Whangarei District Council

Challenge

Whangarei District Council (WDC) reached out to us with their new website build. The team at WDC wanted to use a ready-made CMS platform, Open Cities. They also wanted to have a tourism component built into their new website, however, their CMS platform didn't have the capacity for custom development.

Solution

Konduit designed and developed a widget module that can reside as a third-party app embedded on their website. The result is a highly customisable modern widget, which can seamlessly display tourism listings, events, and hospitality establishments within the region.

Examples of the widget can be seen here: www.whangareinz.com/Holiday

Solutions we provided;

  • Embedded tourism listings widgets
  • Tourism listings database with connections to external APIs and third parties including Tourism New Zealand, Eventbrite, and Eventfinda
