Fill in your local details, preview the site, and download a ZIP ready for GitHub Pages.
Use when your local needs a simple lasting website members can bookmark.
Hero background
Start with a subtle pattern. Replace the file in the downloaded site later, or add your own photo below.
A wide landscape photo works best. Skip this if you are using a pattern.
Links from Brand Kit
No extra social or membership links in Brand Kit yet. Add a group, Instagram, or a join form there if you have one, and they will show on the site.
Names marked in Org Chart fill this list. You can still edit them here before you download the ZIP.
To update a site you already downloaded, import the site file from that ZIP. Colours and extra links in the file apply here only — they do not change Brand Kit.
Already on WordPress?
UnionOps does not support WordPress. Use this only if someone already runs your WordPress site. If you are starting from scratch, download the site ZIP instead — we cannot help with WordPress hosting or updates.
Squarespace does not accept a custom theme ZIP. There is no Squarespace export. If you already use Squarespace, rebuild the page in their editor.

External resources cited in this guide. National and government URLs often move; if a link 404s, search from that organization’s home page. OPSEU / SEFPO pages on opseu.org may block automated checks — open those links in a browser before you share them in a workshop.
Live example local site built by Local 243 volunteers (local243.org redirects here). The Website Template tool is a simplified, parameterised version of this GitHub Pages site.
Free static site hosting used by the exported website ZIP. No server or database required.
National About hub. Graphics downloads move when the national site reorganizes — Brand Assets on this site mirrors logos and colour specs.
