Looking For A
I am a go-to freelance xenforo developer for many board Admins for custom coding.
I have been working with Xenforo since XF1.5.x. Coding for both versions of XenForo provided me with a clear understanding of how XF actually works and how to convert abandoned or Custom addons coded for older versions. I follow XF recommended code ethics and make sure my code is compatible with third party addons and XenForo Updates.
“Software Engineer from Pakistan”
I used to code plugins for Vbulletin and setup forums for people in good old days, When facebook groups were not very popular Forums and Communities were winning. With the popularity of FB groups and to engage the people a powerful and highly customizable forum software was needed. Unfortunately, Other forum software’s were lacking all these capabilities and people were losing interest.
Xenforo was launched adressing these pain points and provided a developer friendly interface and class extensions, Custom JS framework, Hooks and many other awesome features. These features made a developer’s life easy to convert the ideas into functions. Board admins got a robust and highly customizable forum software. They started molding it to suit their targeted audience .
With a very few developers who can code for XenForo i switched my jo. I started working with some best XenForo Developers in my town as a full time team member in 2016. This is when i fell in love with it and abandoned development for other forum software’s.
I started working as a freelance xenforo developer in 2016 and unfortunately there were very few resources to learn about XF Development. I used to download and read code of some famous Xenforo addons and custom solutions written by the Dev team i worked with. This process was hectic at that time, but i am glad that i am one of the few skilled and best xenforo developers who provide freelance services.
These are some of the core freelance xenforo development services i provide.
As a XenForo Programmer i have been receiving many requests from different Forum Admins to fix the unexpected issues that happen to their forum. Some board owners try to keep the things simple and hire someone for monthly changes and health check or Banner changes etc. If you are looking for someone to work with you on a fixed monthly rate for bug fixing and maintenance. I am available to help you with that. I can co-operate with your server staff and moderators to keep your forum running without any issue.
Xenforo staff provides great customer support and their software is secure and simply great. This is what made hundreds of forums switch from Vbulletin etc to XenForo. Although, XenForo provides default importers that can be used to import data from some famous forums. Still unexpected results are possible and it is recommended to go with a professional to handle your migration. I can handle your forum migration to xenforo using best practices to make sure nothing is missed and so that you do not lose your seo efforts.
With the launch of XF2 many boards have already improved their forum technology by upgrading to xenforo 2. As an experienced XenForo developer i can help you make this move with proper analysis. I make sure to upgrade forums by taking complete backups and check the addons that would not be compatible with the newest version. If some important addon goes incompatible i can either code it from scratch for you or upgrade those to match with the version that you are upgrading to. I have also converted many addons to XenForo 2 that were being used at the XF1 but the author is not available to upgrade
I can create amazing XenForo 2 Styles matching your home page or other Content management system like wordpress that you are already using along with your Forum. Recently i have coded some custom styles for Some big boards that are available for demo in my blog’s section. Like XenForo addons, for the Development of custom themes and styles a developer needs good understanding of XenForo template engine and the idea of template modifications and template variables. The styles that i create are always done using xenforo coding standards and proper template modifications where needed.
While there are already many custom addons being made by companies and programmers available at resources section. Still most of the time board admins need some additions or customizations to match their needs. Most of the xenforo developers do not like to work on existing addons because it is difficult to follow the code logic of the original author. I think i have spent 40 percent of my development time in past 2 years customizing existing addons. It helped me to know about new things and techniques that developers follow.
As a XenForo developer i can code custom addons following the standards set by XF team. While there are many issues with most of the custom solutions like direct SQL queries in the controllers, Poorly designed Entities and Repositories. I always make sure to code secure and lightweight addons for the best performance and page speed. The best results can only be achieved if the developer knows about the database structure and how XenForo class proxy system works. I have alot of experience under my belt to code a perfect xenforo addon based on your requirements.
