Mini Mods - Pay to Register

As my first release, I figured since so many were wanting this I went ahead and re-released it. As with the original, this still only works with Email Confirmation Turned OFF. I will look for a way around this issue in the future.

Pay to Register is only meant for 3.8.x as I have no idea if it will work on earlier versions.

To install:
1. Go to AdminCP -> Plugins & Products -> Manage Products -> Add/Import Product
2. Browse your computer for the xml file you download from this thread
3. Click import
4. Continue reading to check to make sure this mod is pointing to the right location of your payments.php file


For those installing, follow these instructions after importing the product.

1. Go to AdminCP -> Plugins & Products -> Plugin Manager -> to the right of Pay to Register click Edit
2. Check that this line is correct:

PHP Code:

header("Location: /payments.php"); 


3. If that line is not correct then update by removing '/' or adding 'forum/payments.php'.

Any questions please do ask.


NOTE: Those that click install will get priority support over those that do not click install.

Very good mod but i have an issue: i use a mod called Force Users to Read a Thread

which makes your mod to be bypassed...is there any way around this?

Fynnon: The only way I can see around that is setup the must read thread to all usergroups but the one that is say the beginner usergroup. So you have Non-Payed usergroup and Payed usergroup, you would then make Non-Payed the default usergroup when they signup and go to pay, so when they pay they will become Payed and then that popup will appear for them.

schlottkej: Basically this is just a redirect, not sure how google checkout works, if you include google checkout as a payment option then nothing more would have to be done.

I would use this mod if it was compatible with invitation system.

Users can either buy to register on the forums, or if they get an invitation they can sign up for free.

Silver Tiger: Link me to the invitation mod and I'll see about an integration.

Think I might have a work around to that using just a simple if condition. I'll check it out.

So, what does this mod do?

[Excalibur82]

You have a usergroup set up to view nothing that everyone is placed in when registering, to view everything that person pays. So this mod makes sure they are redirected to the payments page as soon as they confirm registration or finish registering.
