This could be done with a GD script...

And you could create a new field within the subscriptions table to store a randomly generated membership number for the duration of the subscription... Then at the end of the subscription term, another script will clear the number from the database and send an updated list of valid numbers to whomever it is intended...

i.e. Bob buys a 1 year subscription to a music forum. When this subscription is processed, he has access to his membership features, and can download a picture card id to have laminated or whatever he chooses to do with it. On this card, is a randomly generated number that is stored in a field in your database. When the subscription expires the number becomes invalid, your automated script sends the updated list without Bob's number on, and therefore useless to Bob if he tries to use it again to gain membership discounts or whatever.

Sounds like an interesting project... I may take the time to do a little investigation into this on my day off

Chris

<font color="darkgreen">I think its getting overly complicated. You will have to give each and every vendor a active list of whos subscribed. Now if you do like some auto insurance companies do with priting out a membership card with their info on it and a watermark and valid date range, vendors would only need to see that its active. Yet still its suscptable to duplication as its only am matter of how badly someone wants to cheat the system, eventually they will be able to fake anything. </font>

That system above is not over complicated - It only sounds complicated but really, it's a randomly generated number individual to the user and has an expiry date. The list could be in any format imaginable; RSS feed for vendors, printable list of valid subscriptions, email of valid users, displayed list on your website accessible only to the "Vendors" usergroup users...

This would be possible but if it were to be released, you would have to manually enter your subscription usergroup because everybody's is different..

Back to the opiginal request, I don't want a vendors card, or subscription paid card or all the other stuff.

I would like The Registered Users Group, to be able to print their own membership card.

So if member named ( Johnny ) logs into the forum he would click on his CP and select membership card then it would take him to a special page that display a membership card with his name on it, and the rest of the card be generic to my forum logo etc. can anyone of you guys do this I am willing to pay.

I don't charge for membership. Keep it simple please

Thanks

Just use one of the mods here that adds another vB styled page. Add a username/registration date variables to it and your images. Then add that page in the User CP menu, and that's the membership card thingie.

Half the issue is over with group permissions; the other half is just figuring what style you'd want for that membership page.
