fuzzylime, web design glasgow

Here are a few of the sites we've worked on before. Some we designed and coded from scratch; others we improved after they were already up and running.

Humanist Society Scotland

fuzzylime was selected to redevelop the site for Humanist Society Scotland, competing in a tender process to win the project. HSS was moving to becoming a limited company and was expanding rapidly, and wanted its new website to reflect this.

The large-scale project included producing a design that would work for the society and developing a site with a large range of interactive features for visitors. It also had to be fully manageable and updateable by a number of different users, with control over access to different parts of the site.

The project also required some information from HSS's previous site to be imported to the new one.

How it works

The base elements of the site work on our standard content management system, fuzzylime (cms+). But we added a large number of additional elements to meet HSS's needs.

We built a large-scale membership system to manage HSS's growing member list. This is fully searchable and is integrated with the site's login system, allowing users to update their membership details, and indeed make payments to renew their membership, directly through the site.

This information is also used in a "celebrant search" feature, which allows visitors to the site to find a celebrant near them for a forthcoming ceremony. Celebrants can update their own details and visitors can view celebrants on a map or a list view.

The site features a full online shop, which uses our e-commerce system; and a large-scale resources section, which is linked to users' accounts allowing different users to see and download different documents (and, in some cases, upload them too).

We also built a forum system to run within the site, allowing communication between members; an events system to show what's on and coming up; and polls, allowing members to vote on HSS-specific questions.
