La Manga Man.
An independent guide to La Manga Club in Murcia, Spain. Neil designed the site and we brought it to life, with an admin where he adds rental properties, events and guides himself, and a YouTube feed that puts every new video on the site automatically.
Where it started
Love life. Live La Manga.
Neil makes videos about life at La Manga Club and shares them on YouTube, Instagram and Facebook. He wanted one home for all of it, built around sport, property and lifestyle.
Neil came to us with a clear vision and his own design already drawn up. Our job was to bring it to life, and to make sure he could keep it up to date himself, without waiting on us.
The admin
Properties, events and guides, added by Neil.
We built Neil his own admin behind a secure sign-in. He adds a rental property with its photos, bedrooms, how many it sleeps, the price and a booking link, and it’s on the Property page straight away. Events, guides and FAQs work the same way.
Photos upload straight from his phone. Questions from Ask La Manga Man, Work with us enquiries and Insider sign-ups all arrive in the same admin, and he can invite other people to help, each with their own sign-in.
The YouTube feed
Every new video, on the site by itself.
The site reads Neil’s YouTube channel, so each new upload appears on the Videos page and the homepage without him adding a thing. Shorts keep their upright shape.
When he wants more control, he opens a video in the admin to change its title, give it a category like Golf or Padel so it shows on the right page, or make it the headline video on the homepage.
Upcoming events
What’s on, in both time zones.
Events are listed by month, with every time shown in Spain and UK time, and visitors can add one straight to their calendar.
A weekly event, like a quiz night, goes into the admin once and repeats by itself, and past dates drop off on their own.
