vB 4 beta version: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=241224

Paid Subscriptions are a means of driving revenue for thousands of forums but what do you do when a subscription is about to expire? On most forums, if the subscription does not recur automatically, users lose their status and only if they notice a change in benefits do they think to renew. By proactively informing users of their subscription expiration you can help increase paid subscription renewal rates and decrease support inquiries from subscribers.

Notifications Options & Customizations:

The Subscription Notifications System can appear on your Forum Home and/or User CP pages and can display the following messages:

Expired Alert
24 Hour Alert
48 Hour Alert
7 Day Alert
1 Month Alert
Long Term Membership
No Membership

All of these messages can be configured using phrases and customized with HTML code to meet your forum's needs.

Each message is enabled/ disabled through your vB control panel with a link provided to modify the message contents using the phrase system.

Modifications/ Instructions:
Template edits: 1-2
Plugins: 1 (adds 1 template and several phrases & settings)
SQL Queries Added: 1-2

This addon should take under 5 minutes to implement and customize. Note: Minor template modifications are required for this addon to show up (see instructions file for more details)!

Compatibility with 3.6.x versions:

This addon will work with 3.6.x but the admin cp phrase links will appear broken. Users of 3.6.x versions will need to manually search for the phrases to customize.

Updates:
- 12/24/2008 - Minor bug fix to support table prefixes
- 08/26/2008 - Minor bug fix to change expired subscription message.
- 06/12/2008 - Update recent subscriber feature
- 06/06/2008 - Update to fix urls to relative path
- 06/05/2008 - Update to resolve bug with date format and multiple subscriptions

Credit goes to tspore for providing the original idea for this addon.

Any chance of getting "Latest Subscribers" added to this product?

That would be a bit different than the intention of this addon. That said I can probably still help you... where would you want this to appear?

Please Note: An updated version of this addon has been posted which addresses the two known bugs. Users should now see the properly formatted expiration date for their subscription as well as show data from the farthest away expiring subscription. If your users have multiple active subscriptions this means the one that expires in the longest amount of time will be what the system uses to key messages.

An upgrade is recommended. To preform an upgrade, simply upload the new product file with the option "Allow Overwrite" enabled. This upgrade will only change the plugin code and will not alter customized phrases.

Well the standard vb does send out a notice on subscriptions... I'm surprised nobody has mentioned this?

Something weird is happening with the new version of this mod. In the top left corner of all my styles is the word "no". When i disable the mod, "no" goes away and when i enable it, it comes back. I've done this back and forth many times and its the same thing every time i enable it.

Why is it doing this?

Sorry about that... I left my debug mode on. Please download the new version.

The email is wonderful but it's only one touchpoint and comes out just before the susbcription ends. Reminding people via email gets them thinking but they may forget to act... seeing it again when they're on the site is just another way of reinforcing the message. For some forums all the messages make sense, for others just one or two and of course for some, none.

It seems there are some path issues. It thinks it is in the root directory of my website when it isn't so therefore the link is not correct on the "Click Here". I don't see any place to adjust this for the path so I am assuming I need to do that within the xml itself?
