We need an articles website with a few unique elements, this project is the beginning of what we believe will be a great new website and will be a ongoing project with additional work needed so please read the briefing carefully and only bid if you are prepared for more development opportunities.

This is stage one of the project.

We need a new type of articles website built that allows users to create an informative article and each article must have a video embedded from any of the major video websites. When a user adds an article it must be a minimum of 200 characters (maximum of 700), they must also add a minimum on 5 keyword tags (maximum of 10) and most importantly they must add a video from Youtube, Metacafe, Vimeo, and Yahoo Videos. Each video must have a description added and it must be a minimum of 10 characters (maximum of 70) The site must have multiple categories, which can be added/edited/deleted. Articles will have a quality rating (1 to 11) and the site needs to have a Featured Video's section. When a article is created we want the site to automatically generate a thumbnail of the video for search results and featured video's or new video's displayed on the home page. We will provide a image of the proposed homepage, search results, categories pages, we need a news (blog style) page, sponsors page, privacy page, terms of use, sign up page, but we are open to suggestions by talented developers.

The site needs a cookies permission java drop down to comply with the new EEC privacy requirements.

We also need a help page, and contact us (which sends emails to the address only the Master user can edit).

When a user signs up to be a Submitter the must accept the Terms of use, to be able to sign up. They will need to add their

Required

first name, surname, select a username (we need to check availability of the username) email address, country (dropdown menu),

Optional

mobile/cell number

Postcode/Zip Code

And a captcha must be added, we also want a captcha on the contact us form.

Users and pages.

We want the site to be built with a Master user, Moderator, and Submitter hierarchy. So 3 current user types.

The Master User will be able to create, suspend, make any Submitter a Moderator, and delete any Moderator or Submitter users. Create articles, add/edit/delete categories for articles. The Master user also receives the categories suggestions from Submitter. Can add to the news page (blog style) and edit any static pages. Edit the contact us email address (forwarded from the contact page). The Master user must also be able to change the meta keywords and meta description of the following pages, home page (index), we need a news (blog style) page, sponsors page, privacy page, terms of use. The Master user also needs to be able to create articles via the use of paste in box, which uses CSV type format to add articles based on the content of the CSV (i.e. ArticleName, VideoURL, VideoDESCRIPTION, ArticleTEXT, TAG1, TAG2 etc). The Master User will also have access to edit the ‘Name of the Site' (see SEO section for why), upload a logo, edit the header section social media links/add this code (the header must have twitter, facebook, Pinterest, Youtube, google+ and addthis). The Master User must also be able to edit the ‘email this to' format via the admin area.

The Moderator can suspend any Submitter (but a reason must be completed, which sends a message to the Master User and displays on the Submitter's account that has been suspended) they can also edit any article added by a Submitter. Create articles, add/edit/delete categories for articles. They can also see a list of any users they have suspended which also displays the reason.

The Submitter can create articles, suggest categories for articles (which get sent to the Master User). They can rate other articles (but not their own articles). When suspended they cannot add or give ratings for articles. They can send a request for reactivation (after being suspended) to the Moderator who suspended them. When suspended they should also be able to see the reason added by the Moderator.

Please note when a Master User or Moderator is suspending a user it must alert them that the Submitter user will be informed of the suspension reason added.

SEO

We need the abilities to edit the meta descriptions/kewords as described in the Master User description above.

When an article is created the page generated needs to contain the ‘Name of the Site' and Video description as the meta description. The tags should generate the meta keywords.

Generated pages should have URL's that relate to the video description and therefore good for SEO, but can have a ending that is numeric to allow multiple. Like the below

[url removed, login to view]

When a user creates an article they need to add a video description (this is the article name) and displays above the article as well. And this is what will be shown right of the video thumbnail in search results.

The site needs the to have the addthis code from the Master User editable section added to every article page created. It also needs to have its own ‘email this to' function

Search Function

The search function needs to look up against the video description, the tags, and then the article text to rank results. Features videos must always rank top if there is a keyword match.

The design

We can provide more details to the selected programmer, but I'm sure you guys know that we are looking for a modern site, with a good flow that is a little like a wiki but looks simpler and modern. We also want the site to function well for both users and us as master users. This is just the first stage, we will be taking this website a lot further with the development company we choose, as long as you understand this please make sure you add the following words to any bids ‘The futures grey”.

Some important bits

We would prefer you use PHP and mySQL to build, but the site must be secure, once built we have to assess all elements for security, so please make sure you can make the website/database secure for us.

We must be able to extract a list of members and details (name, email, address, etc.) easily using the admin area.

It must be built to be mobile/cell phone friendly, smart phones that is. When you build it make sure the database used is suitable for the next phases, ie, app, media share etc.

Payment in full will be made after desired script has been installed and tested. Happy to use escrow for those with experience. We always prefer to use developers who will be available for future changes and enhancements but its really import on this project. Please ensure you provide examples of previous projects, similar projects with user hierarchy, video embedding, and good design is important. You must support us by ensuring everything (that's all functions and installation) has written instructions.

A copy of the script with no restrictions must be supplied. Please let us know if you have any questions. The project must be complete within 4 weeks and we will provide a bonus if you exceed our requirements and meet the deadlines. During the project we will expect daily updates, we need to be able to contact you via skype, telephone, email, and you need to tell us the best times as we are UK based.

If you're good at the right price we may work on the app with you and the next stages.

Many Thanks
