In answer to your questions:
1. The theme is specifically designed for freelancers to bid on projects and advertise their services, so the short answer is yes.
2. The theme is escrow ready so the money can be held until the project ends. You can read more about this on the
HireBee theme information page and
how it works page
3. Admin can be notified of new jobs and users can subscribe to the RSS feed.
4. As above, RSS notification can send an email.
5. Yes, this can be done at the completion of the project.
6.
Site owners can also monetize on freelancers proposals via “Credit Plans”. These are similar to pricing plans but they use a credit system that enables freelancers to send and/or feature proposals. Credit plans can be set to be sold as single or packs of credits.
7. You can find project plan options on the
HireBee admin demo here to give you an idea of the settings available.
8. By default, the theme is set up for just one freelancer to win bidding on a project.
9. There is no forum integration in the theme itself, this would require use of a plugin or customization on your part. Our themes are not encrypted, so you are free to make modifications if you wish.
10. The default user types available are Employer, Freelancer, and Employer/Freelancer
11. This is not a feature of the theme and would require customization
12. There no specific limit for this in the theme as it's essentially down to what WordPress itself can handle, since HireBee uses the native WordPress user functionality. Thanks.
