clubfive.co.uk
A membership website built as a collaboration with two UK agencies, Hardy and Sixty One Circles.
This Wordpress based website was beautifully designed by Hardy and handed over to myself and Sixty One Circles for the build.
The site uses a completely custom theme and a lot of custom functionality. We have also made use of third party plugins where it made more sense to use a plugin rather than developing the functionality.
To become a member, a user must purchase a membership/ subscription. Once a user is a member they have access to the shop where they can purchase physical products, their account/ profile, all workouts and the community forum.
The site has both live streaming and pre-recorded video functionality through Vimeo.
This site currently uses 12 different custom built Custom Post Types and ACF.
One of the more challenging features of this build was the custom built PHP and JavaScript countdown timer. This is no ordinary timer… it creates a list of the latest published posts and a separate list of the next up un-published posts. It then determines which post is coming up next and counts down to the go-live time and date, it then reveals the video and enables the live commenting (so that the instructors can chat with members in real time). Thats not all, it also adjusts for all timezones so that no matter where you are in the world, the count down will end at one point in time.
We are currently working on phase two of this website and are possibly looking at a phase 3 in the not too distant future.
The site is complex behind the scenes but is presented beautifully for an easy to use, professional experience.
