How to build a job board with Memberstack: implementing dual user roles, profile management, and post counting? Answered

Hi Community it's my first time here I hope you can help me 🙌

I have a client who wants to develop a job site using Webflow, where companies registered on the site can post job proposals and freelancers registered on the site can apply for the job.

The payment logic for each project is as follows:
Company -> My client -> Freelancer

To develop this type of platform it would be necessary to have two types of registration on the same site, one for freelancers and another for companies that want to post their projects.

It is also necessary that each type of member (Freelancers and Companies) can edit their profiles independently.

Is it possible to develop this kind of process using Memberstack?

Is very urgent!

Thank you very much in advance,
Sebastião Lino

    Hi Sebastiao,

    It is not possible to create a 2-sided marketplace with Memberstack natively.

    However, you can use third party services to make it. For example, a Webflow, Memberstack, Airtable, Zapier integration. And you will likely need some custom JavaScript code.

    Hi all,

    Long time Webflow user but I'm new to Memberstack. I have a potential client project and I'm trying to figure out if it's possible with Memberstack. Basically, the client wants to create a version of a "job board" where service providers can sign up, and create and manage their own public facing profiles. Profiles would contain a bio, contact info, profile pic, work history, etc. Site visitors can browse through the directory of service providers and contact the best one for their needs. It would be somewhat comparable to this: https://www.jamsadr.com/neutrals/

    Is this doable in Memberstack? Will I need to use other services to make all of this work (airtable, make, zapier)?

    Thanks for any suggestions!

    Cc Julian Galluzzo has some great templates and tutorials that explain how this can be done

    Hey there! You will most likely need make, I don't think you will need airtable. These 2 templates will be good resources for you on this!

    Thanks for the resources!

    Julian Galluzzo I was able to follow along with your public members profile and it looks like it can do exactly what I need. The only problem I am encountering is at the 9:24 mark in your video - you map the "custom fields: cms-id" to the item - for some reason I do not have this as an option. Everything else seems to be in place. Any ideas? Thanks again.

    No problem!! You have to make the CMS ID as a field in memberstack, and also update the item with it after it is created!

    Is there a way to implement a conditional counter that increases by one each time a specific button, such as 'post a job,' is pressed? The goal is to visually display the number of job postings on our website in real-time, allowing us to track and showcase the daily or weekly frequency of job placements. This counter doesn't necessarily need to store data permanently; it's primarily for immediate visibility on the homepage.

    It is! I actually have that in the premium job board template - in this case, it updates a custom field using a make scenario
