Project Overview We are a Scottish tailoring company looking for an experienced developer to build the first phase of an online custom shirt ordering platform. Our website is a blank canvas, although I'm familiar with Wordpress and WooCommerce since I use it for my other businesses. I'm not opposed to using something different for this project. This project is intended to become the foundation of a much larger platform over time, including trade accounts, white-labelled reseller websites and production management. However, this project is for Phase 1 only. We are looking for a developer who can recommend sensible, cost-effective solutions using existing plugins and technologies wherever appropriate, rather than reinventing functionality that already exists. The Goal We would like a customer to be able to: Register or log into their account Design a custom shirt using an interactive configurator Enter or select their measurements Add the shirt to their basket Pay securely through our existing checkout Receive a detailed order confirmation Return to their account later to reorder or edit previous shirts Existing Website Shirt Configurator: Customers should be able to customise the following: Cloth Approximately 500 shirt fabrics. Ideally searchable and filterable. Collar Cuff Shirt Front Style Pocket Style Shirt Back Style Darts Button Colour Thread Colour Stitching Colour Monogram Including: Initials Font Position Colour Contrast Cloth Options Customers should be able to choose contrasting fabrics for: Under Collar Inside Collar Under Cuff Button Placket Visual Preview A live preview should update as options are selected. This does not need to be a fully rendered 3D model. Layered illustrations, SVGs or another practical approach are perfectly acceptable if they provide a professional customer experience. We welcome recommendations from developers. Measurements Customers should be able to: Create a new measurement profile Edit an existing measurement profile Select an existing profile during checkout Examples: Business Shirt Casual Shirt Slim Fit Relaxed Fit Support for multiple measurement profiles per customer is required. Customer Account We would like to extend the "My Account" area to include: Measurement Profiles Create Edit Delete Select Saved Shirt Designs Customers should be able to: Save a shirt design Load a saved design Delete saved designs Previous Orders Customers should be able to: View previous orders View the full shirt specification Order the same shirt again Edit a previous design before placing a new order When a shirt is added to the basket, all selected options should be stored with the order. This should include: Cloth Collar Cuff Front Back Pocket Darts Buttons Thread Stitching Monogram Contrast selections Measurement profile used Order Confirmation Email (Customer) A standard receipt is not sufficient. We require a professional order confirmation which summarises the customer's complete shirt specification. For example: Order Number Shirt Summary Fabric Style Options Measurement Profile Price Paid Estimated Production Time Production Order This is one of the most important parts of the project. When an order is placed, production should automatically receive an email containing the complete manufacturing specification. The email should include everything required to manufacture the garment, including: Customer Name Order Number Fabric Code Fabric Description Every selected style option Monogram details Contrast details Measurement profile Complete measurements Customer notes Internal notes (if applicable) If practical, we would also welcome this information being attached as a clean PDF production sheet. Administration We require an administrator to be able to: View customer details View measurement profiles View shirt specifications View production information View order history A full CRM is not required during this phase. Future Development (Not Included in This Quote) The successful developer may also be invited to work on future phases, including: White-labelled reseller websites Trade customer accounts Production tracking Pattern management Manufacturing integrations Customer communications API integrations These features should not be included in this quotation. Our Ideal Developer We're looking for someone with experience in: PHP JavaScript Custom product configurators Clean UI/UX Building maintainable systems Please include examples of similar work where possible. Additional Information We appreciate there are many possible ways to approach this project. We are open to suggestions regarding architecture, plugins and technologies if they reduce cost, improve maintainability and provide a better long-term solution. Our priority is to create a reliable and scalable foundation that can be expanded over time.

The trap in a made-to-measure configurator is trying to make 500 fabrics into 500 WooCommerce variations — that kills the database and the admin. I'd instead keep the shirt as a single product and store the configuration (cloth, collar, cuff, fit, monogram, measurements) as structured cart item meta carried through to the order, with the fabrics held as a custom post type or taxonomy so they stay searchable and filterable by colour, weave, weight and price band. Off-the-shelf where it makes sense — an existing configurator/product-options plugin as the base rather than building from zero — with custom code only for the measurement profiles, pricing rules and the "reorder or edit a previous shirt" flow in My Account, which is really just cloning a saved config back into the cart. Saved configurations under the customer's profile also set you up cleanly for trade accounts and reseller sites in later phases. Happy to start immediately and work in small milestones.

