We have a list of things we'd like to improve on the course planner hosted on our website, to make it look better and minimize the number of bookings that we have to reject because they are wrong.
1.
Can all costs be displayed to two significant figures, i.e. £140.00 instead of £140?. The total costs should be rounded off to two significant figures. Similarly, when displaying the cost of a course which is over £1000.00 it should be written with a comma (,) after the first numerical digit. So £1000 should be written £1,000.00. (This is because we have people from all around the world coming to our school, and we need to keep a very precise standard format on all the things we do to avoid misunderstandings.
2.
Could all the dates such as 02-Nov-2012 be displayed as 2 Nov 2012, and keep the same date format everywhere?
3.
The dates in the 'invalid_dates' table, are the dates when the school is closed and there are no lessons for any courses. At the moment, these weeks are not appearing on the list of dates. Can we change that, making these dates to appear in the list, but greyed out? (like the dates in 'invalid_dates2')
4.
The students can select the duration of their course (2 weeks, 3 weeks, 4 weeks, 30 weeks...). However, we would like to put a limit to the duration of the course in the following way: If a student selects a course, for which there are some dates greyed out in the future, it means that the course will be full for some weeks later, so, we would like to set the 'maximum duration of the course', to when a date is greyed out. In this way we avoid students to book a course though a period when the school is full. They should be able to book a second course after the weeks that are greyed out.
5.
One-To-One lessons: (private lessons for 1 person): At the moment, we offer the 1to1 lessons as an "optional course" that you can book only if you are doing a "Main Course". We would like to change it, so anyone can take 1to1 lessons even if they are not doing any other course: Would be possible to change the name of the Tab called "Optional Courses", to "One-To-One Lessons"? In that tab, we would like the student to be able to select the start date, the duration in weeks, and how many hours he wants per week, and to be available to book it even if a "Main Course" is not selected.
6.
The biggest change that we need to do, is regarding accommodation: We need a similar system to the courses 'invalid_dates2' table, which should be able to exclude some weeks for accommodation: It has happened to us that we have no space in our residence for the summer (all the rooms are booked for the summer already), and many people are still trying to book accommodation in our residence. Booking the accommodation will have a specific list of restrictions (conditionals) that I can specify later, but what we need is some kind of 'invalid_dates_accommodation', so we can stop people booking accommodation for weeks that are already full, adding those weeks into the new table, with the same system (Unix time stamp for the Monday of the week). At the moment, I think that the accommodation is dependant on the course that you select, starting 1 day before the course starts and allowing the student to select any number of weeks between 1 and the length of the course in weeks.
7.
Would it be possible to add a print button to print the student information and course details in the application form that appears after going to "submit application"?
8.
There is an error with the airport transfers: The user can select as many Airport transfers as he wants: It should be limited to either 1 transfer with return, (for example 1 return transfer to Bristol Airport) or 2 single transfers (for example 1 from/to Bristol Airport + 1 from/to Cardiff). So if the student select 1 return transfer, he should'nt be able to select a second transfer, and if he selects 2 transfers, both transfers must be "one way".
9.
We have seen some schools which, instead of having a combo-box with the dates of the dates, they have a calendar with the days where is available to book. Would be, at this stage, possible to change this?? (Only the mondays for the starting dates, and the fridays for the ending dates, would be available on the calendar, greying out too those
10.
Info button (i): Could we add a small button which would give more info about the selected course? (We could have a new column in the courses table with a large text, that would appear into that text box, or open a new tab on the browser and browse to the course selected, like for example this http://celt.co.uk/index.php/en/courses/english-courses-available-at-celt#HLC for the Holiday Language courses.
We need all these change to be finished by Friday 22nd of June.
