There is no zip...:confused:

[Andreas]

Now there is. Didn't work at first - keeps saying "in progress"

Nice to see people expanding on the system. How about buy one subscription get one free offers and such :)?

[gmarik]

Nice idea, Dean ...

Dean, I am kinda green, I don't understand the instructions well and I don't know how to install this hack with xml files.

Give me a nudge and I will send you a small gift via PayPal since this was a hack I have requested.

@gc1
You don't need the XML file if you don't use HTL (Hack Tracking Log).
Just follow the instrustions for manual installation (file otfsubs.txt in the ZIP).

Anybody wanna tackle this and tell me what I am doing wrong?

Can a person be that dumb like me? I've got an error in the TXT, should be onetime and not foobar in the query :ermm:

Run the following query, this should fix the problem:


ALTER TABLE subscription CHANGE foobar onetime TINYINT( 1 ) DEFAULT '0' NOT NULL

I can't run the last two steps, becuase I can't FIND the code sections in my subscriptions.php .... vBulletin version 3.03 Any hints on where these might go in subscriptions.php ?


File subscriptions.php
FIND
// first check this is active if not die
if (!$subscriptioncache["$subscriptionid"]['active'])
{
$idname = $vbphrase['subscription'];
eval(print_standard_error('error_invalidid'));
}

BELOW that ADD
if ($subscriptioncache["$subscriptionid"]['onetime']) {
// Check if user has already purchased this subscription
$usersub = $DB_site->query_first("SELECT regdate FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "subscriptionlog WHERE subscriptionid=$subscriptionid AND userid=$bbuserinfo[userid]");
if ($usersub[regdate])
eval(print_standard_error('onetime_subscription')) ;
}

**************************************

FIND
$costs = unserialize($sub['cost']);
$subscription_title = $sub['title'];

BELOW that ADD
if (($costs[usd] == '0.00') AND ($costs[gbp] == '0.00') AND ($costs[eur] == '0.00')) {
build_user_subscription($subscriptionid, $bbuserinfo[userid]);
eval(print_standard_error('freesubscription_thanky ou'));
}

I know it has been a month since your question, but are you looking at subscription.php or subscriptions.php? You should be looking at the latter.

[rjordan]

An addition to this would be to display FREE in the cost drop-down instead of being blank. This can be done with the following:

In ./subscriptions.php, find:
$subscription['cost'] = $string;
and above this:
if ($string == '')
{
$string .= "<option value=\"\" >FREE</option>\n";
}
Save and upload.

This works for me on 3.0.7. Thanks for this modification!
