Key Challenges
Missing Functionality
The client desired to implement the project bag feature on the website for user convenience.
Asset Management
Managing assets, like images and 2D and 3D files, proved challenging due to intricate details.
Configuration Complexity
Product configuration complexity at multiple levels hindered efficient management of settings and associations.
Category Import Challenge
Importing multiple products across various categories simultaneously posed a challenge on the website.
Our Solutions
Bespoke Integration for Project Bag Functionality
We tackled the issue by customizing design and development, seamlessly integrating the project bag feature into WooCommerce. Due to WooCommerce’s default limitations, this bespoke solution ensured smooth project bag functionality, enhancing user experience and site efficiency.
Asset Storage Strategy for the Upload Directory
To tackle this challenge, we chose to store all assets in the Uploads directory rather than directly in the database. This decision offers improved asset organization and management, alleviating undue pressure on the database resources.
Comprehensive Product Mapping Solution
Our solution involved mapping the products with their respective manufacturers and categories, encompassing all associated details within the mapping process. This ensured comprehensive management of product associations, manufacturer relationships, and category specifications.
Streamlined Excel Template and Rapid Upload Script
We provided the client with an Excel sheet template organized at the sub-category level, allowing them to fill in the necessary information. Subsequently, we developed a script capable of rapidly uploading the filled sheet, streamlining the process within seconds.
Our Approach
We adopted these strategies to improve website usability, offering users a friendly, efficient, and accessible interaction experience on the custom furniture manufacturing site.
