I already have a licensed Brilliant Directories installation online and now need it shaped into a clean, modern-looking business directory covering 35 categories and roughly three membership tiers. My priority is to keep the overall feel Modern/Minimalist, so colour palettes, typography and layouts should stay light and uncluttered while still letting each listing stand out. Core tasks • Configure the 35 category structure, including friendly URLs and breadcrumbs so users can drill down quickly. • Build out three price plans (free, mid-tier, premium) with the corresponding signup flow, recurring billing rules and automated upgrade/downgrade logic. • Implement an advanced search experience—multi-filter, keyword and location radius—making sure results load fast on both desktop and mobile. • Activate member-generated reviews and star ratings, styled to match the minimalist theme and moderated through the admin dashboard. • Apply any CSS/HTML tweaks needed to bring the default Brilliant Directories templates in line with the Modern/Minimalist aesthetic I’m after. • Test the full user journey—from account creation to checkout—fixing any UX snags you find. Acceptance criteria 1. All 35 categories visible, searchable and editable from the admin panel. 2. Three pricing plans live with test transactions completing successfully. 3. Search returns accurate results in <2 sec for a 10 k-record sample dataset. 4. Reviews submit, display and calculate averages without errors. 5. Front-end passes mobile responsiveness tests (Chrome DevTools & BrowserStack). If you already have solid Brilliant Directories or similar PHP-based directory experience and can turn this around efficiently, let’s get started.

Hi, Your project needs a clean Brilliant Directories setup that keeps the site fast, organized, and consistent while adding deeper category structure, membership logic, and advanced search filters without disrupting the default flow. I can help map the category hierarchy, plan rules, and user journey from signup to checkout so the backend and front-end templates stay aligned. I’ll then implement search filters, radius/location logic, and review moderation, followed by CSS/HTML refinements to keep the interface minimalist, modern, and mobile-friendly. Key focus: Category structure, URLs, breadcrumbs Free, mid, and premium plan setup Search filters and location radius Review/rating display and moderation Template cleanup for a light UI I have experience with directory platforms, membership workflows, and front-end customization, and I can handle both functional setup and visual consistency. One question: should upgrade/downgrade changes apply immediately or at the next billing cycle? If youd like, I can review the scope with you on Freelancer chat or video call and get started right away. Regards, Ghanu & Samir KESHAV INFOTECH

Hi, You already have the hardest part in place; now the real work is making Brilliant Directories feel polished, fast, and easy to browse. I can shape your 35-category directory into a clean Modern/Minimalist experience, wire the three membership tiers with recurring billing and upgrade/downgrade logic, and tune the search flow so visitors find listings quickly on desktop and mobile. I’ve worked on PHP-based directory and membership systems, including template styling, checkout flows, admin setup, and performance fixes, so I can handle both the frontend polish and the functional details end to end. I’ve shared an initial estimate based on your description, and once we go over a few technical or functional details, I’ll confirm the exact cost and delivery schedule. I’ll also validate reviews, ratings, and the account-to-checkout journey so the whole experience feels consistent and reliable. Could you share whether you want the category URLs and search filters to follow any existing structure? Also, should the billing logic keep legacy members on their current plan rules, or migrate everyone to the new tiers? Looking forward to your reply so we can finalize the exact plan. Best regards, Asad

Shaping a licensed Brilliant Directories install into a clean 35-category directory with three tiers is right in my wheelhouse, and the key is doing it through BD's own settings and child-template overrides rather than hacking core files, so your license stays update-safe. I'd build the 35 categories with friendly URLs and breadcrumbs, configure the free/mid/premium plans with recurring billing plus automated upgrade/downgrade logic, and wire the advanced search for multi-filter, keyword and location-radius queries with proper indexing to keep results under two seconds on your 10k dataset. The reviews and star ratings I'll enable and restyle to match a light, minimalist theme via custom CSS, then moderate through the admin panel. I'll test the full journey from signup to checkout with live test transactions and fix any snags. I can start immediately.

Hi, I recently took a Figma design and rebuilt it into clean HTML, JS and CSS by hand, no third-party libraries, and the client noted I even added features the design had missed. That same hands-on CSS work is what shapes a Brilliant Directories install into a minimalist theme. One question on the tiers: do you want upgrade and downgrade to prorate mid-cycle, or just switch at the next billing date? That choice changes how the recurring billing rules get set up, so it's worth deciding before I touch checkout. We've also revamped a national sports body's WordPress site with Stripe billing and a fresh, light layout, so the payment and theming side is familiar ground. I'd start with category structure and friendly URLs as the first milestone, so you only release on delivered work. Which payment gateway are you on? Adil

Hi, This sounds like a clean customization job for Brilliant Directories—mostly frontend and workflow work rather than building from scratch. The main challenge will be aligning the existing PHP templates with the Modern/Minimalist aesthetic while keeping the search and billing logic performant. I’ve done similar directory work before, mostly front-end and payment integrations, where the trick was balancing design consistency with fast page loads. For the search, I’d probably index the category and location data properly and add client-side filtering to keep the response under two seconds even with 10k records. The trickiest parts will likely be the CSS cleanup and making sure the pricing logic handles upgrades smoothly without breaking the recurring billing. I’ve seen cases where even small changes to the templating system can cascade into checkout issues. I can start working right away. Let's connect and discuss the details. Thanks, Denis.
