Wordpress & Invision Power Board Project

Our client owns a 10000 user discussion forum, and is looking to bridge out into content creation to drive traffic to their site. We are looking for a skilled PHP/MySQL programmer, with experience in coding plugins for WordPress. Our customer has implemented Invision Power Board 3+ and requires WordPress to be integrated. Requirements: - WordPress & Invision single sign on - all user accounts are currently in Invision, this must be retained. - WordPress widgets - in particular, the ability to add multiple widgets of the same type, each with their own settings --- threads from forum x --- images from forum x --- "userbar" functionality as implemented by the Invision software - i.e. show unread personal message notification, etc. - WordPress posting must also create a new thread on the forum - implement plugins/widgets/applications as appropriate without modifying the core components of either software, where possible - Complete configuration options Ideally, the programmer will implement this using WordPress plugins and not require any Invision application installations. We are aware of an existing WordPress plugin that facilitates the functionality, however, it is limited and does not work 100% with Invision Power Board 3+. The programmer may use this plugin for inspiration, however it's source is encoded. We require the programming to be completed and the source code disclosed entirely. As an IT services vendor, we will maintain and continue development of the code.
