<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">I’m looking for a dev to help with the following.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">I help a small local non-profit with their website. We recently installed a donation plugin called “GiveWP” which we got up and running fine on their website which was on WP 4.9. However, there is a functionality
we need which requires it to run on WP 5.7.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">We got 5.7 running on the staging site, but now we need to get it running on the production site.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">There was some custom code made to Events Calendar Pro (currently on both staging 5.7 and production 4.9) and a non-supported plugin called Custom Menu Wizard (changes made only on staging running 5.7)<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">The scope as I see it (but I’m not a dev) would be:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">1- make a backup on developer’s PC of actual live/staging<br>
2- copy live to staging including everything (all databases)<br>
3- make sure that the staging has copied OK and there are no problems<br>
4- do all the possible updates on staging including the WordPress (there may be some updates I’ll need to get from prior dev who made some changes to “Custom Menu Wizard” plugin which was not compatible with WP 5.7)<br>
5- add the copied customizations (Events Calendar Pro and Custom Menu Wizard) to staging and make sure that they work ok.<br>
6- once everything is updated and working OK on staging, copy the website to live<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">7- qc the live site and make any fixes if necessary<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Is there anyone that could help us for a reasonable fee?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">My best,<o:p></o:p></span></p>
