Auto PM Premium Membership after payment received

[Residue]

Ive searched around and wasnt able to find anything for 3.5 that had this functionality.

What I'd like to do is have vB automatically send Premium members a 'Thank you PM' after payment for their membership is recieved.

If anyone knows of an existing hack to do this, or could help me create one, I'd greatly appreciate it!

This looks easier than I thought...

Create a new plugin.
Hook Location: paidsub_complete

Plugin PHP Code:

Copy and past the example Andreas gave in the first php code box, just be sure to change the approprate userid and message and stuff like that.

edit: I dont have subs yet, so I haven't tried this out.

Interesting...good find. I will have to mess with this sometime this week to figure out how to make it do what i want.

So I would change the line

$pmdm->set_recipients('newuser', $botpermissions)

to:
$pmdm->set_recipients('paidsub_complete', $botpermissions)

?? Thanks

no, when you create the new plugin, paidsub_complete should be teh HOOK that you use

If you created a plugin how does it know to send Pm to that new member of that premium membership when they sign up??

PHP Code:

 // create the DM to do error checking and insert the new PM 
$pmdm =& datamanager_init('PM', $vbulletin, ERRTYPE_ARRAY); 
$pmdm->set('fromuserid', 1234); 
$pmdm->set('fromusername', 'Welcome-Bot'); 
$pmdm->set('title', 'Welcom to our Forums'); 
$pmdm->set('message', "Hello\nI am a Bot and would like to give you a warm welcome :)"); 
$pmdm->set_recipients('newuser', $botpermissions); 
$pmdm->set('dateline', TIMENOW);
