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

UPGRADING: Do NOT choose 'yes' to overwrite an old xml or you will get an error!

In payments.php, if you could add a check that when the cost is empty AND a coupon is used, then instead of issuing an error that the wrong currency was chosen, it simply skips payment, and goes to the next step, where the user is added to whatever group goes with the subscription.

Also, your latest posted version of vbcoupon was last April. You were hoping to get to several user requests at around the beginning of September. How's that coming? I want to install the mod, but will hold off if you're preparing for another release soon.
Personally, I do not think the problems lies with the mod. The mod is doing its job well enough. But anyone knows how to go about skipping the invalid currency error when the amount becomes 0?

I also discover a bug when i tried to set a coupon for a one-time only use. Apparently, if I set the coupon use to 1, the coupon will not work. But if I want it to be used for only one time, I have to set the value to 2. Anyone face this same issue?

And again: Ditto.

Looks promising. Would like to take a look at it.

However, seems Ringleader has gone AWOL - which should be an invite to someone else to take this over?

I wish I could... Would love to get this Mod up-and-running...

It Works With 3.8.2!

Download it and read all the instructions and do what it says then:

Fine Template vbcoupons Templates > Expand > vbCoupons_couponbit > Edit >

Find The First Form:

Code:
</form>
Add Above:

Code:
<input type="hidden" name="securitytoken" value="$bbuserinfo[securitytoken]" />
2nd form:

Code:
</form>
Add Above:

Code:
<input type="hidden" name="securitytoken" value="$bbuserinfo[securitytoken]" />
-----

This should now work if you followed these steps and the steps in the installation file.

1.4 version?

Are you sure its actually working have you tried to use it to see if it deduct when you actually have to make the payment thru paypal or which ever service. thats where i ran into issues it looked as if it was working but it wouldn't recalculate when it went through the payment api.

I cant see the pics im at work photobucket is blocked, so ill look when i get home.

I wish ringleader would port this to 3.8 or any coder for that matter.
