### **Project Overview** I'm migrating a specialized backflow prevention parts e-commerce site from Shopify to WooCommerce (~700 products). The backend migration is handled - I need an experienced WooCommerce developer to build out the frontend theme and key pages. **Live Shopify Site:** getbackflowparts.com (for reference on structure/UX to replicate) ### **What I Need** - Custom child theme development (parent theme: open to your recommendation - prefer PHP-friendly, lightweight options) - Replicate existing site structure and UX with refreshed, cleaner design - Key page builds: Homepage, product category pages, single product pages, cart/checkout - Smart faceted filtering that shows contextual filters based on category (e.g., manufacturer, model compatibility, size, material) - Mobile-responsive design - Minimal plugin approach - prefer custom code where practical ### **Technical Requirements** - Clean, maintainable code following WordPress/WooCommerce best practices - Full source code delivered via zip - Setup should work seamlessly between live server and LocalWP for testing - Existing integrations: Standard payment gateways, Cash on Delivery, QuickBooks Online plugin ### **Working Style** - I'm technical but not a WordPress specialist - Open to collaborating on architecture decisions (especially around categories/attributes/taxonomies) - Available for Zoom calls to discuss backend structure and requirements - Prefer working side-by-side on key decisions rather than fully hands-off ### **Deliverables** - Custom child theme with all page templates - Basic guidance on managing/updating the theme post-launch - Branding assets (logo, colors, fonts) are ready to go ### **Budget & Timeline** - Budget: $2,000-$4,000 (negotiable based on experience and approach) - Timeline: ASAP, but no hard deadline - quality over speed ### **Ideal Candidate** - Strong WooCommerce theme development experience - Comfortable with custom PHP development (not just page builders) - Experience with product attribute/filtering systems - Can recommend best practices for my use case - Good communicator who can explain technical decisions **To Apply:** Please share: 1.
