Im wanting to set-up a pay pal subscription on my DNN, I noticed that there are Pay Pal fields in the site settings tab but they dont do anything (could someone explain that to me?)

What I am planning to do, barring no good free pay pal module for my project, is to throw in some pay pal buttons that link to pay pal, then have the re-direct from pay pal go to my registration page ( and remove all other registration buttons from the site thus making pay pal the only path to the register page) it makes sense to me ( and I think you can guess from this crazy idea that im quite new to ASP.net )

Im wanting to do the pay pal subscriptions option, so please, any comments on the way I'm planning things or anyone with a better solution would be very much appreciated.

Thanks

Mark

Hi, you should check out this link: http://www.ventrian.com/Products/Modules/SubscriptionTools.aspx. The subscription module sound like it would work out for you. I have it on one of my personal websites to do what you are looking to do. Scott offers 10 modules for $30 (3 month subscription). I have installed this module and then I had to put my paypal information under admin, not host settings. So once you have the module installed, you can set up subscription then it will direct them to your paypal checkout and then send them back to your website. Once they pay for the subscription it places them into a specific role you choose (so you can have them access specific pages only visible to that role). I hope this will help. It works great.

Mark - is there any reason why you would not just use the built-in PP and subscription/role solution?

If you look at Smart-Thinker you will see that to sign up to a role you click on it and you are taken to the PP site. On return you are automatically added to the role. This is out the box stuff and very useful - let meknow if you want me to go into more detail about it...

Mark,

The paypal settings do work. After you set these you need to go into the roles manager (admin->security roles) and configure a role to have a billing fee, etc. Once this is done a user can go to his profile and choose to subscribe to a role. Then there are ways to make these options more visible too. Just dig around in DNN, there is a lot in there.

HI, sorry to take so long to get back to this thread. Im still a little confused about using the out of the box PP module mostly due to my DNN not having a module for it. I can set the pricing via "admin - security roles" but Im not sure how to implement that onto my site as a selectable option for the client. One more problem is that in the page settings you can set the field to Japanese Yen, but in the admin security role area all prices come out in dollar amounts.

Thanks for all the help
