“Auctions” is a new section set up to be easily deployed across the whole MLSE environment of Drupal websites and apps. One where registered sports fans can bid on various valuables and items auctioned there.In other words, to the highly diversified range of sports fan experiences that they were already providing, MLSE wanted to add one more: the bidding experience.And they assigned us, the OPTASY team, to create all the specific features and…(Read more)
What we did:
created all the above-mentioned features and set up an MLSE auction system from the ground up
integrated 2 key modules into the project: the Drupal Commerce bundle and the Commerce Auction contrib module
further extended the Commerce Auction module's functionality to incorporate an automatic bids algorithm
implemented a custom pop-up form that enables bidders to inline edit their profile pages
set the logic behind to use an FCFS mechanism so that the system could cope with those autobid scenarios featuring simultaneous bidders
developed a custom Commerce payment method module, one that supports credit card online payment integration
automated the order issuing process for the winning bidders
(Far) More than just “another fan site”. Toronto FC's Drupal 7-based website turned out as the ultimate source of both informative and entertaining exclusive content for this team's supporters.
Content that they can “consume”, interact with and turn into... lifelong memories. In short: the resulting fan site is a source of memorable experiences...
And by “exclusive content”, meant to bring supporters closer to their favorite team, we do mean…(Read more)
What we did:
-
built the fan site from the ground up using Drupal 7: we've put together a custom pre-built architecture, then developed and added all the needed, project-specific components
-
integrated it with the Janrain CIAM platform (one leveraging a common user database, that a wide range of MLSE services and apps are “plugged” to)
-
integrated it with Vimeo, a media-rich platform, so that the exclusive video content gets retrieved, right from its sources, via API
-
synchronized content between the Vimeo account and the Drupal platform using a forced manual update for implementing a purge all/fetch all feature
-
integrated token sign-in validation from mobile apps: it takes no more than a click login for the user to switch from the fan site to apps serving the same purpose
-
configured the Janrain workflow so that it should be used on a multisite setup; this allows updating specific fields of the global Janrain user data object
