How to run tial membership & put a paypal subscription button

[Irfan Faruki]

Hi
I am starting up a forum where you have to be a paid memeber to get access to certain part of the forum. But because i am just starting this forum up, I want to give users a trial membership to paid section where they can try it for free for 15 days and then either they can subscribe to it or their access should be changed to regular member.
Can anyone tell me how do i go about doing it?

The other thing i want to do is. At the moment, I made paid section of the forum private. So if the regular member tries to access it they are denied the access. What i want to find out is that is it possible to put up some kind of message that says that this section is for paid members only and put a paypal button there which will give them an option to subscribe and give them instant acess to the paid section if they want.

Any help on this issues will be really appricated.

Regards
Irfan
