Project Scope and Summary

Engaged directly by the business owner, we partnered with Barbara Fiore Editora to take ownership of an abandoned development project. Our initial scope included a crucial ExpressionEngine CMS upgrade from version 2, migrating a legacy version of Expresso Store to the latest stable release (EE5). Building upon this, we were further entrusted to undertake a comprehensive website redesign, migrating the e-commerce platform from Store to Cartthrob, upgrading the CMS to EE7 Pro, and switching payment gateways from PayPal to Stripe.

Project Deliverables

The successful completion of this project resulted in a fully revitalised and modern e-commerce platform for Barbara Fiore Editora. By taking ownership of the abandoned development and executing the necessary upgrades and migrations, we delivered a stable and efficient online store powered by ExpressionEngine 7 Pro and Cartthrob.

The comprehensive website redesign provides a beautiful and intuitive user experience, effectively showcasing their unique collection of illustrated books, comics, and graphic novels. The transition from PayPal to Stripe as the primary payment gateway offers enhanced security and a streamlined checkout process for customers. This robust new foundation not only enables Barbara Fiore Editora to more effectively sell their publications but also provides them with a future-proof and manageable platform for continued growth and content management.
