Gave it a test run. So far, smooth sailing but Iāve noticed two things:
When a card gets declined, for whatever reason (mistake while typing the number, for example), the gateway returns a āSorry, an error occurred.ā I am guessing it wonāt give custom notifications such as card declined? Also, when the error happens, the fields are no longer editable. You have to reload the whole page to start over.
Any way to change the /league in the URL?
By the way, thank you for the permissions addon, it works great!
I actually have two different clients wanting to use this plugin right now that want to use different gateways. One is using FirstData and the other is Stripe.
My plan is get the FirstData bit out the door first (no pun intended) and then work on Stripe. So those should be coming out in the next month or so.
I would be very interested in stripe. I havenāt tested if this plugin works for my purposes but Iād prefer to use something like stripe as I have an existing relationship
My 2cents: You should make the process of adding a gateway by a template base class or something, to let people develop their own gateway implementationā¦
I think of crypto-currencies payments but I assume you wont develop yourself each 100s of crypto out there!
Agreed. Thatās the plan. This plugin is going through a rename as well as the creation of tests. So thereās a lot going on with it at the moment. But yes, as Iām adding these gateways Iām extracting out the calls and keeping the gateways interchangeable.
I have a question that might be dumb. Is it possible for a user to have multiple levels?
A customer has a plan like this :
basic users : can see some posts
level 1 : can ask questions in specific categories, very low membership price
level 2.1 : have access to a hidden category
level 2.2 : have access to another hidden category.
level 2.3 : have access to another hidden category
Could a user purchase level 2.1 then add the level 2.2 without losing the 2.1 access automatically? These levels are independants but can be cumulated
Ideally, Iād like to avoid creating a higher level with access to both categories. Having too much levels could create confusion (itās already confusing enough, but I do what Iām asked to do ^^)
Membership plugins usually donāt allow that kind of things (at least in the free versions), and I totally get why, so I wanted to ask if it was something that could be done with this plugin
This has been a long time coming but we have a LOT of new things implemented with this plugin.
The first one is the name. Weāve moved it from Discourse League to ProCourse Memberships to align with the rest of our plugins. (cc: @meglio) But that also means that the location of the plugin has moved underneath the ProCourse organization:
The next change involves payment gateways. Weāve implemented two new ones: PayPal and Stripe.
That means you now use Braintree, PayPal, or Stripe with this plugin. You can see the how-to documentation for all gateways here.
A big thanks to @outofthebox for sponsoring the work for the PayPal gateway.
And in the scheme of things, it only made sense that we set up a demo site for this under the ProCourse name. So we created demo.procourse.co to allow us to do just that. Right now it only has this memberships plugin installed, but over time weāll build out demos for all of our plugins on that site. (cc: @bartv)
Finally, (and since Iāve received this question a lot lately) there is NO license key restriction on this plugin. It is 100% open with no limitations. Enjoy!
Short answer: yes
Think of it this way, a membership level is tied to a user group. That means that if you wanted to set up 25 levels that all grant access to 25 different groups that are then tied to 25 different categories, you could do that. It all depends on how you handle the security settings of the categories and the groups you add to those security settings. This plugin simply grants access to the group via payment.
