Description
I'm managing a project that is a Joomla powered online magazine. Most of the initial work has been done with setting up the Joomla system, building the menus, categories, sections and setting up some ads. An existing custom template exists on the site as well but is very basic at the moment.Current project milestones include:
- Custom design based on proofs of example sites and some design comps that were previously done. This will probably require some custom modules to achieve the design feel (please see attached comps). Most of this piece will be direct coordination between the freelancer and the client to achieve the clients needs.
- Install two plugins that have already been purchased (JoomlaWorks Frontpage Slideshow and JoomlaWorks SimpleImageGallery).
- Custom module(s) to enhance the browsing experience of the user while looking for articles. This will require functionality whereas users can use dropdowns to browse by several variables (based on automotive preferences such as year, make, model, body style, class, etc). I envision these being linked to articles in the form of tags (or some sort of classification).
- Cross-browser compatibility check on all aspects of the site to ensure accurate representation of the site within all browsers (firefox, ie, safari, chrome, etc).
This project is subject to additional milestones upon discussing the project with the freelancer and client. A majority of the project will be between the client and the freelancer - my role will be to oversee the project at a distance and to help with any questions that may come up in regards to the existing work that was performed.
Someone with design and coding experience using Joomla preferred. English speaking preferred. Fanatical communication on project progress is a must. The ability to meet the proposed deadline on time is a must as well.
The client will be populating the site with content once the site is near coding and design completion.
The attached mockups are only rough comps. Exact design specs will be discussed with the client upon choosing the freelancer.
