WordPress Theme Fix & Moosend Integration

A job portal client needed content fixes, UI/UX improvements, and marketing automation. Using Astra blocks, Moosend, and Mailchimp APIs, I redesigned key pages and set up seamless user onboarding with email workflows—boosting clarity, engagement, and campaign efficiency.

The Challenge

QuickEmployment.io, a growing job portal, approached me with a mix of technical and strategic issues. The platform was live, but several key internal pages suffered from poor content clarity, inconsistent user experience, and a lack of automated user engagement.

The client had two major concerns:

  • Content inconsistencies across various pages were causing confusion for new users.

  • The internal page layouts were bland and not aligned with modern UX standards.

  • They wanted users who signed up to be instantly funneled into their marketing workflows using both Moosend and Mailchimp—but had no integration in place.

Turning Limitations into Opportunities

Rather than overhauling the website with heavy tools, I chose to work within the Astra theme’s block-based ecosystem, ensuring the site remained fast, lightweight, and easy for the client to manage in the future.

The lack of integration with Moosend and Mailchimp became an opportunity to automate and personalize user communication, improving both marketing and onboarding processes.

My Solution & Tech Stack

Design & Content Fixes:

  • Audited and rewrote unclear or repetitive content across critical job-seeker and employer pages.

  • Used Astra’s native block structure to redesign and reorganize internal pages with better spacing, visual hierarchy, and CTAs.

API Integrations:

  • Moosend API: Connected user sign-up events with Moosend automations. Any user registering on the site now triggers predefined email workflows automatically.

  • Mailchimp API: Simultaneously added users to specific Mailchimp audiences for ongoing campaigns and segmentation.

Tech Stack:

  • WordPress (Astra Theme)

  • Moosend API

  • Mailchimp API

  • Custom Functions (PHP & WP Hooks)

  • Native Gutenberg Blocks

Results That Speak

  • 65% reduction in bounce rate on key internal pages after layout redesign.
  • Instant automation triggers now functional via Moosend, improving onboarding experience.
  • Streamlined user data flow into both Mailchimp and Moosend for better audience building.

What the Client Said

“Loopwisely really turned the project around. Not only did they resolve the content confusion, but they also set up complex automation with Moosend and Mailchimp—something we thought would require separate tools. The new internal pages are clean, fast, and user-friendly. Excellent work!”
