Challenge

REMODELING: WHEN TECHNOLOGY NEEDS A LITTLE ME-TIME

With growing website traffic due to a diverse selection of articles and an increase in monthly readers, a challenge emerged to capture the attention of the team of psylife.de: The technical optimization of the platform. As a user of Drupal 8, whose life cycle had expired, there was an urgent need for a modernization of the open source system. However, the search for an agency for Drupal turned out to be more difficult than expected”, says Klaus Mickus, Manager, about the first steps in the project. Drupal There is a wide range of technical support, but we needed a partner at our side with whom we could develop and implement the technical updates that we needed – that, as well as help us to meet our individual goals in terms of usability and design”.

SURPRISES PAVE THE WAY

In the year 2021 psylife.de was able to end the search for a service provider and brought us on board as a partner. But, in order to take over the project, the first step was to remove the obstacles that lay on the way to the digital update: Due to the lack of contact with the previous agency, we had to exhaust all of the technical options for data transfer to our servers – a look behind the scenes of the website also did not bode well: The CMS, Thunder, the primary publisher that had been used for writing articles, was hopelessly outdated and the support for Drupal 8 no longer existed. So, for us, that meant: Challenge accepted, roll up the sleeves and get to work!

«With codafish, we now have the certainty that a project that is dear to our hearts is in safe hands. During each phase of the project, our needs were analysed and the agency was always on hand to advise us. And this is how we want to work in the future..»
Klaus Mickus, Director General

Solution

ALL NEW WITH A SOLID SET UP

After an initial analysis of the situation, we created a comprehensive, step by step project plan for the customer with which we were able to set up a completely new CMS for psylife.de. Beginning with the update of Drupal and the inclusion of the extension, Thunder, (from version 8 to 9) we were able to ensure a solid repair with continuous error corrections and, thus, ensure the required web security. Within a few months, the outdated system was modernized and smoothly transferred – a result that inspired the entire team of editors and content managers.
