Project Brief : Vacation rental website dedicated to Apartments in Paris France ([login to view URL]). My website is NOT a subscription site where owners pay to adverstise their properties, but a partnership between property owners sharing a same site (that makes a big difference on the programming).
Create:
Property Search Engine
Calendar
Property Page Template
GuestBook Form
Property Basket/Selected properties
Mail Server
2 Flash Scripts (showing apartment pictures)
1) Conditions:
- PHP programming & MySQL Database
- Use Open Source
- The codes have to be clean and easy to update.
- WebSite readable on most Internet Browsers.
2) Design/Graphics:
The following pages should look like these:
- Property Page: [login to view URL]
- Index Page: [login to view URL]
You will provide a Flash Script for both of these pages:
- Property Page: [login to view URL]
- Index Page: [login to view URL]
I will provide all logos and pictures. You will make the first property page and I should be able to prepare all the other ones.
All property page will offer "Easy Printing".
3) Search Engine/DataBase:
I need a "STEP by STEP Search Engine" to avoid a NO RESULT. Will ask first Booking dates+Number of People.
Result will show NUMBER of PROPERTIES available and offer additional limitations (District...price...amenities).
The Search Engine should be able to handle GO BACK request (very important).
A Basket/Property Selection should appear on each page (Up to 5 properties). At the end of the visit, the guest will send the same booking inquiry to all selected apartment owners.
4) Administrator Access:
- PassWord acccess.
Allows to create/modify NEW PROPERTIES.
- Follow Inquiries and Bookings.
- Manage Online Calendar.
- Access to all Owners accounts.
- Validate/Modify Testimonials-GuestBook.
5) Online Calendar - linked to Search Engine and also separately readable.
- An INDIVIDUAL property calendar / Example: [login to view URL]
- A GLOBAL one with all Properties /Example: [login to view URL]
6) Owners Access:
- PassWord acccess.
- Check received inquiries from Guests.
- Use "Easy tool" to reply to the booking inquiry (2 templates available YES or NO).
- Manage Calendar.
- Email the Webmaster
7) Mail Server:
- None of the emails or forms on the website will use Strong Emails. Only dynamic - non spam needed.
- All messages received and sent by the owners will copy Administrator.
