San Diego Law Library Foundation: An ACF Custom Website with AI-Powered Features, Accessibility and Consent Built In
Custom WordPress website on ACF Pro for the San Diego Law Library Foundation, the 501(c)(3) that has funded San Diego's free public law library since 1961.

01
The challenge
The San Diego Law Library Foundation supports one of the county’s most important access-to-justice resources: a free public law library open to everyone. Its website had to inspire donors, sell out the annual Witkin Awards Dinner and explain the Foundation’s six decades of impact, while being easy for a small volunteer-driven team to keep up to date.
As an organization dedicated to equal access to the law, the Foundation also needed a site that was accessible to every visitor and transparent about data, with real choices over cookies and tracking rather than a token banner.

What I did
The X Concept built a fully custom WordPress website on ACF Pro, engineered around content the Foundation can manage itself and features that put visitors first.
- Custom ACF page builder: Reusable, structured blocks for heroes, stats, galleries, honorees, sponsorship levels and calls to action, so staff can build and update pages without touching code.
- AI-powered features: AI-assisted functionality built into the site and the editing experience to help visitors find information faster and help the team produce and maintain content.
- Witkin Awards hub: Dedicated pages for the annual dinner, current and past honorees, sponsorship levels and event photo galleries, with ticketing through Zeffy.
- Donation flow: Donate calls to action throughout the site connected to DonorPerfect, plus Other Ways to Give and sponsorship pages.
- Built-in accessibility panel: Visitors can adjust line and letter spacing, switch to a readable font, highlight links, enable high contrast or grayscale, stop animations, enlarge the cursor, use a reading guide and strengthen focus outlines, alongside a skip-to-content link.
- Privacy and consent management: A consent manager with Necessary, Analytics and Marketing categories, Reject All, Save Choices and Accept All options, and choices remembered for 12 months, linked to the Privacy Policy and Terms.
- Engaging, fast design: An autoplaying library video hero, impact stats and photo galleries, with Cloudflare protection and Google Site Kit analytics.
