IAP Website

We are pleased to announce that the new IAP website, designed and developed by Mint, has just launched. (July 2024). Wellis Technology provided the custom PHP backend screens and facilities, that allow members to view and update their details and register for IAP webinars.
The IAP are a respected and established professional body and charity. They have members in over 30 countries and liaise with government, academia and employers. Their objective is to ‘Improve Software for Society’.
The IAP took advantage of Mint Designs Mint Mojo service and over the last 18 months they have been working on a brand refresh, created a brand guidelines document and promotional materials. The main objective of the commission was to create a new website which replaced a dated, word-heavy site with poor user experience.
Wellis Technology, have written a series of backend PHP scripts to allow members to review and amend their data, look up and pay their subscriptions, print reciepts. In addition, the ability to reserve a spot at the Institutions webinars, which are on a wide range of software development issues from Cyber Security to AI. We were responsible for the integration of Mint Designs new site and the existing infrastructure and backend systems.
Working with Kate Honey at Mint Design to deliver this amazing site has been a real pleasure as our unique skillsets coming together. The new site that will serve the IAP well moving into the future; it’s contemporary, well-written and has a broad appeal. Hope you agree: www.iap.org.uk, and if you work in the software development sector you may want to look into joining the IAP!

WT Datagrid and Forms

Wellis technology has been developing a range of technologies to reduce development time for small and larger scale WordPress systems.
WT Datagrid, is a simple plugin, that allows users to drop a simple command onto a page or post and when the page is rendered, it calls a backend SQL command, that will then return the data and display it in a simple table or list formatted manner.

This can then be linked to another datagrid to display a further datagrid or to a form where individual records can be edited and saved.

This is a progression in our goal to make WordPress based business systems easy and quick to build.
The system is currently undergoing testing with one of our clients to move their desktop systems to the cloud.

Delivery of IAP Applications System
This week has seen the delivery of the Institution of Analysts and Programmers, Applications system.
This system takes online applications from their web site and manages the application through the various processes from ensuring all the relevant material has been supplied, that the application is reviewed and the applicant informed as to whether they were successful or not. It then awaits the payment of the membership fee and will then automatically create a member record in the IAP’s Membership System.
If you are in need of a custom written membership system, why not give us a call or email us. -

IOS 7
As a fairly keen iPhone owner, I downloaded the new IOS 7 this morning and wow is it different, from logging in, the Icons and many of the apps have changed appearance.
There are hundreds of changes, of course some only apply if you have a iPhone 5 or better, but many are nice enhancements.
Security as ever is a improvement.
