If you are willing to let us root around your site for a few hours, please send us a note using our Contact Form by the end of the day on Monday, March 8, 2010.

(NOTE: Please Do not send usernames and passwords in this initial response; we’ll get in touch with you to make the exchange.)

Here are the details:

1. We need FTP access – username and password. If you can’t provide this, we understand; please do not apply.
2. We also need access to your database. This will require username and password access to your server or Control Panel (PHPMyAdmin).
3. You must be running the latest version of WordPress.
4. You must be running PHP5
5. You must have Business Directory installed and active on a live public page.
6. You must backup your site files and database prior to our testing.
7. You must understand that we will be working on your site, and thus it may go down (up to 48 hours). We will do our best to prevent the site from going down for an extended period of time.
8. You must agree not to change the structure of the site (by adding plugins or changing a theme, etc.) while we are looking at it. Adding posts is not a problem.

We will:

1. We will test your site for a maximum ‘testing period’ of 48 hours.
2. We will keep your access information safe and secure. We will uphold your privacy and will not share any details of your site files, structure, etc. with anyone outside our testing process.
   1. We will delete our access information at the end of our testing and will not revisit the site after the testing period without your written permission.
3. We will do everything in our means to keep your site up and alive, however you must understand that your site may go down for a brief period during any point during the testing period (48-hours). We don’t anticipate that it will go down at all, but it could.
4. We will work to fix the problem on your site. We do not guarantee a fix, but it is our intent to do so.
5. We will not charge you (of course, but I knew it had to be said).
6. We will select a small handful of candidate sites and then respond to you. Please don’t take it ‘personal’ if we don’t select you.
7. We will build any solutions we find into a new version of BizDir and post it for everyone to enjoy.

Submission Deadline: Let us know by the end of the day on Monday, March 8, 2010.
