Update to www.healthpromotion.ie
We are delighted to share this update with you that phase 3 of the redevelopment of www.healthpromotion.ie has been successfully deployed this week with significant updates to the Product Listing Page (PLP) and Product Details Pages (PDP), marking a significant milestone for the overall project. After extensive technical and user acceptance testing, the website now displays a product image for each resource along with improvements to user flow, account security, and content design. This brings us nearer the finished front and back-end redevelopment.
Phase 4 will include a new website landing page and improved back-end functionality and is set for completion in late Q3.
