Homepage & Collection Page – Product Slider with Variant Preview

A custom product slider section was implemented using Slick Slider, featured prominently on both the homepage and collection pages. This dynamic slider showcases products from a specific collection, with each product displaying a secondary variant thumbnail slider beneath the main image. When a user slides through the variant thumbnails, the main product image, title, price, and discount update in real-time—offering an interactive, seamless browsing experience. This feature enhances product visibility and improves user engagement, particularly for collections with multiple variations.

Homepage & UI Enhancements – Custom Interactive Features

This project involved advanced homepage customization to elevate both functionality and user engagement. A fully customized homepage banner was created to align with the brand’s visual identity. A Custom Mega Menu was developed to dynamically display promotional sections based on the first-level and second-level menu selections, offering a context-aware navigation experience.

A custom image slider was implemented using OWL Slider, combining both text and video testimonials to showcase customer feedback in an engaging format. Additionally, a unique Product Marker Slider was developed—also using OWL Slider—featuring an interactive image with multiple markers. Each marker displays a product name and URL tooltip on hover, and redirects users to the product page upon click. This interactive hotspot experience enhances product discoverability and adds a rich layer of interactivity to the shopping journey.

Project Type:
Custom WordPress Development with 3rd-Party REST API Integration

Overview:
This project focused on integrating the external Zubarus API with WordPress MemberPress, creating a seamless automated membership management system. The goal was to sync user registration, membership plan assignment, and subscription validation between two completely different platforms.

Key Features & Workflow:

  • Two-Way API Integration Using cURL (PHP):
    Utilized two distinct REST APIs:

    • Zubarus API for retrieving all registered users.

    • MemberPress API for programmatically creating users and assigning plans.

  • Automated Member Import & Registration:

    • Pulled all member data from Zubarus.

    • Created corresponding users in WordPress.

    • Assigned users to a specific MemberPress plan.

    • Plan mapping was based on either MemberPress ID (if available via API) or plan title matching.

  • Dynamic User Access Control:

    • Implemented a daily CRON job to sync and update user records.

    • Automatically checked subscription expiration from Zubarus and revoked MemberPress access if expired.

    • Prevented login for users with expired plans using a custom hook.

  • Real-Time New User Sync:

    • On new registration in Zubarus, data was automatically pushed to WordPress.

    • New users received a custom welcome email with their:

      • Username, Password, Website login link

WordPress WooCommerce – SwissPost Plugin Customization

Technical Implementation:

  • WooCommerce Limitation:
    WooCommerce natively supports only one billing and shipping address per order. This created a roadblock for multi-shipping scenarios.

  • Solution via YITH Multiple Shipping Addresses Plugin:
    Integrated and customized the YITH Multiple Shipping Addresses plugin to enable customers to assign different shipping addresses per product in the cart.

  • SwissPost API Limitations:
    SwissPost originally only allowed one barcode and one shipping label per order—tied to the main customer’s address. It did not support multiple barcodes for individual recipients.

Customizations Made:

  • Modified the SwissPost Plugin to:

    • Handle multiple shipping addresses dynamically.

    • Generate separate barcodes and shipping labels for each product, based on the recipient’s address.

    • Maintain API compatibility while enabling accurate tracking for each parcel.

    • Sync individual shipping costs and tracking per product-recipient combination.

  • Enabled custom gift messages to be attached to each item—sent along with the parcel, improving the gifting experience.

WooCommerce Pickup Time Scheduling Customization

Overview:

An eCommerce store specializing in freshly baked cookies and related products, requiring precise control over pickup timings to ensure product freshness and operational efficiency. The client needed to enforce a strict pickup time policy where orders could only be scheduled at least 3 hours after store opening and no later than 3 hours before store closing. If customers placed orders less than 3 hours before closing, same-day pickup should be disabled, but future-day orders with proper timing should still be allowed.

Solution:
  • Developed custom logic integrated into WooCommerce checkout using:

    • Custom product fields to capture pickup preferences.

    • A datetime picker with dynamic validation.

  • Pickup time rules implemented:

    • For same-day orders, pickup times are allowed only if the order is placed more than 3 hours before store closing.

    • For future orders, pickup time starts at 3 hours after the store opens, and ends exactly at store closing time.

  • The date selector disables invalid days and times automatically based on the current time and store hours.

Woocommerce QR Code Scanner & Tea Recipe Timer

Custom WordPress + WooCommerce Mobile Experience Enhancement. An innovative online store selling tea products wanted to provide a unique mobile experience where customers could scan QR codes to access interactive tea recipes with video tutorials and timed brewing reminders.

Challenge:

Deliver two distinct user experiences based on device type:

  • On desktop, show a simple WooCommerce product page.

  • On mobile, offer a QR code scanner interface that, upon scanning, redirects users to a tea recipe page featuring a video tutorial and an interactive timer that notifies when the tea is ready.

Solution:
  • Device Detection:
    Customized the site to detect if the user is on mobile and switch to the scanner page automatically.

  • QR Code Scanner:
    Integrated a 3rd-party QR code scanning API/web service to scan QR codes directly from the mobile browser.

  • Dynamic Recipe Pages:
    Created recipe pages as custom posts with ACF (Advanced Custom Fields) for recipe details and brewing duration.

  • Interactive Timer:
    Implemented a jQuery-based timer that starts after scanning, with a beep alert when the tea is ready based on the recipe’s duration field.

  • Backend Integration:
    Used ACF fields to input the brewing time, which feeds the frontend timer dynamically.
