We want to add a fancy showcase section to wpml.org, which will feature sites that use WPML.
This new section will list sites that were added to our forum’s showcase section. It will look like the showcase section on WordPress.org with preview images, description, visitor rating and (of course) outgoing links.
This project involves theme programming and design. While we can program it, we prefer to concentrate of WPML development and want to outsource this work.
Showcase section for wpml.org
There are two page templates to design for this section:
- Individual showcase pages (each talking about one website).
- A parent showcase page, listing all the individual showcase pages.
The individual showcase pages will be created with a template that uses custom fields for the thumbnail photo, excerpt and category. It will allow user rating and comments.
The parent showcase section page will act as an index page, showing the thumbnails, excerpts, category and rating of child pages. Comments will be closed for that page.
Of course, everything in the showcase section will be translated, so these template files must be language friendly.
What we expect
Milestones:
- We would first like to get a wireframe design (non working design) of the project.
- Next, you will need to add it to our theme.
- You’ll have to test and demo it on your own server.
- When it’s all completed, we’ll run it on wpml.org.
The design must be 100% HTML clean and database efficient (don’t call the same thing 10 times on the same page).
The two new page types will be WordPress page template.
Payment
We can only pay using PayPal. We’ll pay 1/3 when you get started, another 1/3 when you show a working demo on your server and the last 1/3 when the work is delivered.
