Pay to Register
 

As my first release, I figured since so many were wanting this I went ahead and re-released it. As with the original, this still only works with Email Confirmation Turned OFF. I will look for a way around this issue in the future.

Pay to Register is only meant for 3.8.x as I have no idea if it will work on earlier versions.

To install:
1. Go to AdminCP -> Plugins & Products -> Manage Products -> Add/Import Product
2. Browse your computer for the xml file you download from this thread
3. Click import
4. Continue reading to check to make sure this mod is pointing to the right location of your payments.php file


For those installing, follow these instructions after importing the product.

1. Go to AdminCP -> Plugins & Products -> Plugin Manager -> to the right of Pay to Register click Edit
2. Check that this line is correct:
3. If that line is not correct then update by removing '/' or adding 'forum/payments.php'.

Any questions please do ask.


NOTE: Those that click install will get priority support over those that do not click install.

- installed thanks man -

NP, glad to see its getting installed right away.

Does anyone know if it is possible to set up a free subscription I want to have three options...
1) Free Member where they can sign up but not get access to all of the forum features
2) Basic Member - where for a small fee they get some of the websites features etc
3) Elite Member - where they unlock all features.

I would love to use this mod to run this system but whenever I put 0.00 as the cost of a subscription it tells me i need to enter an amount.

EDIT: Never Mind when I deleted the 0.00 it worked

Good to know you got it working.

One problem, if the user go out payment script, this is not required, need modification to get required the payment and not simple redirect..

Thansk.

Thats why this runs off of subscriptions. If they don't pay then they can't view anything, as the subscriptions are setup once they pay they are moved to a usergroup then they can start viewing the forum. This is only supposed to be meant as a simple redirect after registering.

Just what I was looking for!!! Tagging for now but will click install when I install it :)

Any chance of making this work with Google checkout?

Nice work, thank you!

Installed

Very good mod but i have an issue: i use a mod called Force Users to Read a Thread
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=172155

which makes your mod to be bypassed...is there any way around this?

Fynnon: The only way I can see around that is setup the must read thread to all usergroups but the one that is say the beginner usergroup. So you have Non-Payed usergroup and Payed usergroup, you would then make Non-Payed the default usergroup when they signup and go to pay, so when they pay they will become Payed and then that popup will appear for them.

schlottkej: Basically this is just a redirect, not sure how google checkout works, if you include google checkout as a payment option then nothing more would have to be done.

I would use this mod if it was compatible with invitation system.

Users can either buy to register on the forums, or if they get an invitation they can sign up for free.

Silver Tiger: Link me to the invitation mod and I'll see about an integration.

Thank you so much!!!

I will install tonight and test it out. I'll let you know how I make out.

:up::up:

Think I might have a work around to that using just a simple if condition. I'll check it out.

Clicks installed!!! Working fine for me.

Nominated as this was so needed.

So, what does this mod do?

You have a usergroup set up to view nothing that everyone is placed in when registering, to view everything that person pays. So this mod makes sure they are redirected to the payments page as soon as they confirm registration or finish registering.

Just an FYI, you would use the hook register_activate_process to have this action performed on email activation. Unfortunately I did not like how there was no longer a message confirming the user's registration was completed.

Any screen shots?

Again, you cannot provide screenshots for a redirect when there is nothing to see. Its a redirect, you don't get a message or anything, it redirects to the page instead of the homepage.

ewelin: I will look into that hook, might be one a bit further down for use.

make it like this and everyone will love you for it lol

Hear, Hear!

Nice release!

*Clicks Marked as installed*

this mod would be good only if : after they register and get redirected to the subscription page, people cannont leave that page unless they subscribe (pay) !
I`d like for my forum to make registration to be for those who pay, normal users 5$ and VIP 15$ !

VBUsers: nice idea, I will give it a go around in the near future. Give me some time.

Fynnon: I will look into that as well and release at the same time as VBUsers suggestion.

thanks m8

good mod thanx for the mod

I am very interested as many others are of this mod. Release it and I personally will make a donation as well I am sure others will.

*tagged* will watch this

Installed! Thank you so much! :D

x500000000 thousand infinity!

If you could do this or something like this http://www.gixxer.com/forums/payments.php

I would throw donations at you like it was cool!

Anything? I am willing to make a good donation for this mod.

I was thinking the same myself - After years of spammers, fakes and oddballs, I'm no longer worried about quantity of members - just quality - Integration with the invitation system would sort it out completely.

interesting.

I've had to put everything on hold, the company I was hosting with got hacked and all my data was lost. I only did monthly backups so it wasn't time for a new one, so I am having to restore a backup from mid June and some info I worked on will be lost. So for a week or 2 I have placed all my addons and such on hold till I get things settled in regards to my site.

I second this as well. Autoguide.com uses this format on each of their vb-powered forums. They said they've written a custom script for it, but now that I've seen this, I tend to believe a third party has developed this somewhere.
