I’m looking for an experienced WordPress / WooCommerce developer with strong WoodMart theme experience to continue and complete an existing staging build.

Remaining work to complete: Remove placeholder content (banners, testimonials, images) Review and clean up plugins (remove unused/outdated ones) Finalize homepage layout using WoodMart components Optimize category and product grid layouts Remove placeholder category pages Product migration (start with a small test batch before full import) Verify WooCommerce flow (cart → checkout → account) Website speed optimization after product import Project rules (non-negotiable): Staging site only (no live site access initially) WoodMart theme only (no theme changes) Work must be done using a child theme Micro-milestones with visible deliverables Payment released only after review Communication must stay inside Upwork Budget & milestones Total remaining budget: $1,200 Project starts with a paid test milestone ($100) Additional milestones released only after successful completion of the test To apply, please include: Confirmation that you have worked with the WoodMart theme before Links to 1–2 WooCommerce sites built with WoodMart that you personally worked on A brief outline of what you would complete in the first 48 hours Confirmation that you are comfortable with staging-only access and small milestones Generic proposals will be ignored.
