Modifying the customer supplied base theme, I cleaned up the UI/UX design so it would be easier for users to navigate both on a desktop and mobile device. Further customization of the theme was required to match the branding package as detailed by the client. Custom headers and footers were specifically implemented according to the clients request.
Booking System
The booking system was implemented and modified to better fit within the context of the business. A custom plugin was developed to automatically email the administrators with a class attendance list for each corresponding course.
Customizable Landing Page
The client desired to have a simple/clean landing page similar to treelink for their instagram and other social media platforms. The goal of this page is to allow users to have a quick shortcut to specific courses and other social media links such as telegram/facebook groups. This page had to be customizable by the administrator to promote different courses/workshops throughout the year.
Generate Class Attendance List
The client wanted to have a system that would automatically generate a class attendance list and email it to both the administrators and instructors. Each course/workshop has its own instructor and the system must have the ability to send the specified class attendance to the appropriate email address. The email would be sent with a generated PDF file. This attendance list PDF file is fully customizable and is populated directly from the database.
