As Hotelcard gained widespread acclaim, new opportunities emerged, leading to the introduction of innovative features. However, the existing content management system (CMS) struggled to keep pace with these evolving demands. In response, the decision was made to transition to the more robust Laravel framework. Entrusted with the technical reins of HotelCard, Soft Solutions4U (SS4U) embarked on the task of rebuilding the portal from scratch, harnessing the power of this cutting-edge technology.

The challenge
A meticulous examination was conducted for each existing plugin. Comprehensive code analysis guided the customization process to seamlessly align them with version 2.1.10. Furthermore, the default view of the Admin Backend Login page was tailored to enhance user experience. API Integration We seamlessly integrated five-channel managers – ‘HotelSpider,’ ‘YieldPlanet,’ ‘VerticalBooking,’ ‘Kognitiv,’ and ‘RateDock’ – into the HotelCard framework. This was accomplished through various methods, including HTTP RAW POST and SOAP, based on the requirements of each manager. The PUSH method was uniformly adopted across all managers to facilitate updates to rates, inventory, and booking information.
Crafting Unique Algorithms
Ingenious algorithms were developed to spotlight the finest hotel deals on the homepage. A user-friendly dropdown menu enabled the filtering of these deals based on ‘Today’ (default), ‘This weekend,’ and ‘custom date range’ options. Moreover, a distinct algorithm empowered the sale of hotel rooms with varying discount rates, contingent on room inventory. Hoteliers were empowered to configure different pricing algorithms based on different time periods.
Technologies
- 1 Laravel for the Front End.
- 2 MySQL and JQuery.
- 3 October CMS for the Backend Administration and Dashboard.
October CMS Upgrade
Enhancing the Admin Backend Challenge: While the Front-End of HotelCard was intricately intertwined with the Laravel Framework, the backend relied on the older version 1.x.x of October CMS. The objective was to introduce enhancements and novel features, necessitating an upgrade of the CMS.

Enhancing Elastic Search Functionality
Revamping the search functionality was a pivotal task. Our mission encompassed implementing the ability to select additional services (such as breakfast, extra bed, etc.) during hotel room bookings. These services featured distinct price options, and multilingual support was a crucial requirement.
