Hello,
This, along with your groups plugin, makes for a perfect solution for my multisite! However, (I’m sure this gets requested a lot) are there no other payment processing options besides PayPal Standard? I want to integrate my merchant account with this, but I would need at least PayPal Pro to do so (preferable Authorize.net). Are you planning on adding more payment processing options in the very near future?
I wold buy this plugin without a second thought if it had Authorize.net integration!
Kevin
Yes, both will be available – the option for PayPal Pro is being developed and Authorize.net is on top of the list. Can’t promise an exact release date for these but both are a must and it won’t take long
This is great news! Do you have an estimated release date? This Year? This winter? Early 2013?
For PayPal Pro it should be this year, others following shortly including Stripe.
Ok, so I purchased Groups PayPal but I’m having a few issues:
1. How can I use my own buttons to “subscribe” instead of using a shortcode? Or at least a shortcode that shows only the button. I have a pricing table with a “Sign Up” button on the bottom of each subscription level.
2. When I create a subscription, I’m not able to change the page template. I’m stuck using a blog template.
If you want to see exactly what I’m working with, go to: http://omnoogle.com/peek and click on “Google AdWords Pricing” under “Packages & Pricing”.
These two issues are keeping me from using this plugin at all. I’m disappointed that I just spend fifty bucks for a plugin that has no flexibility.
You can do both, for #1 have a look at the shortcode’s attributes on the plugin’s documentation page (at the end of the page) – for #2 you can place the shortcode pretty much everywhere, you just indicate the
idof the subscription (this is also documented on that page).Hi, I have a pre-purchase question. I am selling to registered members a subscription that allows them to add a custom post-type for advertising their services. I think I can see how this is done with your plugins, my question concerns being able to offer either a choice of fees when subscribing or a to be able to fill in a fee that they choose. I know this sounds unusual but this site is very international and I want the fee paid to be representative of the local economy and personal circumstances . Its sort of a ‘donation’ but not really.
I hope this makes some kind of sense. The groups plugin is an absolute god send for what I am trying to do, so thanks for developing it.
Cheers, Mark
Hi Mark,
As the prices are set for each subscription a payment option where the buyer can choose the amount as with a donation button can’t be done directly. One solution would be to offer several choices which grant access to the same groups. Of course another option would be to just place a donation button on the page where people can join a group, you wouldn’t need this plugin to achieve it, just the usual PayPal donation button and using the short codes that Groups provides. I hope that somehow helps, if you want to use the first option I think a good idea would be to offer something in addition when people pay a higher amount.
Cheers
I purchased Affiliates Enterprise as well as Groups Paypal because I’m hoping to use affiliates enterprise with paypal integration along with groups paypal to make an overall solution to being able to have affiliates sell subscriptions to my membership site. I started hooking everything up though and it seems that these are mutually exclusive since they have differing IPN requirements. Did I miss something in the documentation?
Groups-Paypal says to set it to groups-paypal/lib/ipn.php and Affiliates Paypal says to set it to the affiliates page (I think) either way, I think they’re different.
They can be used together but we need to ‘communicate’ them, can you please contact me here?
Looks rough – I know but I can not get this plugin to work… I see the subscribe button – login and everything disappears upon next load. Is an SSL required to run this plugin?
Thank you
Have you configured the settings in Groups > PayPal correctly? The Checkout button isn’t rendered so either there is something missing in the setup or there might be a conflict. Can we have a look at the admin?
Would you add other payment checkouts, like google checkout. Or maybe a module for other payments.
Yes, Stripe and PayPal Pro are also going to be available.
Hi, I was wondering if it is possible to use discount coupons?
Hi,
now does not support the use of discounts coupons.
cheers
