Paid Subscription by Usergroup

[clearchannel]

I would like to allow specfic usergroups access to purchase a subscription(s)

It worked great in 3.07 by editing the subscription.php file. I can no longer find they syntax I changed in 3.07.

Is this possible to do in 3.50?

Thank you in advance.

subscription.php is now payments.php in vB 3.5

The code is different from version 3.07 to 3.50. Would you have a suggestion for allowing just one usergroup to use the paid subscriptions?

The code I changed perviously is

from

if ($bbuserinfo['userid'] == 0)

to

if (!is_member_of($bbuserinfo, 10))

10 being the usergroup allowed to used paid subscriptions.

Thanks in advance.

Untested...

You should be able to add the following conditional statement around the payment link in templates to prevent it appearing to users who aren't in group 10. Any code inbetween these two tags will only appear to member of group 10.

<if condition="is_member_of($bbuserinfo, 10)">

</if>

You can also prevent users who aren't in that group from accessing the page itself by adding a new plugin with the hook location paidsub_start

PHP Code:

if(! is_member_of($vbulletin->userinfo,10) ) {
    print_no_permission();
} 


This should show an error message for users that aren't in group 10 preventing them from seeing the page.

I apologize, this may be above my skill level

Would you be so kind as to provide more detail.

Thank you in advance.

Download the attached plugin to your computer.

Now install it on your system (Plugin system -> Download / Upload Plugins).

Only users of usergroup 10 will be able to access the plugin system
