Allow registered users a buy option to sticky their thread · **Released**: 01-22-2006

This mod allows you to present a buy option to registered users so that they may make a PayPal purchase to sticky their thread in its forum for so many days. See screenshots.

It basically works liks this: registered user clicks sticky this thread link, a link that appears for those forums you allow and only to the thread starter. User fills in the number of days to sticky thread, clicks submit, gets total price, clicks purchase, pays via PayPal, and PayPal's IPN kicks in, sending postback information to this mod, which automatically sticks the thread. After the number of sticky days passes, the vB scheduled task of this mod automatically unsticks the thread. If there's a purchase or problem with purchase, you'll get an email.

Of course, you need to use PayPal's IPN and have your board set to accept PayPal payments, so do a test run to ensure PayPal's IPN postback information is correctly processed. If you make any money from using this mod, I expect a cut. LOL, just kidding, but do click install should you use this mod.

I haven't put this into production with customers yet, because I'm making some customizations (per forum ability to add additional text information on the purchase threads page explaining what they are buying), but my test purchases on 3.6.5 with the stock code work fine.

The mod uses the same Paypal information as the paid subscriptions.

For those of you that have been using this hack, have members been buying stickies?

but would probably be useful in a website advertising section on your board, and if they want there advertisement standing out, then they can pay to have it stickied ^^ I think this is the only way id use it currently.

can this mod be used in chosen sections only, as i dont want it possible to sticky threads in all sections.

Thanks.

I've marked as installed but I'd like to know the above as well before I use this. Thanks.

I'm curious if this works on 3.6.8...

It would be amazing if this could be used for other things, like purchasing an avatar or custom title for other users, etc.

it's nice! it's available for 3.6.8.?

Wow this is cool would be nice if it used usergroup permission though so that only certain usergroups can use this feature...
