Paid forums
 

Im about to purchase vbulleting and have a few questions...

I would like to have certain forums in my forum only viewable to paid members. Is there a plug to do this, if so what is it? Does it support multiple levels of users (say silver, gold platinum) with each level having different access? Or maybe is this already built into vbullletin.

I would prefer paypal to be the payment method

Thanks!

Subscriptions is the name of what you need... included as a default feature in vBulletin for 2 years already... in a lot of colors.

no need of hack. you give the ability to your members to pay a membership, which will give them permission to a specific forum, or even a feature, like access to private messaging, editing others messages, etc.

and vBulletin can be used with Paypal, and 5 other default payement systems.. and you can even ask to have other ways to pay.
