Description
Experience Level: Intermediate
Estimated project duration: less than 1 week
The site only has a few small files and needs to be updated to work with PHP 7.2 by 20th July, 2019 (see screenshot).
It has 5-10 subpages and one of them lists a bunch of PDF's… which is the main feature of the website.
There is no shop function, only an article search and contact form. The site hasn't been touched or updated since ages.
AVAILABLE:
- A spare domain running on PHP 7.2 with a copy of the website. (Good to check your code in a live environment on the platform used by the client.)
- There is access via FTP or SSH (although fairly limited since it's a virtual host).
- The client has no access to phpMyAdmin, but I can reset the password in the web-interface of the hosting platform [goneo.de – German-only] and also create a new database if needed. (We would need to time that with the start of the project, since I'm a bit afraid that the search function of the live site breaks in case a config file might have to be updated or something alike… I'm no PHP expert, maybe I worry too muche here.)
TASK:
- check the code for compatibility issues (which I imagine is a nightmare when switching from 5.6 to 7.2)
- make the changes so that the site (code + database) works with php 7.2
- alternatively rebuild the site… whatever works for you and is faster to do
---
It would be great if you could give an estimate with the time it will approximately take you or preferrably the fix price you'd demand. (It would also be great to know when you can start/finish the job.)
Cheers,
Patrick
