Pay to register?

[Dan321]

Hi is there any mod that makes users pay to register, for example if they do not pay then they can not sign up on my website.

It normally works you register first, then pick a subscription to proceed

I dont want them to register, if they do not pay

Then post in paid section and get it made

There were 2 of them, redirecting the users AFTER registration to a page where they have to buy a subscription. For sure one of them was buggy and the coder has closed his site. The other one is on Graveyard.

But as I said, both were working AFTER registration. This is the normal way. How do you think that you can check if someone has paid or not if you don't have any data of him? I don't mean that is impossible. Nothing is impossible. Just is complicating. You must prepare a pre-registration form to collect at least an email address, then save this email in a seperate table etc etc.

You see that site has the thing I want but of course I will disable "Free"

Yes but it let's you register first as it should be. It makes no sense letting a guest pick an option without registering any guest can do it and it will cause problems. It's best to make them register then pick

You're wrong. There is registration before payment:

1.- The message on the next screen (payment):
"You are not fully registered. Please follow this link or check the email inbox associated with your account to complete your registration process."

2.- The registration email:
"Dear xxxxxxxx,

Thank you for registering at Wrestling Forum

Before we can activate your account one last step must be taken to complete your registration. "

So, THERE IS registration. And actually this is the right way.
1.- Register a new user
2.- After login check if the user has a paid membership. If yes, allow him to access the site. If not redirect him to "payment.php" page.
3.- Setup a cron job to remove after (eg 72 hours) any register user who hasn't paid the membership. This way you can have your member data clean from unwanted records.
