I am still researching the free/paid feature. I think adding a new page after the terms agreement I should be able to get something.

Mod UPDATED

Mine is currently setup using the subscription process built into VB. A user signs up and he is a regular member who has access to read only a few selected forums. I am using the "Limit Guest Viewing" mod modified so they can only read 15 posts and then it tells them they need to be a paid member if they wish to read anymore posts and of course it tells them all the other access they will have.

I would prefer they have to only pay before they can do anything. The way I have it was an idea our club came up with and it isn't that successful.

Does that help?

Thanks ;)

First problem I found is after registration it sends you outside of the forum directory thus not finding the payments.php file but giving a 404 page error. That is an easy fix but I thought I would let you know.

I fixed the path issue and it works like a champ! Great job!

Yeah, I can't help that part as the user should update that to make sure it goes to the right place. I might just use a vb setting to handle that.

Hi

Am having the same problem where it comes up with a page not found error instead of going to the payments page.

Am running VBulletin 3.6.5, and the way the forum is setup is so that people need to purchase a subscription to be able to use it. So this mod is what I need, but cant seem to get it working.

I found that for for some reason, I needed to take the "/" from the redirection url to avoid a 404 error.

To do that just goto the plugin manager and edit the code for Pay to Register.

I'm assuming the error occurs becasue vb is auto adding the "/" on the end of the forum url. So you end up with // and a 404 error.

I am running 3.6.5.


Thanks for the script by the way ;)

Thanks Max for pointing that out, I will get it updated ASAP.

I im trying to have my regsitrations closed all week but fridays (free), but give tho option to pay to get registered if visitors cant wait till friday.
Is that possible??

Can anyone say if this hack actually works now, I have just updated to 3.6.7

and I don't understand the first part of the instruction, why would I rename my exsisting user group to pending, would I then have to make all my currently registered members pending members, just to create another registered user group :erm:

Saying that I think this is exactly what Im looking for, to automate what I already do manually, At present I take a donation then add the donating member as a new user and email them a password so they can login,

titodj, it would take a little modifying but its possible. Give me a few days and I'll add another download that will allow you to do that.

Hull Driver, yes this works with 3.6.x. Your renaming your existing usergroup only if you have trial memberships, if you just have people pay to join your site then leave the usergroup as is and move on with the instructions. I will update the instructions over the next few days with alternate for trial memberships and pay to join memberships or both.

Having the same issue, Im using 3.6.7
anyone know how to resolve this

Cheers
Kev

Thanks for that, only thing that worked for me :up:

I dont have a url in there just this

header("Location: $vboptions[bburl]nuts/payments.php");

I added the nuts bit (the location of the forum), should I be adding something else:eek:

what I would like to happen is something like this

I have set up a usergroup called welcome visitors (permissions for all to view), it has limited amount of threads so vistors get a feel for the site, should they then want to join in they click to register and thats where I was hoping this script takes over, letting them make a donation (which incidently I collect on behalf of a cancer research charity) then they upgraded to a full registered user, but as in my above post, its not happening

and could someone give me a clue as to how to do point 4 in instructions properly, I been looking at doing it via the promotion bit, but not sure thats right

sorry I'm not at full speed on VB yet as a convert from Phpbb

Hull Driver, if you are not fluent in vB I do no suggest you continue trying to install this mod. The most I can do is offer to install it for you, you would need to PM me admincp details so that I could install and get the mod working correctly.

sweet, and i did get it so it gives you a option

i made this page out of a simple mapped image and edited the xml to redirect to it first ;)

this is the image, bottom buttons are mapped to proper urls

I want to use this hack in combination with Invitation hack...

I want to use it like this:

Normal registration costs money, but its free if an existing member invites you...

Is this possible?

Not too sure, all I can say is test it with the invitation hack and see the outcome.

Thanks

Not a problem

Censtudios: You don't set a price with this mod, it reads off of your subscriptions and redirects when they first register.

Is there a way to let users register, but only as a 30 day trial period? THEN require payment (every month from then on)

Help me get my head around this

That would require the subscription system, easily setup without using a mod such as this one.

Hello all,

I have recently purchased VB and i also have Joomla. I purchased BBPixel which bridges the users from VB when they register to Joomla. My problem is that i do not want to let the users get intot he registered group because then they have full access to our Joomla site and forums. I can use this addon no problem but i am not sure why the users can just hit the main forum or anything like that when it comes to the subscription page and they are in the registered group already. i think it is from the bridge plugin doing this and i am not sure what to do. i have tried the pending group but still no luck, this bridge must be throwing them into the registered group before they get to the subscription pay area. I tried to hook the pay registration on the first thing when they hit the registration button but not sure if that will work. Can anyone maybe help me in the right direction? I just have to not let users become registered without paying.

The site is www.diyprojectorkits.com

just hit the forums button

Thanks

i am a newbie..please tell me where to place this in the code of the admin CP-->

OnTheSideDesign & batmandr: Send me a PM with better contact details so that I can talk you through the setup.

works for 3.7?

As far as I have heard no, I will attempt to test this on 3.7 as soon as I finish up on another mod.

instead of taking the user to the subscription sign up page it takes them to a You Don't have permission to access this page. I guess its redirecting to fast abd doesn't give the forum time to send the cookies after registering? Has anyone else had this problem ?

That permission page is because they don't have permission to view the subscription page. You need to make sure guests and registered users can view the subscription page.

I am receiving the 404 Error. Upon registration, it tries to take me to register.php?do=addmember which causes the 404 error. I am using version 3.6.9. Suggestions? Shouldn't it be trying to go to payments.php? Thanks!!

Tomnjoy: You are correct, I will try to get this updated for you tonight.

after install this Mod can i also register free along Pay Register or i can justregister Pay members only

Just add subscription for 0.00 and that should cover it.

Installed on vb 3.7 and its working fine.

Thank you

great to hear gwerzal

nice one,works in 3.7 RC 3

my Q thou is how do I remove the left hand side bar from the payments.php page..

Is this possible and how :D

--------------- Added [DATE]1208797623[/DATE] at [TIME]1208797623[/TIME] ---------------

I'd link to know that too :rolleyes:

The left hand side bar is removed via the template. My mod has no control over that.

The sprintuser.com site is using my mod as well as I helped them set it up to work properly on their site. They might have changed since then but not sure.
