Project: Signature Sympathy Flowers Collection

Purpose: E-commerce site that allows customers to order sympathy flower arrangements through a network of florists provided by Florist One
Location: http://www.steiflowers.com
User Base: N/A
Platform: PHP/CodeIgniter

I wasn't the original developer for this site, but members of our Marketing department approached me to make some necessary modifications within a short timeframe. This site was built using the PHP-based CodeIgniter application framework, which I had no knowledge of until February 2011. The challenge was to take it from being hard-coded for one specific location to making it dynamically customize for 11 locations in the Tampa area.

Customers first visit one of our location's web sites and clicks on one of the Send Flowers buttons. Using data passed via CodeIgniter's URI routing method, the site dynamically customizes logos and delivery address based upon which location web site the customer is coming from.

Additional enhancements are being discussed.
