WordPress E-Certificate Portal

Job ID: 40123215

Budget: ₹1,500 – ₹12,500 INR

I need a WordPress-based portal that lets me create and issue e-certificates through a clean, responsive interface. The workflow is simple: I pick a certificate template, enter recipient details manually, and the system generates a downloadable PDF while logging every field in a table that I can export to Excel anytime.

Key points the build must cover:
• Runs smoothly on a standard WordPress install, preferably using a lightweight custom plugin (no heavy theme lock-in).
• Template selection drives the design; I should be able to add or swap templates later without touching code.
• Manual data entry forms map directly to text placeholders on the certificate.
• All submitted fields save to the database and are exportable as .xlsx or .csv on demand.
• Generated certificates download instantly and stay retrievable via a unique link.
• Front end and admin screens must be responsive and secured against common vulnerabilities (nonce checks, sanitization, reCAPTCHA, SSL ready).

I am open to widely used libraries such as dompdf, TCPDF, or similar for PDF creation as long as the final file is crisp and print-ready. Please outline your proposed plugin structure, any third-party dependencies, and an estimated timeline. Once the core is stable I may add bulk upload or deeper design editing, so clean, extensible code is important.
