What is vMembers? Say a member buys your good via a vB subscription. If the good is a script, the members goes to vMembers, wherever you have it installed, and can download the script. However, before the member can download, the member is prompted to insert a domain name for the script and agree to your license agreement.
vMembers does not require any vB database or file changes. vMembers adds several templates, a bunch of phrases, and one new file with its own queries. While vMembers uses vB to login, vMembers does not need to be within the vB forum directory. You can install vMembers in its own directory, and name the new file what you choose.
vMembers works off vB's subscription and profile information. There is no ACP options for vMembers. Other than config settings in the new file, you can control vMembers using the current ACP. If you know how to run vB's subscriptions, then you can run vMembers. If you do not like vMembers, check out Ron1n's vBPurchase here.
If you install vMembers, click the install button. This allows you to receive update notices, should any be sent. It is also a nice way to say thanks!
Fine Print: Obviously, use at your own risk. Support is not guaranteed. vMembers may not be redistributed!
Template Updates (26 June 2005):
- sessionhash not sessionurl in hidden input of vMembers download template
- changed %px to just % in div style element of vMembers footer template

looks great. what's the main difference between vbpurchase and this?
From just a cursory review of vBPurchase...
vBPurchase 1.0.0:
- uses its own set of MySQL tables
- needs a minor vB file edit or two
- uses its own routine for PayPal
- set options via the vB admin CP
- runs within the forum directory
vMembers 1.0.0:
- uses vB's set of MySQL tables
- does not need any vB file edit
- uses vB's subscriptions/profiles
- set options in the file itself
- runs wherever you install it
This is not an exhaustive comparison.
Surely there are some other differences, but
basically it's two ways to do roughly the same
thing. Pick whatever one suits you better.
