Still having very hard time finding vbulletin coder for our requirements..
Tried posting on vb.org paid requests forum as well, but of no help..
Will be very helpful if someone can guide properly. We are ready to pay as per industry rates.
Remember to keep the topic alive, if it were me I would post once a week w/ a simple "Still looking" and if your not having luck try searching online - the paid request forum here is not the only medium available for finding reputable individuals or companies for that matter who provide quality work.
Now let me take a minute and clarify a few things, this however should be considered a clarification from my perspective only though! What can I say? Well it's simple - this type of work varies and in-turn so do the fees/prices therefor there is no industry standard... the base pay for a PHP Coder? Can you use that as a guide? Probably not or maybe so, either or, neither nor? Well vBulletin is based around that however has more to it, unless you find someone who knows the software you could be paying for a learning curve or other to be honest. This is truly one of those situations where, if your looking for help it's going to take finding the right person for the task or like the old saying "If you want it done right, do it yourself" and if that's not possible then well plainly put you need to "Put your money where your mouth is" and make it happen. If your on a limited budget or other then it's time to consider and realize that your not going to achieve every single customization, new feature, and goal you want on your site unless it's a very short list at that (or see below, find the right person and you will have it all quite possibly ).
Now with all that said I also need to remind others that you can find someone to work on your forum that charges what seems to be outrageous fees or you can find someone who charges nickels and dimes... Either one could be right for you! No seriously, I'm approached all the time and hear negative comments about not wanting to hire someone outside the US or who is in a country not "deemed" this or that and all I have to say is, all it takes is the right PERSON no matter where they are from - If they are honest and good hearted then what does location matter? Don't judge a book by it's cover and don't assume just because someone has a hard time with English (good lord man do you know how complicated it is to learn English versus someone learning another language? It's actually more complicated than other languages so give them a break) does not mean they can't code a fantastic modification. In the least consider everyone yet be cautious and careful while you take a small leap of faith... or not, the point is sometimes things work out however if you never purchase that lottery ticket, you won't have a chance to win big .
