Membership management system

[jalal]

Hi All

Anyone have a suggestion for a membership (or subscription) management
system, whereby members of a site could pay and renew a subscription?
(Worldpay, Paypal integration would be good).

I've had a look at aMember but it doesn't integrate too well with Xaraya.

Any other suggestions?

cheers

Thanks John.

I'd never heard of it... but I found it lurking in the 1.1.2 full distro.

I'll check it out.

Would it be better to extend it or base a new module on it?

Could do either, but prolly working on it would be best.  The majority of
what you want is already there, but I haven't touched it in a couple of
years, and don't plan to work on it any further...

OK, I've hacked around on it quite a bit... but now the question is, whether
to create a new module ('subscriptions'?) or try to fix an upgrade path for
pmember.

Thing is, I've changed quite a lot around:
* can now setup different types of subscriptions (monthly, annual, student,
gratis etc).
* removed the dependency on the PayPal modules and setting it up for
whatever payment modules are installed (I need Worldpay as well).
* added some admin screens for managing subscribed members.
* added hooks to get a membership extension module as I need a lot more
fields than are in Roles
* some other stuff.

I can't actually see an easy upgrade path at the moment, so my feeling is to
make it a new module. But I thought I'd get feedback on whether that is a
good idea or not. (I'll keep John Cox as one of the authors as I have some
of the original code in there).

Rule of thumb, always take the easiest path;)  Make a new module out of it,
and get it included in the packages.  I don't mind that the pmember is
retired for something obviously much better.

and who am I to argue with the ancients?

BTW, is there a reason to have PaypalIPN and PaypalSetup as two separate
modules?

Was at the time because of something with the DD props, but probably not
now.

If you register your module and submit it for download, it can be
considered to be included in the package. If you like that, please
contact us!

Will do. Currently in working form (let's call it "alpha")... at some point
I'll test it against a mtn build and if that works I'll let you know.
What is the process to 'submit it for download'?

Simply register and announce a release. If you don't have a location to
offer it for download, then we can provide one. Contact me directly if
needed.

Hi.

I need also to manage different user groups with payment options. In
stead of re-invent the wheel again, has this new mod ever seen the light?

Yes, it's been in production use for over a year now. I created two
modules, a subscription module and a worldpay payment module.

but...

despite my best attempts to make it a 'generic' sort of module it
still has some parts that are very specific for tthe site that I
created it for, so before I release it for general use I need to go
through and pull out the site specific bits. Not a big job and I'll
try and get to it soon.

cheers
