Stellenbeschreibung:

// Project Overview
We are building a modern, user-centric comparison platform for digital services. The goal is to allow clients to request digital projects and compare proposals from different providers in a transparent and structured way. Unlike classic “matching platforms”, our system focuses on feature-rich, side-by-side comparison of offers, not automated provider matching.

The platform is based on WordPress and targets the English-speaking market. The project consists of two main modules:

1. Dynamic project tiles (displaying multiple provider offers per project)
2. Credit system for unlocking provider contact details


// Technical Environment

• WordPress 6.x (core system)
• Advanced Custom Fields Pro (for custom project/offer data)
• Ultimate Member (user profiles/roles, login & registration)
• WPForms (client project request form)
• WooCommerce (payment processing)

All plugins are already installed and configured. Platform URL and name will be shared directly with the selected freelancer.


// Project Scope & Tasks
A. Dynamic Project Tiles/Comparison Elements
Goal:
When a client requests a digital project via WPForms, a new “Project” custom post type is created in the member area. Providers can submit individual offers for each project. All offers for a project must be clearly displayed and easily compared (tiles, tabs, or a comparison table).

Requirements:

• Automatic creation of a “Project” custom post after WPForms submission
• Custom fields (sector, short description, budget, location, etc.) managed via ACF
• Display of all relevant offers in the provider dashboard – accessible only by logged-in users with the “Provider” role
• Provider contact details are initially hidden (see Credit System)
• Responsive frontend layout (grid, cards, or comparison tables)
• Filtering and sorting by relevant criteria


B. Credit System for Contact Unlocking
Goal:
Providers can purchase credits and use them to unlock contact details for specific project offers.

Requirements:

• Integrate WooCommerce for selling credit packages (e.g. 5, 10, 25 credits)
• Providers spend credits to unlock contact details for a chosen offer
• Contact data visibility is controlled: only the unlocking provider sees the details
• Accurate deduction and management of credit balances per user
• "Unlock Contact Details" button visible on each offer tile (if not yet unlocked)
• Logging of all unlocks by user for support and reporting purposes

Note: MyCred is not set up for this project. Please propose alternative plugins or custom solutions (with reasoning).


C. Interest-Based Offer Visibility
Goal:
Providers should only see projects and offers that match their selected interests or fields of expertise.

Requirements:

• Multi-select interest/category field in provider profile (e.g. via Ultimate Member custom fields)
• Filter logic: Only relevant projects/offers are shown in provider dashboard
• Freelancer should recommend the best technical solution (Ultimate Member field vs. separate WPForms-based selection), prioritizing compatibility with ACF and frontend filterability


// Expectations & Required Skills
Freelancer must have:

• Strong WordPress experience, especially with ACF and custom post types
• Solid WooCommerce skills (with focus on custom payment/credit logic)
• Expertise in custom visibility logic (user roles, metadata, unlock status)
• Practical experience with Ultimate Member or equivalent membership plugins
• Ability to document the implementation (shortcode usage, field structure, template overrides)

Bonus: Experience with responsive, user-friendly frontend components (grids, filters, cards)


Application Instructions
Please submit:

• A brief introduction and relevant portfolio, especially projects with comparable requirements
• Your recommendation for interest selection implementation (Ultimate Member vs. WPForms), with technical reasoning
• Optional: Suggestions for further optimization (UX, scalability, etc.)

We’re looking for a proactive freelancer who can propose robust, maintainable solutions and deliver clean, well-documented work. If you have questions, feel free to ask!
