Mini Mods - vbCoupons - offer money-off coupons for paid subscriptions

vbCoupons v1.4

About this mod:

This hack allows the user to input a coupon code that deducts the value of it from the subscription costs before they go to pay for a subscription.

For example:
1. You advertise for new members and have and advert saying 'Join before the end of April and get 40% off the first month! Just register and enter coupon code OFFER1"
2. In Admincp -> vbCoupons you configure a coupon called OFFER1 with value of 40, and set a date for the validity of the coupon.
3. User registers, and enters coupon code OFFER1 on the payments.php page. The page updates the normal subscription prices to reflect the offer. Then they go to pay for it.

Notes:

1. Since the offer code expires when you set it to, the users will not be able to renew with that coupon unless the subscription runs out before the coupon validity does; thus it's better to use short-validity coupons and constantly change them.
2. The value of the coupon in the Admin Panel is given as a monetary value, e.g. a coupon with value 3.50 will give $3.50 (?3.50; ?3.50, depending on currencies activated) off paid subscription before the user goes to pay for it.

Features:

* Manage Coupons: Singly Add/Edit/Delete; Mass-delete.
* Set coupon valid for particular subscription ID's.
* Limit use by date or times it can be used.
* Mass-Generate coupons for distribution.
* Generate coupon discount codes and post to a new thread in a specified forum. A message may be sent with the codes. You can decide the thread title too.
* Input on features you would like to see for this hack is very welcome, but may not be possible to implement.

Time to install: 5 mins

There's nothing set there for subscription id's.
The file edits are to be done for version 1.3
Update to 1.3 files, add the subcription id to the coupon, and it will all be sorted.

Edit: it's only that the file edits are wrong for your version, and that's it.

You need to set a number of uses the coupon has.
If unlimited, just set it to an unlikely number.
