HELP WANTED: get paid for custom b2evo skins & development

March 24, 2008 @ 00:37, by Francois Planque • Category: Community

I am getting more and more requests for custom work around b2evolution. The problem is I cannot do it. Even if it's well paid!

I am overbooked big time! So are the other b2evolution developers. Plus, I absolutely want to save time for working on general development of b2evolution.

So I want to pass those leads out to you! If you have some decent experience with b2evolution and you are looking for freelance work, either design or development/programming, or if you have a custom development company offering those services, please let me know. Send me an email or leave a comment. Let me also know if you'd like to be listed publicly.

The most common requests I get are variations of the following:

Can you design a skin matching my current site?
Can you port/convert my WordPress theme to b2evolution?
Can you help me with installation on my server?
Can you help me integrate my blog(s) into my site?
Can you program a plugin to do x, y or z?
Can you help me optimize my site?

Again, if you can do any of these, I have clients for you! Drop me a line!

Note: You have to discuss the details and prices with the clients yourself. I'm just passing leads to you (for free!) and then I'm out of the loop.

Edit: I have created a page listing b2evolution professionals. I will send all my leads contacts to this page and let them decide for themselves. Instructions to be listed are included on that page.

I would like to help you take some of that load:

Maybe there's a way we can create a sort of network of people who can help. I have experience in some areas, but might need to sub-contract other areas of expertise.

I can do custom skinning/creating a skin to match wordpress etc. but I need to be paid by the person who wants the service done.

Is that OK?

Yes, all these requests are for paid work, of course. And you deal with the client directly. I only want to connect buyers and providers. I won't charge and I won't be involved in the projects.

Hi
I've sent you a link to my professional profile, and can work via odesk or directly with you or the customers. I would suggest that if you have alot of work that odesk outsoucing might help as it is a guaranteed income for you, otherwise you or your clients may contact me directly and you will need to let me know how much commission you will be looking for. I look forward to hearing from you.

I am interested in being added to the list as well. I can do all except write plug-ins. I installed b2evolution on my server and I skinned it to match the main site. The main site is just standard HTML and only the blogs are through b2evolution. One of the reason I went with b2evolution was the ease at skinning it to match my main site. I wanted my blog to look different from all the other b2evolution users and it was easy because b2evolution actually gave some thoughts to skinning; not as an after thought like some of the others.

I can help with some of the lines, and have i firm registered for these options. I'm from Norway, so skandinavian clients would be great. I'm no so good in designing, but I mannage setting up the site, getting plugins and custom wishes to work.

I can help with:
1) installation of b2evolution (always the latest stable version only).
2) conversion of themes/skins/templates to b2evolution (always latest stable version only), provided permission has been granted (need a copy of the written permission [email])

I forgot to add, with regards to b2evo installation, I will install additional skins and plugins - for installation only as well. If there are skins/plugins problem/bugs that I'm not knowledgeable about (thus can't fix), I'll leave it as inactive.
