Find a Village Contractor

Some villages prefer that all contractor requests go through the village office so that village staff members can followup with members to make sure everything was satisfactory. Other villages allow members to look up contractors on their own, from among the list of vetted contractors in each service. This module handles this need.

This function can be found on the Control Panel – Communications tab. It is a standard module so it can easily be added to the members menu, available to be selected at any time.

There is no admin side to the function, just a user side. So clicking the Edit (pencil) or View (eye) icons display the same screen, shown below:

Click the Message for Members button to include a message to display to users when visiting the page. You will see the standard content editor when creating your message (see Content Editor).

Select a Service Category and the Service list will refresh to show just services in that category. Select a service and the lower part of the screen will refresh to show contractors who provide that service, as shown below:

Contractors are shown on a Google map. Below that is a listing showing the with the company name and a contact person, address, and phone numbers. Buttons are available to send an email and jump to the company’s website. If ratings have been recorded for this contractor, they will also be shown, as will any special discounts or programs for village members.