Hi, this is a very solid brief and I like that you want to extend WordPress/WooCommerce rather than replace what already works. For Phase 1, the key parts are the configurator flow, measurement profiles, saved shirt designs, and the detailed customer/production order outputs. I’d approach this in a practical way using WooCommerce-compatible options where possible, then add custom development only where it actually adds value. That keeps it more maintainable and gives you a better base for the later reseller/trade phases.

Hi — Elias here from Miami. I understand you're seeking a custom shirt configurator and customer dashboard for your tailoring company using WordPress and WooCommerce. The goal is to enhance user interaction while streamlining your operations. What usually matters most here is ensuring scalability and maintainability. A common issue in systems like this is managing complex user roles and permissions, especially when dealing with varied customization options. The tricky part is usually integrating a seamless payment gateway while maintaining a smooth user experience. My approach would involve structuring the system with a focus on modular design, making future updates and features easier to implement. I’ve worked on similar e-commerce platforms, ensuring they are robust and user-friendly. This includes handling SVG for custom designs and efficient database management for order processing. A few questions to better understand the scope: Q1 – Are there specific user roles you envision for the dashboard and configurator? Q2 – What payment gateways are you considering for the integration? Q3 – How do you foresee the customization options evolving in the future? Happy to go through the details and suggest the best technical approach. Looking forward to hearing from you.

Hi, I will build your custom shirt configurator with the 500 fabric catalog (searchable and filterable), layered visual preview, measurement profiles, and production email output, all extending your existing WordPress and WooCommerce setup rather than replacing anything. On a similar configurator project for a menswear brand, structuring each option group as WooCommerce product add-ons kept the admin simple and made reorder functionality straightforward. I will set yours up the same way. Questions: 1) For the visual preview, do you already have layered illustrations or SVGs for each collar, cuff, and front style, or will those assets need to be created? 2) Should the production email and PDF sheet follow a specific template your manufacturer already uses, or are you open to a new layout?

Hi, You’re not just building a shirt configurator , you’re creating the system that will carry future trade, reseller, and production workflows without rework. I can help you extend the existing WordPress/WooCommerce setup with a maintainable Phase 1 MVP that keeps costs sensible and avoids unnecessary custom rebuilds. I’ve built WordPress/WooCommerce customizations, product option flows, and order-data handling before, including account-area enhancements, saved configurations, and checkout integrations. For your shirt platform, I’d structure the configurator around reusable product data, measurement profiles, and clean order metadata so every selected option is stored, shown in the account area, and pushed into customer + production emails reliably. I’d also recommend the most practical approach for live preview, whether that’s layered SVGs, image swaps, or a lightweight configurator plugin stack, depending on what gives the best balance of UX and maintainability. 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. Would you prefer the live shirt preview to be built with layered SVG/image swaps, or are you open to a plugin-based configurator if it’s more maintainable? A few details that would help me scope this properly: do you already have fabric images/spec sheets prepared in a consistent format, do you want the measurement profiles stored per user or p

Hello, I will design and develop Phase 1 of your custom shirt ordering platform, delivering an intuitive frontend configurator, a multi-profile measurement system, and automated production PDF workflows. Given your familiarity with WooCommerce and your long-term roadmap for B2B features, I highly recommend building this on WordPress and WooCommerce. WooCommerce provides a cost-effective, secure checkout and account architecture out of the box, while remaining modular enough to support future white-labeled reseller sites and production tracking via its robust REST API. My background includes building custom product builders and advanced WooCommerce database extensions. Will your 500 shirt fabrics require real-time inventory synchronization with an external ERP or supplier API during this phase, or will they be managed statically within the WordPress dashboard?

Since this Phase 1 is the foundation for trade accounts, white-label resellers and production management later, the smart move is exactly what you said — extend WooCommerce, don't replace it — and store each shirt's configuration as structured data from day one so reorder/edit works now and those future phases plug in without a rebuild. I'd design it that way deliberately. Approach: I'd reuse your existing accounts, checkout, payment gateway and cloth database rather than reinvent them, and build the configurator as a custom layer on top. On being cost-effective with plugins — off-the-shelf WooCommerce configurators handle simple options, but your 500-fabric searchable selector, contrast-fabric choices (under/inside collar, under cuff, placket) and a live layered preview generally exceed what they do cleanly, so I'd build the configurator in JavaScript with stacked SVG/PNG layers that update instantly as collar, cuff, front, pocket, back, darts, buttons, thread, stitching and monogram are chosen — practical, not a heavy 3D render. Every selection plus measurements saves as structured line-item and account data, so the shirt adds to the existing basket, flows through your normal checkout, appears in detail on the confirmation, and can be reordered or edited later from the account. I build WooCommerce custom product and configurator work regularly. Muhammad Saad
