The Challenge
Digital Transformation for Solar Services: A.R. Solar Electricals required a modern, high-performance web platform to showcase their solar installation projects (residential, commercial, agricultural, rooftop, and solar pumps).
Lead Generation & Calculator Tools: The client needed automated tools for prospective customers to calculate solar power requirements, estimate financial savings, request custom quotes, and book Free Solar Surveys.
Dynamic Project Portfolio & Meta Tracking: The need for field technicians and admins to showcase completed installations with technical metadata (e.g., system capacity in kW, annual energy output in kWh, location, client details, and COâ‚‚ emission savings in tons).
Mobile & On-Site Project Entry: Providing seamless responsive interfaces so field agents and customers can upload images, submit survey requests, or submit project details directly from mobile devices.
Our Solution
Custom WordPress Theme Architecture: Developed a custom child theme (astra-child) built on top of the Astra foundation, ensuring high performance, responsive design, and modular PHP components.
Custom Post Type (CPT) for Solar Projects: Created dedicated solar_project post types with custom taxonomy (project_category) and extended meta boxes to track system capacity, location, completion date, client info, energy output, and COâ‚‚ savings.
Interactive Customer Utilities:
Solar Savings Calculator (page-calculator.php): Allows users to estimate solar capacity requirements.
Free Solar Survey & Quote Wizard (page-free-solar-survey.php, page-quote.php, includes/quote_request.php): Multi-step form flows to capture site information and contact details.
Mobile Project Creation Tool (template-mobile-project-form.php): Mobile-friendly interface for uploading photos and registering projects.
WooCommerce Integration: Built dedicated product templates (single-product.php, archive-product.php) for selling and inquiring about solar hardware (Solar Pumps, Solar Water Heaters, Street Lights, Residential & Commercial Solar Kits).
Modern UI/UX & Asynchronous Operations: Integrated Bootstrap 5 grid layout, jQuery-based AJAX load-more pagination, Lightbox galleries, Owl Carousel sliders, and Isotope portfolio filters for zero-reload user interactions.
SEO & AI/LLM Optimization: Configured site metadata and schema with All in One SEO, including an llms.txt file for indexing by AI agents and web crawlers.
