Our Tales
Stories Behind Every Line of Code
How We Stopped Silent Redirects and Malware Injections
When the client contacted us, they were facing every store owner's worst fear: their traffic was being hijacked. The website was suffering from repeated security breaches, but the most alarming symptom was the unexpected redirects.
Visitors from specific regions (notably Indonesia and the United States) were clicking on the store, only to be forcibly redirected to unknown, malicious external websites.
The Diagnosis: What was happening? Our security team at Code Tale immediately analyzed the system. We discovered a sophisticated attack:
-
Hidden Malicious Code: Scripts injected deep into the theme and plugin files.
-
Background Exploits: Scripts designed to run silently, triggering redirects and damaging core files.
-
Performance Drop: The store became unstable and slow due to the malware consuming server resources.
Our Approach: Clean, Repair, Fortify
We didn't just patch the issue; we performed a full security overhaul to ensure it wouldn't happen again:
-
Deep Malware Scan: We combed through all core files, themes, plugins, and the database to locate every trace of the infection.
-
Surgical Removal: All malicious scripts and backdoors were safely removed without affecting the store’s genuine data.
-
Hardening & Firewall Setup: We installed a professional-grade firewall, strengthened server permissions, and added multiple protection layers.
-
Performance Check: Post-cleanup, we optimized the site’s performance to ensure the store was not just safe, but faster than before.
-
Ongoing Vigilance: We implemented scheduled scans and automated reporting systems.
The Result
Within hours, the store was fully restored. The redirects stopped immediately, the speed returned, and the client regained full control of their business.
A Tale of Security What started as a major security threat became another success story—a reminder of how critical proactive protection is for online businesses.
At Code Tale, real-world challenges shape how we defend our clients in the digital space. Every line of code has a tale, and this one ended with a stronger, safer website.
How We Took an E-Commerce Store from a 5/100 Score to High Performance
Imagine having exceptional products and eager customers, but a store door so heavy that visitors leave before they even step inside. This was, quite literally, the reality for one of our clients.
The store owner knew his products were great, but the website’s speed wasn’t reflecting that quality. Pages were loading slowly, user experience was suffering, and performance scores were holding the store back.
The numbers painted a painful picture:
- Mobile Speed Score: 5/100 (Critical)
- Desktop Score: 20/100
- Page Load Time: Nearly 10 seconds
- LCP (Largest Contentful Paint): Above 8s
- Stability (CLS): Highly unstable
He told us plainly:
"My store has the potential to grow — but its speed is limiting everything."
And he was absolutely right.
The Turning Point
When our team at Code Tale stepped in, we began the story from the beginning: a deep, full performance audit.
We didn't just guess; we analyzed the code to understand exactly what was slowing the store down. We discovered:
- Very large images with no compression.
- Render-blocking JS & CSS preventing the page from appearing.
- A cluttered database and unused scripts.
- Weak Core Web Vitals and unoptimized hosting settings.
Our Optimization Strategy
Using our high-performance methodology, we rebuilt the experience step by step:
- Next-Gen Images: Converted all media to WebP format.
- Core Vitals Surgery: Improved LCP from 8s to 2.3s.
- Visual Stability: Stabilized CLS from 0.42 to 0.02 (Perfect stability).
- Code Cleanup: Removed unnecessary scripts and optimized caching layers.
- Faster Response: Significantly reduced TTFB (Time to First Byte).
The Result: A Performance Comeback
After just one week of precise technical work, the transformation was remarkable. It was a fresh start for the business:
- 🚀 Mobile Score: Jumped from 5 → 70
- 🚀 Desktop Score: Jumped from 20 → 92
- ⏱️ Load Time: Dropped from 9.8s → 1.9s
The store became faster, smoother, and far more enjoyable for users. Traffic improved, and bounce rates began to drop immediately.
A Tale Worth Sharing
This isn’t just a story about improving speed metrics. It’s a story about unlocking potential, restoring user experience, and bringing a growing store back into the competitive arena.
At Code Tale, we don’t just optimize websites — we create new success stories.
Building a Cigar Lounge Membership Ecosystem from Scratch
Transforming vague requirements into a premium subscription platform: App, Dashboard, and Smart Access.
Cigar lounges are all about exclusivity and experience. The client approached us wanting to "digitize member subscriptions" but lacked clear technical specifications. They needed a system that felt as premium as their cigars—handling memberships, payments, and access control seamlessly.
At Code Tale, we stepped in not just as developers, but as solution architects.
The Solution: A Full Membership Ecosystem
We designed a sophisticated workflow built on Laravel and a RESTful API architecture to manage the entire lifecycle:
-
Member Mobile App: A high-end, multi-language interface allowing users to browse subscription tiers, book halls instantly, and manage their profiles.
-
Admin Dashboard: A centralized control panel for managers to handle users, orders, notifications, and track revenue in one place.
-
Unified API: The robust backbone that syncs data in real-time between the app, the dashboard, and the hardware.
Premium Features for a Premium Audience
1. Integrated Hardware Control (Kapri Integration) We took access control to the next level by integrating directly with Kapri QR Readers.
-
Smart Entry: Scanning the QR code automatically opens the lounge door.
-
Personalized Welcome: The system triggers the screen to display the member's data and a welcome message upon entry.
2. Smart Guest System Exclusivity doesn't mean isolation. We added a feature allowing members to invite visitors by generating temporary, time-sensitive entry codes for their guests.
3. Automated Operations
-
Seamless Payments: Integrated gateways (Apple Pay, Credit Cards) for automatic subscription activation and renewal.
-
Smart Notifications: An automated engine for managing emails and push notifications to keep members updated.
The Outcome
We delivered a robust, scalable system that turned a vague idea into a daily operational asset. The lounge now automates its memberships, supports multiple languages, and offers a frictionless digital experience.
A Tale of Excellence
We proved that even without initial requirements, we can build a world-class product. At Code Tale, we merge software intelligence with hardware automation to code the luxury experience.
