Project description:
"I'm looking for a developer or small team to build a sports prediction website.

The goal is for everything to run automatically. I only want to post articles, moderate users, and manage basic rewards (just placeholders, not a real reward system).

Website Structure
Main site: [login to view URL] (WordPress)
All user engagement happens directly on the main site.

Main Site (WordPress) - Core Features
Articles / News Section:
Sports portal (football, basketball, etc.) with SEO-friendly structure.

Score Prediction:

Auto-generated match list (synced from a sports API)

Users submit score before kickoff

Auto-lock before match starts

Auto-scoring (3 pts exact, 1 pt correct result, 0 wrong)

Points added to user profile

Leaderboard:

Auto-updated (daily / weekly / monthly / all-time)

Cached for performance (precomputed data)

Rewards (Placeholder only):

Static reward page showing available prizes

"Redeem" button (dummy / manual link only)

No backend approval, shipping, or stock system

Live Chat per Match:

Real-time chat (Firebase / Ably / Pusher free tier)

Auto-closes 1–2 days after match ends

Basic moderation: word filter, rate-limit, report button

Email Notifications:

Weekly digest (top scorers, next matches)

Reminder 24h and 3h before match start

Semi-automatic (admin clicks "Send")

User System:

Register / login / profile

Points, history, and badges visible on profile page

Automation
Pull match data & results from an external sports API (API-Football / Sportmonks / [login to view URL]).
Schedule cron jobs (server-level, not WP-cron):
Fetch fixtures

Lock predictions

Update scores

Compute leaderboard

Send email batch

No manual input required for matches or scoring.

Technical Setup

WordPress 6.x + PHP 8.x

MariaDB/MySQL + Redis cache

Custom plugin "ScorePrediction Core" (prediction, scoring, leaderboard, cron, API, chat embed, email)

Docker Compose deployment (WordPress stack + Redis)

Cloudflare for SSL, CDN, and caching

Deliverables
Working WordPress site with:
Prediction, scoring, leaderboard, reward placeholder, chat, and email automation

Documentation (5 pages):

Deployment setup

API & cron configuration

How to rerun or restart jobs

Backup & restore guide

Maintenance checklist

Source code & handover:

Docker Compose

.[login to view URL] file

Git repo access

Testing checklist:

Match auto-created & locked correctly

Prediction submitted & scored

Leaderboard updated

Chat works & auto-closes

Weekly digest & reminder email sent

Please confirm:

Can you handle the full WordPress setup (with automation, scoring, and live chat)?

Which sports API will you use (API-Football, Sportmonks, etc.)?

Will all automation and scoring logic be built into one plugin?

Estimated cost and timeline breakdown?

Any similar past projects (prediction, leaderboard, automation, or SSO)?

Goal:

A simple, clean sports prediction platform with gamification and automation.
Not betting, not complicated. Everything runs automatically behind the scenes.
Admin only manages content and users, no manual work required.

Budget range: USD 700 - 1500
(Depending on speed, documentation quality, and completeness).
