Original Content / Paid Submission Plugin
The project is to create a Wordpress Plugin that enables guests to submit content to a Wordpress blog, verifies that user-submitted passes Copyscape and accepts PayPal payments for the submission.
There was a WP plugin which did this. Unfortunately it is is no longer maintained or functional. However, it would be a very good model of what is wanted Check here to view the capabilities of the Content Submit plugin: [login to view URL]
The Content Submit plugin has these desireable features built-in.
- Charge for content submission by integrating Paypal.
- Copyscape API compatible. Accepts copyscape username and API key. When someone submits a post to the blog the plugin checks if the content is indexed somewhere else. If so it informs the submittor of the failure and tags the article as duplicate content/trash.
- Set default post status to Pending or Published.
- Set minimum and maximum number of words allowed per post.
- Set how many urls is allowed per post.
- ALLOW SUBMISSIONS ONLY to admin-specified category list .
Display of the input form to surfers is enabled by inserting a custom shortcode.
Downloaded copy of the (non-functioning) Content Submit plugin is attached to this post.
Please respond with costs to create this new plugin, expected time frame to complete it,
and any suggestions you may have to improve the original plugin.
Best regards,
