Front-end

I can talk with you about this issue if you would like.

Ouch! Tareq has come up with a wonderful project management system that initially worked only in the back end. After prodding from his fans, he developed an add-on so that his plugin could operate or at least be viewable in the front end. If you have no need for project management, which I’m guessing you don’t, then just put the plugin aside for another day or site.

In the interim, this post itself is inside of the forum which is a part of the WordPress repository of information, also including plugins, themes, and the Codex.

If you scroll to the top, you’ll see the Navigation menu has the word “Support” highlighted, so to speak. You need to look to the left of that and click on the “Plugins” tab/link.

That will take you to the “Plugin Directory”. In the center, you’ll see a search bar. Type in front end, and hit Search Plugins. You’ll then be presented with page after page with plugins that match or closely match those keywords (front end). Do not stop looking after a page or two. Just keep trucking along until you’ve gone through about 15 pages of plugins. Then try typing in frontend (as one word), in case the plugin description uses the phrase as a single word.

Happy hunting.

By the way Joy, be sure to back up your site before installing various plugins. Especially as you are using ElegantThemes. I love ’em, but they have a tendency to not play well with the other kids. They will resolve any issues in their support forum of course, but be sure you have a back up. And be sure you have access to your files, preferably via an FTP like Filezilla. If a plugin breaks the site, it’s easy to go in and take it out from the back end.

Hi Joy

I just want to make sure I am clear on what it is you are seeking to have your site do exactly. When you say “I am trying to get the forums to do what it appears that your platform (WordPress support forums I presume) is designed perfectly to do”, what do you mean exactly. What is it that the wordpress forums do, that you want yours to do?

You also mentioned that “I need them to be able to access the site from the front end”. Again, I am not clear on what this means. I am sorry that I am not understanding the explanation you already provided, but I would like to help if I can.

As I understand from his post, he needs a subscription and access control based system where he can control which users can have which options and it should be in the frontend.

@joy Gilfilen, you posted in the WordPress support forum, but you posted it in a wrong section. The section where you posted is the support section for a specific plugin and thats “WP Project Manager” plugin. Go here and create a new topic, someone might help you.

Hi Tareq,

I have a VA company and what I would like to do is to use your plugin so that my clients can requests tasks/jobs to be done by logging into my site and uploading their requirements in a to-do/project management application. Once loaded, my pool of VA’s can either access back end/receive an email about the job that needs doing and getting on with the task. Updates can be provided which clients can see when they log in

Does your plugin allow this as your earlier post states “front end is the same as back end, only without project creation feature”

This sort of hinders what I want to achieve

@sohooutsourcing, are you asking for project creation feature from frontend too? It’ll come out very soon!

Yes I am, for the plugin to work as I need it to, clients will need to create tasks, to do lists, project from the website.

Any ideas as to when this will be available?
