I require an experienced CAD architect to update an existing site plan drawing with an accompanying schedule of accommodation. The schedule should clearly articulate the proposed internal layout and dimensions of the residential units marked on the external plan. A sample drawing is provided as a visual reference to ensure the final output aligns with my design vision.

I am seeking a skilled WordPress developer to implement a booking and membership management system on our website, which caters to driving simulators. This system should enable customers to register and create user profiles to purchase and manage memberships, which will offer a set number of no-additional-cost bookings per month. Additionally, the system must allow hour-by-hour bookings as a guest without registration. Specific System Details: User Registration: Users should be able to register and manage their account, which is necessary for purchasing and managing memberships. Memberships: Example - Basic Membership: Includes 4 bookings per month, valid only on weekdays. This is an example of how memberships might be structured.

Guest Bookings: The system should also allow non-members to book simulator sessions by the hour as guests, providing just their name, email, and phone number. Technical Requirements: The system should be easy to manage from the WordPress backend, allowing administrators to adjust the number of bookings and view membership statuses. Preferably, use existing WordPress plugins and/or customized solutions for effective integration.
