Allow user to enter amount in a subscription

[Tailfeathers]

I use the Paid Subscriptions feature to allow users to make contributions. I have $5, $10, $20, $30, and $50 set up, but it'd be nice if a hack would allow a user to enter a number of their choice for a specific subscription (which could be used for contributions).

I know this thread is old.. But I was wondering if anyone has ever actually attempted this? I could really use this for my non-profit site.

Cheers!!

I too am interested in this.

I am willing to donate with others to have a hack available for this. Same goes for Categorizing and deleting options.

ANyone else willing to help donate to this cause to make Paid Subscritions a much better hack.

Is the paid subscriptions a hack or a feature?
URL link anybody to the hack?

This could be possible... but I highly doubt anyone would do this for free, as you'll be making money out of it...

Thats my guess too.

I am not looking to be the only donor either, if we can find someone talented enough to build it the it should be done. I am willing to put a few bucks along with others to make this public for everyone to take advantage of.

I guess I could do this. If you want it developing by me you will have to contact me via PM, include features you want, the (admin & user)interface you would prefer and you will have to be prepared to give me access to either your development board or your production board + ftp + phpMyAdmin.

Unfortunetly you thinking of a one time one fee type of deal and that is not what I was asking here.

I don't wish to be the single donor. Plus I do not plan on giving admin privilages to anyone. I am looking for someone to design this hack or Modification and people will donate towards it.

Thanx

The alternative is that you can either wait till I can afford to buy another Vbulletin license, domain and hosting. or untill someone else develops this.

Admin Interface: I take it you would just want one subscription type to be a variable amount, but how would you like to set the subscription manager to use the variable donation rather than a price... (and minimum donation etc)
Or would you like hard-coded options rather than an enhancement of the whole subscription system.

[EZ-Dozet]

Not really,

for me personally this is what I would require.

- I need to be able to delete members form Paid subscription like it was any other command.
- I would require to be able to categorize different subscriptions into a group. So if I have one group that has several pricing options all the names would go under the group name jsut with different due dates for the payment they made.
- I would liek to have an option where I can make one or two subscriptions varable for I would have serveral uses for them.
- Then If it is possible I would like to have the opertunity to select my dates to send out renewal notices via e-mail. Rather then having to go inot the code and manually do it and with the possibiilty of screwing up.

That might be it for the moment. Iam sure others can come up with more ideas.
