WooCommerce Website Redesign & Navigation Upgrade

Overview
We are an established UK-based online diamond jewellery retailer looking for an experienced WooCommerce developer to carry out a redesign and navigation upgrade on our existing WooCommerce website. We are also expanding our product range to include lab-grown diamonds, which requires new filters to be added. All work will be carried out on a staging environment first, with sign-off required before anything goes live.

Scope of Work
The project covers three areas:

A — Mega Drop-Down Navigation Menu
The current site has a basic single-row dropdown on one menu item only. This needs to be replaced with a full mega drop-down menu across five product category pages. The desktop version will have up to five columns (Shop by Style, Shape, Type, Metal, Price) and the mobile version must use a collapsible accordion layout. All icons and assets will be supplied by us. The menu must be built in a way that allows us to add, remove, or rename options ourselves in future through the WordPress admin, without needing a developer each time.

B — Homepage Redesign
We have a new homepage design mock-up which will be shared after hire. Key changes include a new hero section with updated photography, a redesigned Shop by Category grid, an updated promotional banner, and cleaner typography and spacing throughout. All blue-coloured text sitewide (product headline links and hyperlinks) is also to be changed to black globally.

C — New Product Filters for Lab-Grown Diamonds
New filters need to be added to shop and category pages using the existing YITH WooCommerce Ajax Product Filter plugin (already installed and active). This includes adding a Diamond Type attribute (Mined Diamond / Lab-Grown Diamond), updating the Gold Colour filter options, and ensuring all filters are easily editable going forward through the plugin settings.

Staging
A staging environment is already set up. All work must be completed and reviewed on staging before anything is pushed live. We will handle the staging-to-live push ourselves after sign-off.
