Thanks that is perfect :)

you can run execute SQL queries in 3.0.7 from AdminCP > Import & Maintenance.

I'm about to install... see how it goes with a test subscription, recurring every 2 days for a dollar.

My damn vB isn't sending registration e-mails right now.. POS.

Amy, can ask you how to do this:

I can't find any access masks specific enough! Thank you!

Create a usergroup with the permissions that you want your paid members to have.
Change the permissions of your registered usergroup so that they can't see the threads, posts, etc.
In your navbar template, do a conditional to show a link to subscribe to your registered usergroup. After they subscribe, promote them to the new usergroup with access.

Making this work is going to hinge on how good you are with template edits and such so that you make it clear to your users what they need to do to see your content.

I would also edit the template that users see immediately after they register. The screen should inform them that the final step is to pay up.

But, this bit of advice is off topic for this thread. Please post your future questions in the other thread so that others may help you as well.

Curious if the reoccurring Email reminders problem was solved?

Reocurring email reminders was not a problem with this hack as far as I know. What was solved is that it stopped emailing people who have pay-pal subscriptions which automatically renew.

Make sure you didn't change the frequency that the subscriptions cron job runs. If you did, your subscribers will get multiple emails.

Yea Amy, that was what I was asking.

So, I was looking at the coding and it looks like it would be relatively easy to add in trial periods (PayPal allows for up to 2). You'd just need another 2 variables (trial period 1 and trial period 2 -- you can enter -0- if you don't want trial periods) and this hack would offer ALL the functionality PayPal offers...

Has anyone else added in trial periods?

I noticed the notification url form field is missing from this hack:
Is it deliberate? It causes vB to not perform any action after payment has been made, if there were some actions set (such as usergroup change and forum permissions updates).
