WordPress Multi-Page Voting Theme
Budget: $250 – $750 USD
Show me what theme you want to use
I’m building an awards show site on WordPress and need a tailored voting experience that spreads naturally over several pages. Visitors must create an account before casting a ballot, and I’d like both email verification and the option to sign up or log in with popular social platforms (think Facebook, Google, X, etc.) baked in from the start.
Core flow
• Landing page lists all award categories.
• Each category opens to its own page where nominees appear with images and short bios.
• After choosing a nominee, the voter is taken to a confirmation page that records the choice, prevents repeat voting, and displays current standings (percentage bars are fine—no raw numbers).
Technical notes
• I’m happy for this to be delivered as a lightweight custom theme or a dedicated plugin that works inside my existing theme; whichever achieves smoother updates and easier maintenance.
• Clean, extensible code is essential—please avoid heavy page-builder dependencies.
• Standard WordPress user roles are fine; just ensure only logged-in users pass the authentication gate.
Acceptance criteria
1. Multi-page workflow functions on latest WordPress and PHP versions without console errors.
2. Email verification link must activate the account before a vote is stored.
3. Social login covers at least two providers and respects WordPress user creation policies.
4. Duplicate votes are blocked at user level; IP or cookie fallback is a bonus.
5. Front-end matches my awards branding (colors, fonts provided after kickoff).
6. Clear installation guide included so I can replicate the setup on staging/live.
If this sounds clear, let’s lock in the best approach and timeline so the ballots can open on schedule.
And a nominations page to nominate those to be voted on later
