Project Overview -

Using Wordpress as a Hive front end seems like the obvious key to true web3 and beyond power and decentralization.

Wordpress already has a widely used, vast and trusted marketplace. Why not build into that?

We now have the tools that enable anyone, anywhere to spin up a Hive front end using WordPress and OWN their content and #web3 presence. This process can be very easy or as custom and complex as you need.

The DiggnDeeper Project would like to self fund and attempt to raise further funds for development of a plugin that can be used to syndicate content across any major blockchain platform such as #Hive or #LBRY or whatever other blockchain platform might show up and become relevant.

I have been using the #Exxp plugin for a very long time. I really like the plugin, but I found myself wanting more features and I think it would be interesting to explore adding additional blockchains to syndicate to, specifically LBRY.

I have been on the Exxp Discord and asked a few times about these additional feature requests. @howo has responded to say that some of the features were discussed/ developed for a Pro version in the past, but I guess that didn't come to fruition and now they seem to have stepped away from the project. There have been no responses in more recent attempts to discuss this further.

Can I help?

So, now I am looking for a developer that would be interested in helping me get this started.

I'll start off with my current wish list. I can already see how it may need to be split up, but we'll let the devs figure that out.

Functionality needed:

Set beneficiaries for Hive. (This is the most important feature)
Allow publishing of pages, not just posts. (Also a priority)
Needs to work with blocks and such.
2-way integration - similar to the Exxp plugin.
Would it be possible to use Hive Keychain for Hive users to log into WordPress for integration? Could this then be used to make a WordPress site basically a Hive front-end? That would be amazing...
Graphics, marketing material.

WordPress, Hive and/or LBRY Developer Needed

I have been looking for a dev on Hive, but now I will look outward, on platforms like Fivrr. I have had good success finding help on my projects on there the past.

Open Source License

We will need to pick a good license. It has been a while since I have looked into this so I need a crash course, but I would probably lean toward an MIT license or something very liberal so that a business can take it and re-license it if they wanted.

Not sure. Like I said, I need a tune up on my understanding of this subject.

Funding

Self Funding the Start

I will fund initial work myself.

Hive Proposal System

This plugin project can be self funded by me, but I would like to step out of my comfort zone and try the proposal system. If this project could be successful all on Hive, then that could be a really good example of how #opensource should call this their home.

I like to document everything, so I think I could do a good job of making my lessons work for others to advance on.
