osCommerce experts only. If you dont have at least 5 reviews, we will not
consider your request. If we are happy with the work, we will have additional
projects plus maintence so it would be an ongoing relaitonship.
One of our child companies needs a website overhaul. Take a look at
www.clickCE.com . We provide distance education courses for real estate
mortgage, and insurance professionals. We want to use osCommerce as a shopping
cart. For our backend system, to manage our courses, we are using Moodle for
the Learning Management System. Cybersource is the payment merchant. Here is
what we need:
We like the overall look of our current site at www.clickCE.com and want to keep
the look of it, especially the banner. We want a search engine friendly website
(utilizing the cart) unlike our current site which is dynamic. When a person
lands on our home page, they should be presented with a map where they choose
their state. Once they choose the state, they pick the industry for which they
want to take the courses (we currently have this flow if you go to the course
catalog page). Once they pick their industry, they land on a page where they
are presented with various course options categorized in various ways. For
instance, one catagory would be prelicense courses, one would be continuing
education. Each state/industry combo may have different names for the category.
Each state/industry combo would have different courses for sale. Each course
would have a title, price, number of hours listed with it, and a description.
The subcategories such as contining education (under Texas Real Estate) would
also have some info that we should be able to modify providing them on
instructions on which courses they should take. (Visit www.financialcampus.com
, click on insurance ce, and choose any state and you will see an example of
what I am describing in terms of information that needs to be presented but not
design). The more search engine friendly the better. A real estate agent in
texas has no desire to view insurance courses for maryland folks.
Some of the courses we sell would be one off purchases like a test prep book
where we dont have to administer an exam. Other courses would be homestudy
courses where once they purchase the course, they would need to be auto enrolled
into our Learning Management System, moodle. Moodle currently has a paypal
module using 3rd party database student enrollment so this would need to be
modified to work with osCommerce. This should be seamless. When a student logs
into their account from our website, they should basically land on a page which
gives them the option of seeing their account balances (this would include
purchase history, points accumulated, affiliate program,etc) or Courses which
would take them to their moodle page. The moodle part does not need to be
search friendly since it is only seen by the students who have logged in.
Currently have moodle installed and osCommerce installed. Once you have made the
two talk, everything needs to be loaded onto the live site so their would be a
production site and test site.
Summary of what is needed
1. Integrate osCommerce with Cybersource including the pay by check system.
(osCommerce has been installed but there is no assurance it is working properly
or was loaded properly so it may require tweaking or a reload)
2. Add about 35 contributions to osCommerce (I have the list, email me if you
want to see it)
3. Make sure all the osCommerce contributions work properly
4. Customize the look and feel of osCommerce to mimick the current site,
www.clickCE.com
5. Make Moodle (www.moodle.org) talk to osCommerce and autoenroll students for
certain courses. I'm guessing you would have to flag courses in osCommerce wich
need autoenrollment in moodle so it knows which ones.
Moodle is fully functional on its own in that it lets a student see a catalog of
courses and enroll in the ones it wants to. You would have to figure out the
best way to utilize the catalog from Moodle or use osCommerce to display the
catalog and hide the external viewing of the moodle catalog to make sure the
student does not end up on the moodle catalog where they would not see the one
off courses. Alternatively , we can make every product (non course) an empty
course in moodle if that makes this project easier (ie. They buy a pencil and it
autoenrolls them in an empty pencil course in moodle). in the moodle forums,
search for paypal and you'll find info on the enrollment plugin. I can point you
in the right direction if you ask.
6. Make the system easy to add new courses. Double entry is fine (once in
osCommerce and once in Moodle) but there needs to be an easy way to hook the two
together so they know they are the same course.
7. Customize moodle to have the same look and feel of our current website
www.clickce.com
8. Keep the bookstore page on our current website where people can purchase
books (and othe products) but not courses.
8. Creating the home page after login where the student can either see their
account balances or their courses.
9. Make everything as search engine friendly as possible
10. Once done, and we sign off, move the entire thing to a live site and make
sure it works. (we should be able to populate this on the live site prior to
going live).
Please ask any questions prior to bidding. Fixed bids only and specificy time
needed to complete. The sooner the better. Feel free to give two bids with 2
different timeframes. Looking forward to your responses.
