Read moreRelatively new to Drupal - Looking for Consultant / Help
Hi All,
My name is Mark and I'm relatively new to web design and Drupal. I've been working on a project for the last 4 months and I'm finding myself stuck. Though I know exactly what I need to accomplish, I can't seem to figure out how to accomplish it.
I'm wondering if there are any Drupal experts local to the Harrisburg area that would be willing to offer consulting services. I primarily need help with...
-Recur billing
-International Payment
-Site Design / Styling - CSS, Theme customization, etc.
-Access Restrictions based on role and/or date.
Looking for intern/assistant
As many of you may know, I am afflicted with ALS, more commonly known as Lou Gehrig's disease. It has left me unable to type on the computer or use the mouse with my hands. I still can use the computer with my eye gaze tracker, but it is not optimal for coding.
