Just migrated a Xenforo site to Discourse

I have found one feature I am missing. Memberships. Its stripe centric and I dont have a physical card/bank.

Only paypal.

I have worked around this. Its a bit clunky but it works.

Add items to woocommerce shop that we already have

Add a subscriptions plugin

Add a discourse sync

Do all the API stuff

Added in some code that tracks when a subscription has been added to the monthly or yearly subscription

Syncs with discourse and adds user to the relevant group and once the membership expires it will remove

So , user goes to the shop and subscribes to one of these :

Wordpress triggers that it needs to do something and API sends to Discourse to add the user to the group

Paypal is handling the paypal re-occuring payments.
