What would you like done?
We’re looking to have a discourse server hosted (including backups), highly customized, have someone with expertise who can answer our questions, implement change requests on an ongoing basis. Our customizations will not require code changes but will require CMS (like a header with buttons & links) as well as plugins and using some of the more advanced features like: single sign-on, anonymous plugin for post & reply, showing thumbnail images (e.g. like https://github.com/angusmcleod/discourse-topic-previews) and polls.
We got a prototype setup internally so we know its doable but need it rebuilt from scratch on a hosted server with someone who can do additional customization requests.
When do you need it done?
Within the next few weeks.
What is your budget, in $ USD that you can offer for this task? discourse.org Enterprise is too expensive
As already noted, the first port of call which I ask people to consider, is always with the originators of the platform discourse.org and then some of the other existing Discourse service providers like Communiteq (formerly DiscourseHosting)
I do custom Discourses and can do the stuff you’re asking for. I don’t know how much you’ve been quoted for discourse.org Enterprise, so I don’t know if I would be able to provide what you want (which is potentially quite a lot of setup work BTW) for a price you would be happy with. I may be able to help.
By all means PM me if you want to discuss pricing.
