Request for proposals
Activetrail (<[login to view URL]>) is today a static site. We would like to re-build the site on Joomla thus enabling us to create new pages, articles, upload new images etc. All pages on the site must be migrated to Joomla (HTML images, forms etc).
We would like the site to remain the same as it is now in terms of the pages, content and look + the addition of a list of headlines of articles on the homepage. This means that when I insert a new article to the site, I can chose to display its title on the homepage right after the flash area. The exact graphic for the display of these headlines does not exist yet, so for the purpose of this project the headlines should just appear with no specific graphic.
Also, there are 3 forms on the site:
1. request a demo
2. Contact us
3. Sign up to our newsletter (appears on all pages) on the homepage it is embedded in the flash and should stay that way.
The customer login page will remain as it is (we will take care of it).
The two first forms must both send out an email and insert the form to the DB. A screen to view all requests (contact and demo requests) must also be developed.
We would like to receive a price proposal for the work and time line.
The deliverables should be:
- DB export
- Joomla core + the enhancements
- Relevant Joomla templates
Just to make sure, the above list includes all the site's pages and content and should constitute everything I will need to install and run the site.
The above list excludes (you do not need to supply):
- Apache installation
- PHP installation
- My SQL installation
however you should provide details on the versions and configuration you have used on all three of the above.
