Hello, I am in need of an FMyLife clone. This project includes 2 variations of the FML site…
Here are the details of the project. It may look like a lot but it’s really not, it’s just very detailed in description. Please review carefully and let us know if you are capable of completing this task. Keep in mind we are looking for a long-term relationship as we want to have someone to make modifications to the site in the future. If there is an aspect of the following details you do not understand and do not think you are capable of completing professionally, please tell us before we proceed further.
Version 1:
The sight will be just like fmylife. I would like a light green background instead of light blue.The posts will be in the same format and only 300 characters allowed for posts just like fmylife has. Anyone will be able to post a story (they will not need to be a member to read and comment on stories posted). All the posts must be forced to say a certain word (I will provide the word later on) at the end of them just like fml. I would like the quotes that readers can click on to say certain phrases (I will specify these later also, and just like fml, I just want to use these different titles). The top will have links that say HOME – Become a Member – Submit – Link to “the site”.
I will need a user name password and login area to be put at the right where they have their categories section, and I don’t want a category section.I would like an area under the login area for members to upload and share their pictures. Only members can view and share pics. It must be easy to be a member (simply a username, password, and email address). Anyone should be able to post a story and view them (so they don’t have to be a member to do this). And I need some places for ads.
Version 2:
Exact clone in terms of function and interface of the fmylife webpage, search capabilities, categories, etc. The script is made using the CakePHP framework so basically PHP & MySQL. I need this code to be exceptionally tight and clean – keep SEO in mind along with extremely high traffic – we don’t want something clunking up our servers. The site will be put through stress tests to verify the coding holds up so experts only!
- I want users to be able to moderate the posts just as in fmylife now and I want a simple way to see the new posts as they come in, in addition to being able to see what users have selected as they also moderate (i.e. “yes” or “no”)
- When making posts, users also have the ability to “append a photo” to the post
- A category menu (I will be selecting less than 10 categories to use) where users making a post will be able to select with category they want their post to fall under
- On the comments page for a particular post, the post will obviously be displayed first, then “Comments” and the ability to monitor (ON/OFF) just like in the original FML but right under that is “Add a Comment” and once a user comments it appears directly below where they just typed so the newest comments are at the top of the page and members do not have to scroll to the bottom to add a comment.
- Posts number which will correspond with however many posts there have been before that as in the fml now
- Store & API functions/areas
- A members section just the same as there is now with (login / password / email / allow to follow the different posts) and the member profile where they can add information about their self, photo, birthday, etc… just like the site has now.
- Within the member section I want the user to have the ability to “favorite” particular posts (you could just add a tiny “heart” image that will change red when a member has selected it as his/her favorite and an area in the members section when they login so they can view all their favorites, just like the site has now.
- Users do NOT have to be a member to make posts but they do if they want to comment on a particular post
- Moderate section where the visitor can accept or not a post in order to help the filter
- A form box within the comment section (next to where the user selects the “category” for the post) where a user can begin typing in a name (we will provide you with a list of names) and as they being typing a list of names appears below the form which corresponds to what they are typing. In other words, as they start to type, for example, “pen”… names such as “penny” and others that begin with “pen” appear and they can make their selection from that. I am sure there is a name for this feature I just am not aware of it. Sites such as facebook use it when searching for a user name. And within the post, if the user does select a name, which will not be a requirement, the name will be visible next to the category. So the category and the name will essentially be “tags” for the post if that makes sense. I know it is not as complicated as I may have made it seem I just want to be clear in what we want done.
The members area will entail much of the same benefits as the current FML:
