Advice needed: Is this possible with CB?

13 years 9 months ago #136599 by edot3
Hi, ive client that needs a site very similar in functionality to

www.swapaskill.com

before i give them a price for a bespoke build which i know will be out of their price range to be honest i thought id check out what you guys thought about being able to use CB for it.

They will need a search facility that draws from the user profile and a tags as on the swapaskill site.

Will it be possible to integrate this kind of functionality with CB?

Any advice or pointers to how i could achieve this would be much appreciated as well as anyone who would be interested developing it with me.

Cheers

Ian

Most of that sites functionality would be derived from 3rd party extensions. CB certainly can bring the profile aspects as well as the searching aspects through Userlists. The best I can suggest is create a CB installation and play with it, I certainly don't recommend providing CB to a paid client on your first attempt with CB (if is the case) as you're lacking experience with a powerful and extensive platform, which could cause unforeseen delays which of course a client will not like. Please, I recommend using CB personally for some time to make your self familiar with its capabilities as well as becoming a document subscriber for the documentation to assist in your installation and configuration process.
