Priory Park Website Relaunch

Priory Park Circuit wanted to extend the functionality of its website, taking control of its content with a user-friendly content management system.

Development Period: September - October 2006
Tagged as: Corporate, Large and Web Design.

About

This began as a university project back in 2005, and was a significant part of my final-year workload at university.

In the autumn of 2006, Priory Park asked me to extend the functionality of the website in the hope of gaining greater control over its content.

The result is a customised content management system that makes all sections of the site editable, including news stories, price and events listings, gallery items and contact information. No specialist software is required to make changes - it can all be done with a standard web browser - and no programming knowledge is required.

Much of the content produced for the original site has been brought forward, including gallery images, promotional videos and interactive Flash-based content.

Technical Details

The site is written entirely in PHP on the CakePHP framework. Using Cake's MVC design principles ensures concise and maintainable code by separating the application's business and presentation logic. Content is stored in MySQL tables.

The application outputs (generally) standards-compliant HTML and CSS, and is designed with usability in mind, both for the visitor and administrator.
