Quote/Bidding

    I have seen a lot of people throughout themeforest seeking a quote/bid functionality “marketplace”, but there really are not any options for themes or for plugins. This is a hot new feature that many sites like fevvr and dogvacay.com are using.

    Your plugin works amazingly well, but is it possible to add a feature where a user can click the “Apply” button, and then when filling out the application they can use a slider to choose their price (salary, hourly, etc). And then when the application is submitted, the job poster receives it in their profile and can either accept the price offer, or counters with a different price?

    Once either party is happy, they can “Approve” the bid, or “Deny” it if it is not sufficient from within their profile/alerts page. If this is not possible… can you at least add a slider to the contact form? I am currently looking at this theme:

    https://themeforest.net/item/jobify-wordpress-job-board-theme/full_screen_preview/5247604

    Which uses your plugin. I am not sure if Gravity forms controls the Application form on the job profile, but a slider would be awesome. A bidding feature would be even more awesome – so that the website owner could make some type of commission off of the bid.

    Thanks!

    This isn’t a scenario I’ve developed the plugin to cover.

    From your description, it looks like you’d need a custom application system for the bidding and approvals. I’m not sure if you could hack gravity for ninja forms for this purpose, or if you’d need a custom system built but it’s not something the core plugin will do. I will log the idea anyhow for future consideration.

    I’d love a quote/bid functionality too!
