Social Network / Intranet
Los Angeles based Talent Agency looking to create a customized social network to interact with our clients and buyers. Seeking programmer to customize a PHPfox, Dolphin, or better platform to do the following. In phase one of the development we are looking to achieve the following customizations.

1. Custom User Types:
We have a unique need for this social network that is unlike a traditional modification. We need to set up 5 different user types Clients, Non Exclusive Clients, Buyers, Contacts and agents. The challenge is that each of the first five user profiles can only interact and with the agents. This means that clients can be invited to join the network and only can see, message, chat and post information that can be accessed by the agents category.

2. Custom Profiles based on categories:
The second objective is to create custom profiles for each of these users types via categories. These profiles will have fields relating to the categories set to the user type. For example if the administrator invites a client to join the network he could invite the member pre selecting the user type let's say for example the client user type. Then the administrator could select the profiles he wishes that user to fill out. Let's say we invite a client user and we wish to have them fill out the commercial and theatrical profile. They would see this when they log on, but if not invited they would only have access to profiles we issue then. We have about 20 custom profiles, but we would like the ability to add more at a future date.

3. Invitation only network
We wish to be able to invite and approve all members of the network.

4. Custom Layout.
We would like to modify and have pre selected layouts for each profile.

5. Custom event feature:
We need to be able to use the event feature to send auditions and other calendar information to clients. We need to add file attachments to the events and have the ability for the user to confirm the event.

6. Custom News Feature.
We need the ability to customize the news and forum section to only distribute news and forum information to selected profile categories. For example if I want to just post news to people who are buyers, and have a TV packaging profile we should be able to do so when posting.

7. Status
Each profile should have a status area. All agents can see all the status updates from the other user groups, but the user groups can only see the status updates from the agents not other user profiles.

8. Email notification.
Users should have the option to be notified via email, and possibly sms regarding calendar updates and incoming messages and events.

9. Custom Search.
The Agents should have the ability to custom search users on multiple profile fields. All other users should not be able to do this.

We look forward to your bid!
