Allow registered users a buy option to sticky their thread

This mod allows you to present a buy option to registered users so that they may make a PayPal purchase to sticky their thread in its forum for so many days. See screenshots.

It basically works liks this: registered user clicks sticky this thread link, a link that appears for those forums you allow and only to the thread starter. User fills in the number of days to sticky thread, clicks submit, gets total price, clicks purchase, pays via PayPal, and PayPal's IPN kicks in, sending postback information to this mod, which automatically sticks the thread. After the number of sticky days passes, the vB scheduled task of this mod automatically unsticks the thread. If there's a purchase or problem with purchase, you'll get an email.

Of course, you need to use PayPal's IPN and have your board set to accept PayPal payments, so do a test run to ensure PayPal's IPN postback information is correctly processed. If you make any money from using this mod, I expect a cut. LOL, just kidding, but do click install should you use this mod.

can you modify this to allow someone to make a thread in a particular forum ( not sticky, just plain thread ) at a cost per thread he makes? Such as a land lord posting his houses for rent. Each time he puts up a house in the "housing for rent" forum category he needs to pay a certain amount?

I just re-read how this works it may not need modifying

we may just need to think outside the square to get it to do what we are requesting

I will install it and try something

This mod is what I have been looking for.

After testing it in our dev environment, I see that the make it sticky option isn't in a location most users will find.

Has anyone modified this to also put the sticky option in other places?

what I am wondering is can this mod be expanded for vb3.6 and for new calendar events -> so that every time a user decides to put up a calendar event he is prompted to pay a certain set amount per event before it is posted/goes live on a calendar....

now THAT would be sick.

Does this work with 3.6.4 (or .5)?

Can you give more info on the integration with Paypal? Do you need a separate account with a different IPN from the VB paid subscriptions?

Thanks!
