Rental Wp Theme And Plugins 07.09.08
My current site is http://gatorpads.com - you’re going to do a wordpress version of it with more pizazz!
I basically need someone to create a plugin and theme combination for a real estate RENTAL site. Goal is to extract the CMS
capabilities of Wordpress.
Plugin and theme will be WHITE LABEL and only I will have rights to it upon completion, however you will get full credit
(link back) and will probably have option to stay on for support.
I will create a PSD design which you will hand code into a wordpress: CSS WIDGET FRIENDLY, theme (no slicing - the PSD is just to give you my vision), and you will create plugins for the following functions:
1. Creating a rental listing (with typical rental information, checkbox fields, etc)
2. Ability to add new fields
3. Wordpress Gallery implementation (Wordpress 2.5+ has a new gallery display feature)
4. google maps integration (both automatic map creation of property location AND map showing location of all properties with pop up windows and basic info about property)
5. Paypal integration for multiple users (realtors & property owners) to pay to list on the site.
6. Featured listings (premium placement - widget in sidebar)
7. New listings widget
8. Rotating Header Photo which shows photos of available properties.
9. User friendly admin panel for individuals who submit their properties to the site - Should NOT look like a normal
wordpress admin panel - will require CSS redesign for admin panel.
10. Comment form that CAN ALSO BE a private email form.
Again, the idea is to turn wordpress into a rental site for real estate landlords, real estate agents and property owners. I
will eventually allow other people to purchase/download the theme and the plugin with support.
There will basically be 2 plugins:
1. Plugin 1 will be the property management tool (the ability to create listings, add custom fields, integrate maps,
wordpress gallery, skype presence, AIM presence). This will be all under the wordpress admin panel titled something like
“Rentals Manager”
2. Plugin 2 will allow people to leave comments about the property OR they can check a box, and the “comment” will go
directly to the POST AUTHOR (there may be many post authors) as a private email.
The THEME will be a custom layout which is better suited for rental display. (different from typical blog layout)
Skype/AIM fields will basically be where you type in your Skype username and it should indicate if you’re online - little
things like that. And of course, the site itself should incorporate it’s own way to sign up as a property owner and list your
property (for a fee).
But I don’t want you to just use a bunch of other people’s plugins to create desired effect. I want special plugins (and
theme) just for my project - so I can distribute to others.
Final mockups in PSD will be provided.
