WordPress Custom Plugin: myCRED & Messages Integration

Job ID: 39520787

Budget: $30 – $250 USD

Project: WordPress Plugin – BP Better Messages + myCRED Integration (Paid Attachments)
Description:

We are looking to develop a custom standalone WordPress plugin that integrates with the BP Better Messages plugin (AJAX version) and myCRED. No core modifications to existing plugins are allowed.

Goal:

Authors should be able to send file attachments to subscribers via BP Better Messages and assign a price (in myCRED points) to those attachments. The recipient (subscriber) will see a blurred preview until they choose to purchase the attachment using myCRED points. Subscribers can only send free attachments to authors. All other role combinations should function as normal (no pricing options, attachments are always free).

Functional Requirements:
Role-based behavior:

Author → Subscriber: Can set a price from 0.00 to 10.00 myCRED points via dropdown when uploading attachments.

Subscriber → Author: Only free attachments allowed (no price selection).

All other combinations: Attachments are always free (no dropdown, no purchase option).

On the recipient side:

If the attachment has a price, it appears blurred/pixelated.

A “Buy for X Points” button is shown; clicking prompts confirmation.

Upon confirmation, points are deducted from the recipient (via myCRED), the author is credited, and the attachment is revealed.

Technical considerations:

AJAX-powered purchase flow.

Attachment price saved as post meta.

Fully compatible with BP Better Messages (AJAX version).

Point handling via myCRED (add and subtract functions).

Must follow WordPress coding standards.

No core changes to BP Better Messages or myCRED plugins.

Proven experience with WordPress plugin development

Strong skills in PHP, JavaScript (AJAX), WP hooks, custom user meta, etc.
