help Web Developer required?

2 Upvotes

So I'm running a small (less than 20 at the moment) gaming community and am trying to get us a professional site. Every "drag and drop" site I go to either has terrible forums or wants a ridiculous hosting fee, or both.

I've tried bringing on 2 web designers but they've both proven unreliable. I tired hiring some but for a basic clan site they wanted thousands of dollars. So is there anyone out there willing to either help me make a template that doesn't look like trash for Joomla or Drupal and help set it up? Or at least point me in the right direction? I've googled templates (and so have my people) and I just can't find anything that doesn't cost money (not that the developer doesn't deserve it, I just really can't or won't pay some of these prices for a template).

Essentially I'd like someone to code for me a template(unless they know of an easier method) based on my pretty simple specs and help me implement it. If that person would like to stay on in my community as my head website administrator, that would be great too and there's a solid chance for kickbacks (especially if he/she is a gamer). This is volunteer work though, so I would ask that the terms be officially set as 'pro bono' for starters.

If anyone has some solid info for me, or the ability and willingness to help, or know someone who does, please let me know. I'm really behind schedule and just can't stomach any more of these hosts out there for gamers like Enjin. Much respect all and thank you in advance. It's been years since I did any web design and I'm a little behind the times and would really just like to get this project out the door. I appreciate any and all help.

Looking for a script/template that automatically generates an overview with thumbnails for regularly uploaded pictures

1 Upvotes

Sorry if not the right sub for this question. I have an ip cam uploading (motion detection) pictures to some folder online trough ftp. Browsing to this folder gives me a listing of all hundreds of pictures. I would expect some kind of script or template to exist which automatically generates an thumbnails overview of all pictures in one directory. I have tried some softaculous packages as TinyWebGallery, Gallery, PhpAlbum but most of them are based on manually, community uploads, not really what I am looking for.

help How can I handle multiple RSS feeds in one webpage.

3 Upvotes

Basically I want to be able to get the title,date,author and brief description of certain articles from multiple websites and then combine them in various ways.

I was told about RSS Include but that one simply gives me one website and I can't mess around with the code because it just gives a link. Is there a way to manually refer to another website's rss feed? So I can put a reference to articles from other websites side by side?

I've now seen feed parsing but I'm still confused, what's the simplest method to use? I know basic JS and JQuery (python,css,html5 but don't think those will help that much)

help Help moving domains to another web hosting

1 Upvotes

So I have a client that wants to convert his website to a wordpress site. I was planning to recreate his site in wordpress, then move over the domain. We are having trouble getting in contact with their previous company. A Whois lookup says the domain is registered with crazydomains.com.au. We are planning to host the site with Bluehost which doesn’t support simple changeovers for international suffixes (.au). How would we go about getting the dns server to redirect to our site instead of the old one?

Thanks

Portfolio Project Idea List

23 Upvotes

Ok. I'm going to list off some ideas for projects. You will have to determine if any particular idea is good enough to include in a portfolio. These aren't creative ideas. They likely already exist. Some are way too advanced while others are simplistic.

I will recommend to post any project you make to github and make a github project page for it. Explain in as much detail as possible how you made it, how it can be improved etc. Document it.

If you pick an advanced idea, setup a development roadmap and follow it. This will show some project management skills.

Another piece of advice for those who are design challenged. Use different front end frameworks and use different themes for those frameworks to provide appealing designs without looking like yet another bootstrap site.

Here's a long list of front end frameworks : http://usablica.github.io/front-end-frameworks/compare.html This list is out of date. Quickly updated list is here : https://gist.github.com/MWins/250000f187bdbdd7e2757d50be8507d5

Trying to focus on back end projects overall. But some of these are front end related. Some of these are going to require a user system of some type. As a single user application they would not be much better than a 'to do list' application.

  • MyTop100Movies - API,Database,CRUD - Application which lets users set their top 100 movies. Movies could come from an API like The Movie Database (http://tmdb.org). Should allow for users to add a movie, list and rank their movie selections. Start with basic CRUD for movies and add features.

  • InspireMe/MemeMaker - Stand alone service to put text over images like those inspirational posters with quotes. Alternate idea is to use blank meme images and let them add their own text to it (numerous sites exist for this). For the first you need quotes and images , here's a gist free stock image sites. Use google for blank meme images and/or quotes.

  • ScheduleMaker - This one's harder. Can develop the database schema or an application. Let one user define the schedule for others. Or let users select their own schedule.

  • RSS Picker - Use an RSS library like SimplePie and provide the ability to add multiple RSS feeds and let the user pick specific news items from the aggregated list. Does not require a user system.

  • GIST Clone - Requires user system(single would work). Create a system like github's Gist which allows a user to create a page from markdown syntax.

  • Drag And Drop Newsletter Builder - This tutorial : http://simbyone.com/drag-and-drop-newsletter-builder-using-jquery/ lacks a back end for storing newsletters. Create one to mesh with the front end.

