Flowers by Annette

Flowers by Annette is an online florist that lets customers build their own hand-tied bouquets and gift packs. Their website was built by Delight Designs, who used our WooCommerce Product Table plugin to create a one-page order form for their flower bouquet and gift pack products.

The online store uses WooCommerce Product Table on all six of their product pages:

• Soft & Dreamy Bouquet
• Soft & Dreamy Bouquet Gift Pack
• Natural & Native Bouquet
• Natural & Native Bouquet Gift Pack
• Bright & Bold Bouquet
• Bright & Bold Bouquet Gift Pack

How our plugin solved their problem

Flowers by Annette displays the same details on both the bouquet product page and the bouquet gift pack product page. This includes image, name, summary, price, and purchasing options. Customers can learn about each item, see pricing information, personalize the item, and add multiple items to their shopping cart in one go.

In addition to this, they can use the search box on top of the order form to quickly find a specific item. Customers can also sort the items in the table by name, summary, and price. The order form is configured to display up to 25 items per page in the order form.

Customers only need to make their selections using the dropdown menus and then add the items they’d like to include in their order by ticking the checkbox next to the item. For example, if a customer wanted to add Joadja Wine to their gift pack, they would need to select the Type of Wine using the dropdown. Once they’ve made their selection, they can click the Add Selected to Cart button to add all of the items to their cart in one go.

WCLS.org is the Whatcom County Library System’s online presence. It provides easy access to its collection of books and other physical items as well as digital resources such as eBooks, online learning resources and reference databases.

During the pandemic crisis, all WCLS library buildings were closed and events such as weekly Storytimes for preschool children were cancelled. WCLS used our Posts Table Pro plugin to create an online library of Storytime videos performed by WCLS children’s librarians. It allows parents to provide their children with the routine and experience at home which they had previously received at the library.

Additionally, WCLS updated their Digital Content page using Posts Table Pro to improve their patrons’ experience by providing a quick and intuitive way to search and filter for digital resources. This includes e-books, e-audiobooks, music streaming and downloads, online learning tools, reference materials and digital magazines.

Whatcom Country Library System uses Posts Table Pro in two different ways in their Storytimes songs table and their Digital Content table:

• The Storytimes table has columns for the title, content, categories, and presenter. Parents can use the filter options to filter the table by categories and presenter. They can also use the search box to quickly find songs by name, presenter or category. In this way, a family can watch videos by their favorite presenter or from several presenters. They can choose a Welcome video, a Storytelling video, a Quieting video or any of the other six categories.
• The Digital Content table has columns for the resource link, image, and topics. Patrons can filter by topic and use the search bar to narrow down their search. This is an improvement over a long list of resources. Typing the first few letters of a resource name will bring it into view. Patrons can select from a long list of “Topics” (WordPress tags) to find resources of interest.

With both of these tables, patrons can decide how many items to show on the page through a dropdown selection. They can sort alphabetically by any column. The patron has much more control over their experience than they previously had.
