FLUX, web partner for Potatoes South Africa for more than five years, is launching a revamped and upgraded website, creating a dynamic presence packed with goodness reflecting a passion for potatoes!
Project manager Tamsyn Kent says: “The existing site was ideal for migration to the FLUX new WebEasy .NET implementation. Besides great design and functionality this coding platform includes a wide range of nifty functionality and implementations. Everything is supported by Microsoft through regular updates and new add-on applications.” (Read more)
One of the major features of the site is the volume of valuable information which benefits farmers, researchers and retailers as well as general visitors to the site. If you are looking for nutritional information, recipes or industry information, it is quick and easy to find.
In order to make this wealth of information easily accessible, the new website includes a comprehensive document store with an advanced search which classifies and stores documents systematically. The powerful yet simple search feature allows visitors to find relevant content by keyword, sub-section, region or document type, facilitating the flow of knowledge throughout multiple forums.
Another key feature in the WebEasy.NET author’s view is the simple to use portlet tool which enables a web-author to create a portlet page on any page of the website. Items added to portlet landing pages are automatically added, eliminating the need to duplicate workflow processes. A simple click and drag function enables portlets to be moved to different locations on a landing page.
Although a corporate site, the look and feel is fresh and exciting while being clean and functional. The visitor experience will be simpler than on the current site and information will be much more easily accessible.
The website includes a detailed news room with informative articles, and is well worth a visit for anyone wanting to learn about any aspect of potatoes.
Time spent on www.potatoes.co.za guarantees a bumper content crop. Watch the site for the new look coming soon!