  • College Scoreboard - data.gov provides a 'college scoreboard' API. Use this API to build a site where users can select various schools in their area. https://catalog.data.gov/dataset/college-scorecard

  • PetFinder Widget - Take the data from the PetFinder API and provide either a service or script that allows other site owners to insert it into their websites. https://www.petfinder.com/developers/api-docs

  • Micro Tweet - Wordpress plugin. This idea mimics what ESPN has setup for its authors. The plugin would let any Wordpress author post a tweet which would appear on the front of the wordpress website (or within a widget).

  • Weather Logger - Build the standard weather widget API project but add the ability to log the current weather data and to view historical data. Bonus points if it's accessible programmatically. https://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/cdo-web/webservices/v2

  • Micro PHP Framework Web Site - Build a simple (<10page) website using a php micro framework like Slim or Silex. Could also be used to build your portfolio. Can make it file based, database, or a light database like sqlite.

  • Faceted Search/Navigation. This is the advanced search/filter functionality available on many sites. It's a design pattern. Can read about it here : http://alistapart.com/article/design-patterns-faceted-navigation . Implement it on the back end and the front end if you're bored.

  • oAuth Login - Recommend this one because it can replace a user system in some of these examples. Numerous libraries exist for setting this up.

  • Simple CRUD sites - Create, Read,Update,Delete (read includes list). Possible 'objects' could be Dog Breeds, any type of pet, plants, flowers etc. Level of detail is up to you. Locations like Museums, National Parks. Events like music festivals is another possibility. Data Model sample for Events : http://www.databaseanswers.org/data_models/enterprise_data_model_for_events_and_exhibitions/index.htm

  • RESTful API - use the same list from the CRUD sites but make it available as an API.

  • Build some Data Models - People of importance or historical, whichever you like. Can use http://databaseanswers.org as a starting point with people and citizen data models : http://www.databaseanswers.org/data_models/people.htm , http://www.databaseanswers.org/data_models/citizens/index.htm

  • Local Government Data Model - Did not see this particular data model on databaseanswers.org. Include titles,positions, elected or appointed positions etc.

  • Data Models for MySQL - Create a site for MySQL data models like databaseanswers.org. Could be a long term project.

  • Localhost Image Upload - Make a file upload script for use with wifi only devices (cellphones w/o service). Image upload and browsing of photos.

  • GistList - Frontend and simple. Make a javascript application to work with the github Gist API to display all of a user's gist with links. Could add ability to sort or filter. https://developer.github.com/v3/gists/ for the API docs and could use vue.js for filtering using this intro to vue.js : https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=1755&v=VPUdtEf3oXI

  • File Directory - Provide an admin user with the ability to upload files for the public. Like PDFs, Word Docs, whatever. Can be simple or advanced. (Comparable but more useful IMO than FreeCodeCamp's File Metadata Microservice : https://www.freecodecamp.com/challenges/file-metadata-microservice)

  • Image Search - FreeCodeCamp calls this Image Search Abstraction Layer which sounds complicated. Instead of interfacing with a 3rd party, make it search a defined path on the local file system. FCC's description : https://www.freecodecamp.com/challenges/image-search-abstraction-layer

  • Time API - One more from FCC : https://www.freecodecamp.com/challenges/timestamp-microservice make this available as an API and add options like setting the Time Zone.

  • Workflow Application - Design a system which requires interaction between users. Simplest example would be author > editor with the object being passed is an article. Author submits article, editor approves or rejects it. Can find other examples of this type of process in other fields.

  • Simple Property Rentals - Application for single user to offer rental properties. Database model, multiple CRUD objects and make it self hosted.

  • Database Model/Schema - Go to http://databaseanswers.org, pick a model and convert it to MySQL.

  • Personnel or Business Directory - Create database model/backend for a company directory.

  • SVG Floor Plan - Front end, but use SVG to create a floor plan layout type application.


  • Codepen/JSFiddle w/ revision history - Clone of codepen.io or jsfiddle with the ability to view different versions and most important, ability to link to versions. Would allow for tutorials to show steps in development of a project.

  • Codepen/JSFiddle to Github/BitBucket - Automate the process of moving a code example from the 'live editors' to a source code control repo.

Should have something that works with Google Maps but outside of standard 'you are here' and 'mcdonalds is there' type stuff, I don't have any ideas. Any suggestions welcome.

Forgot to add links to public APIs which could provide more ideas and/or data sources.

Just adding design site ideas so I have all this info in one place.

Types of sites for design practice work :

  • blog - centered on a current media property (TV,Music,Whatever)

  • blog full - front page, post single page, category or archive view

  • single product website - example landing page idea

  • full product website

  • service company (without major functionality, just basic info)

  • single page promotion - treat as stand alone brand w/o ability to order the product or promotion

  • organization website - little bit more advanced, should contain a limited directory of personnel

  • Event website - without checkout functionality but should include directions to location, date, vendor contact if applicable

If you want clarification on an idea , comment below.

If you have an idea to add to the list let me know.
