Archive of past Mugo Web projects
While many Mugo projects transition into long-term partnerships, we are also called upon to help companies with specific projects for short-term goals. Our team are trusted experts, who can support in-house developers in many different enterprises. We're proud of the work we did in these cases and are happy to showcase our experience.
Mugo partnership 2014
Hootsuite's website had been created by great organic growth, but as their company and needs matured, they sought out an enterprise content management system. It needed to be scalable, enable quick content changes, support many integrations, and bring together multiple departments. They chose eZ Publish as the CMS and Mugo Web as the principal implementation team. For the entire year during implementation, Mugo Developers worked from the Hootsuite offices as their in-house development team.
Together with the Hootsuite marketing team, Mugo built a framework independent of the Hootsuite product stack to support future growth and content management best practices so that the website could be a lead generation machine.
Mugo did the following at Hootsuite:
Mugo partnership 2015
eWEEK was the flagship publication of QuinStreet Enterprise. Originally PC Week when it launched in 1983, it covered technology news, enterprise IT trends, and reviews of new tech products in a variety of digital formats.
Mugo built a new website for eWEEK that enabled:
Mugo partnership 2008
Mugo migrated Car and Driver's website, holding 50,000 content objects, to run on a platform based on eZ Publish. We focused on implementing a new design, setting up new content organization, and implementing some enhanced, interactive features such as an advanced image gallery and a car configurator.
This year, two Canadian provinces, BC and Alberta, moved to make Daylight Saving Time permanent. This created an issue with event registrations for some of our library clients, an interesting technical solution, and the potential for future implications down the road as other provinces (and the US) potentially join the trend. This and more in August’s Mugo Digest!
Our library client wanted to allow patrons to apply for library cards via their website. The client had existing restrictions on access to cards. Local residents receive free cards while visitors and non-residents pay a fee. Individual patrons should not have access to more than one library card. Therefore the system had to automatically validate and standardize addresses to support duplicate detection, determine a geographical position for each address, and finally classify addresses as local or non-local. We supported this using GeoJSON and integrating with the library's ILS. We tested this functionality a number of ways, including an exploration into the mathematic principles behind the solution.
When developing a Symfony application, you often need to inspect the emails your application generates without actually sending them. While tools like Mailpit or Mailtrap are excellent choices, sometimes you want something even simpler: write every email to disk as a standard .eml file.
This approach is particularly useful for:
In this article, we'll build a custom Symfony Mailer transport that stores every outgoing email as an RFC 822 compatible .eml file.
When creating content in Ibexa using the RichText Editor, it is easy to realize that not every RichText field needs the same toolbar. A ”Body” field may need headings, embeds, and tables. A ”Short Description” or ”Caption” field usually needs bold, italic, and little else. When every field gets the full CKEditor toolbar, it might make editors waste time or even make them think they can add markup your templates were never built for.
Legacy eZ Publish solved this. Ibexa DXP does not, at least out of the box. In this blog post we describe how we added this feature to Ibexa 4.
Welcome to Mugo Web's new monthly digest, a quick way to catch up with some of the things we've been working on. In July we marked a momentous anniversary, launched a brand new site for a client, and offered free educational opportunities.
A new update to the Mugo Page Bundle now allows for a straightforward migration from eZ Flow to Ibexa DXP. We’ve also added functionality to this versatile tool with a new rich text block type.

St. Thomas Public Library launches new website with expanded features.
The latest improvements to the Mugo Library platform focus on enhanced usability for library staff. Since these back-end improvements aren’t as noticeable as the front-end user experience, we wanted to take the opportunity to give a peek “under the hood”, and showcase what makes the Mugo Library event and calendar solution ideal for public libraries. Our new enhancements include expanded reporting, a new viewing interface, back-end patron search, and integration with the meeting room module.
