and was checked on 11 November 2026. We do not publish traffic, volunteer or donation figures, because we do not have numbers we can back up. A second ADA-related project is VacantaInSpania.ro, an independent InfoWebPlus product that works with ADA on community initiatives: VacantaInSpania.ro: a map-first guide to Spain in Romanian.

What a business can take from this

• Audit before you rebuild. Reading the old site page by page found missing pages, demo content and a heavy video that nobody had listed.
• Treat each language as a real site. A home page, menu and form for every language, plus a check that fails when one has gaps, beats a translation plugin that fills in what it can.
• Keep legal text verbatim. Move it, do not rewrite it, and compare it with the original so you can show nothing was lost.
