PHP Developers Network

Hi,

My site is built with codeigniter. It's like yelp. I'm trying to build the business owner admin https://biz.yelp.com/support (similar to Yelps), but having the hardest time figuring out how to do this. I have some of the pages setup. I'm new at code igniter and php. Any suggestions to how I can accomplish this faster? Is there someone that can help me?

Thank you,
Richard

What have you tried, where are you getting stuck, what errors are you encountering?

Haven't tried much. I had a friend of a friend working on the site, but his wife got sick. So, he hasn't had time to complete this section. I've watched some tutorials online, but don't feel I can learn how to do this fast enough as I'm trying to get my site up asap. Any suggestions?

Thank you,
Richard

My first suggestion is not to rush it. Get the site up when it's ready, and not a moment before. Are there people already waiting for the site to be live? Have you already made an announcement? A delay in going live is one thing, but visiting a site that feels half done or doesn't work right is a pretty good way to hurt your credibility and make people not want to come back.

That said, if you have little knowledge of PHP itself, much less frameworks, you're probably best hiring someone to code it for you. You could also try finding volunteers, though that can really be hit or miss.

Thank you for the advice. Any suggestions on hiring someone?

Thank you,
Richard
