Subscription Form

boogieman 06 Apr, 2009
Hi All,
I need someone to assist me. I need help cleaning up my existing Registration Form, plus i need a 2nd for "Called Subscription" which is available to registered users only who wish to renew thier subscription.

basically the following:
Subscription Type: Radio
Renew: Radio
Subsciption\Renew date: Time Stamp
If subscription is past due to show in red.
Stamp same time and date from initial registration.
If renew date expires to cancel subscription

Any takers? Can pay with PayPal. thanks in advance.

Hi boogieman,

I'm pretty full up at the moment but could perhaps do this next week if no-one else has offered.

What does the form need to update - is this just a local database table or is there a payment link to e.g. PayPal?

How do you expect the 'cancel if expired' piece work? Only if the user checks the form - or do you have some background process in mind?

Hi Bob, Thanks for getting back to me.

My issues are as follows! I have a table that i use for Joomla Registration. Becauase i use this with my Contact Manager I need to separate FIrst Name and Last Name. My form has first name and Last Name, and a hidden field for name (which i want to auto populate with the data from from firstname lastname fields). You may have seen this in another thread. I have been unable to get it to work. And now it no longer registers the users but the records are still created in my db.

Second I want a simple method for my users to renew thier subscription. The subscription should last 1 year and expire. There is no payment module currently as the magazine is free.

Third - i want a time stamp on my emails as i use these for auditing purposes incase. Its nice to have the records in the db but i also have the email registrations that i back up. I tried inserting the code <?php echo date("Y-m-d")." - ".date("H:i:s"); ?> into my email template but it shows a blank for the time when the email recieved. I've also tried {recordtime} Still nothing.

Thats it. I am using the current release V3.1 RC4

Thanks.

Hi Alex,

I think this is now all resolved excpet the renewal bit.

To do this I'd add a check on some page - could be the home page - or some place that members will go to regularly and add a snippet with Jumi to check if their registration date is coming up and if it is show a system message (or a module ) with a link to a renewal form.
