tell you what, i will contribute $20 aswell as i need this mod aswell... but i want a simple import process if im paying for it... :) Keep me updated...

Bump - Has anybody used this or something similar to implement Pay-to-Post in 3.6????

Just move the redirect of the event forum new_thread_start to number 6, this way buy thread executes first. They are both at the same hook.

Shouldn't be too hard to replicate this plugin for calendar. At new calendar event start check to see if that calendar id is tied up with a forum that has buy thread activated. If it does, then kick in the buy thread option.

sames here....would really love this mod.........

Can this work on specified forum ids only??
Probably wont be so hard? to do this??

I'm trying to implement a paid support section on our forum, to replace our ticketing system.

This mod is running fine on my 3.6.5 installation. Posters that were having problems with the mod, could you explain your issues?


Also, after purchasing thread posts, the default is to redirect back to the forumhome. Here's how to redirect back to the newthread page on a purchase or the forum if not.

Style Manager->Your Style->Edit Templates->ptpnt_buythread_form

Replace:

with:

Just an FYI for those complaining this doesn't work. It does work, but the reason you have the illusion it doesn't work is because you're admins and threads are by default free ;) Log in as a test user in registered group, and it works fine, although transactions don't appear to be being logged.

P.S. thanks for the post above echamberlain, saved me 5minutes tracking it down myself.

Another issue I noticed last night, was the logic for checking if the user is entitled to post any more threads is incorrect :)

Has anyone managed to get this code updated???

Updated for 3.6.8 is what I meant to ask. Ayone?

Is anyone successfully using this on 3.6.8?

Thanks for the hack calorie! I may install this later.

This MOD is killer. Like Merriweather, I'm curious if there are plans to uplift this to 3.7???? When that happens I will be sending over a thank you payment. ;)

I would also like to have this for 3.6.8 if possible

anyone?

Anyone know if this works with 3.7?

i have installed this on the latest version of VB 3.6.10 and thus far I can not get it to work. Regardless permissions set - when the user click to post a new thread - it simply states that they do not have the permission to post. There is not option to buy anything. It is set in the forum as on.

Suggested feature: Offer discount based on number of posts. i.e. if someone is new to a forum or doesnt contribute much post-wise then charge $15.00 -- if they post alot of content and help alot of other people with their questions then $7.50.

3.71 anyone?

i'll love to see this hack for 3.6.8 to 3.7.1 too! pleaaaaaaaaassse (i have it in admincp but nothing appears when i click new thread to test, on my 3.6.9 :( )

I'll add to the chorus for such a feature on the latest vB.

Hi guys,

I'm looking into this myself. If I end up having it, I'll fix it up for 3.7 then ask Calorie if I can release the updated version.

Please Do!
I had this coupled with GARS (I think Calorie took that on too) & it made for a killer Classified ads system without the need to require users to buy a subscription, kinda pay as you go, so-to-speak.

The last release seems to work fine with VB 3.7x other than the security token issue.

Any recommendation on where to add the security token?

Thanks.

Great stuff, calorie. Thanks!

Works on my 3.7.2 PL2..

Only thing is I'd love the added ability to take away or give a credit. Paypal is notorious for not reporting back and giving the user credit. As well as other huge problems with paypal. In all these cases it would be nice to enable the user to make their post instead of having to give them a refund every time.

I'd pay someone to do this happily...

Someone please update this for 3.7.3....

How much money do you want?

Did anybody every get this Mod to work in VB 3.7.3?

Or did everyone abandon it? Man, it's a good mod, and I'd hate to see it not get updated.

I also know that some people have installed it on the 3.7.3 version without problems.

I keep getting this error:

This is the only place in the forum I get this error to come up.

If someone has a fix for this problem, I'm willing to pay them.

Anybody?


Thanks ...

If the sec token is the only issue, then search this and Jelsoft's forum, it takes 1 line of code to fix. They introduced that in 3.6.10 IIRC.

Hey Wired,

Yup, sure did, but thanks for the response.

Someone helped me in the discusion forum, and I had it fix about 2 minutes after I posted this message. ;)

Could you please post the fix here.

Sure here it is:

you must update your template

In your Admin CP under Styles & Template select Search In Templates...

Search for:
HTML Code:
Code:
value="$session[sessionhash]"
In every template this occurs in add this line directly after the line containing the above, if it doesn't exist already:

PHP Code:
Code:
<input type="hidden" name="securitytoken" value="$bbuserinfo[securitytoken]" />
Save the template.

Hope this helps ...

Are there any other mods similar to this one?

Works on 3.8 for me.

Thanks!

Did you have to modify the template?

Yeah, go to this template:

ptpnt_buythread_form

And search for:

"$session[sessionhash]"

Then add this right after:

<input type="hidden" name="securitytoken" value="$bbuserinfo[securitytoken]" />

Thanks g0dfather1984, got it to work.

Anytime.

Thanks for this plugin. However, when I tried to use it on my forum, after clicking on "Submit", I got:

"Fatal error: Call to a member function shareads() on a non-object in /home/xxx/public_html/forum/includes/functions.php(5721) : eval()'d code on line 11

My vB version is 3.8.1.

Any idea or suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

Is it possible to set this up so it takes reaccuring payments?

Thanks!

I want to not allow anyone to register unless they have a paid subscription. I do not want people even viewing my site for free. Would this system work for this purpose or is there something in 3.8 that I have missed that would do this without any add-ons? Help!
