Just to double check...

Is there a condition built in that would enable us to hide certain paid subscriptions unless they're part of a specific usergroup??

Please say yes lol ...

Is there a condition built in that would enable us to hide certain paid subscriptions unless they're part of a specific usergroup??

Admin CP -> Styles & Templates -> Style Manager -> « » -> Paid Subscriptions Templates -> subscription_availablebit

Something like this:

[color=red]<if condition="CONDITION IN HERE">[/color]

<fieldset class="fieldset">
	<legend>$subscription[title]</legend>
	<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="$stylevar[formspacer]" border="0" width="100%">
	<tr>
		<td width="67%" valign="top" rowspan="2">
			<div style="margin-bottom:$stylevar[formspacer]px"><strong>$subscription[title]</strong></div>
			$subscription[description]
		</td>
		<td width="3%" rowspan="2" style="border-$stylevar[left]:1px solid $stylevar[tborder_bgcolor]">&nbsp;</td>
		<td width="30%" valign="top">
			$vbphrase[validity_period]:
			<strong>$subscription[length] $subscription[units]<if condition="$show['will_extend']"><strong class="highlight">*</strong></if></strong>
		</td>
	</tr>
	<tr>
		<td valign="bottom" nowrap="nowrap">
			$vbphrase[cost]:<br />
			<select name="currency[$subscription[subscriptionid]]" style="width:125px">$subscription[cost]</select>
			<input type="submit" class="button" name="subscriptionids[$subscriptionid]" value="$vbphrase[order]" style="font-weight:normal" />
		</td>
	</tr>
	</table>
</fieldset>

You can use variables like $subscription[title] and $bbuserinfo[usergroupid] in the condition to do what you want. The exact condition depends on exactly what you want to do.

Oh...

Okay, let me try and explain...

I have 6 Paid Subscriptions. 3 of them are for anyone, no problem with those 3. However, the remaining 3 is for a specific usergroup. I want to hide the remaining 3 unless they're part of the specific usergroup. I am actually not sure how the best way would be to go about doing this.

I've tried every condition I could think of.

[Jake Bunce]

Try this for the condition:

<if condition="in_array($subscription[subscriptionid], array([color=red]X,Y,Z[/color])) OR is_member_of($bbuserinfo, [color=red]W[/color])">

Where X,Y,Z is a comma separated list of subscriptionids that are available to everyone. And W is the usergroupid of the usergroup that has access to the 3 private subscriptions.

[House_of_Crazed]

Humm...

At least we're closer to something, lol...

I did that, and it hid all the subscriptions including the ones that is for anyone.

[Jake Bunce]

It should be working. What is the exact condition you are using? Make sure you are using the subscriptionids in your:

Admin CP -> Subscriptions -> Subscription Manager -> Edit

You will see this at the top of the page:

Subscription: name (id: X)

[House_of_Crazed]

LOL

My bad

After re-checking, it works 3/4th's...

Let me try and describe it...

User not in specific usergroup sees the first 3 subscriptions, no problem!

Now, if user is in the specific usergroup, they see all 6 subscriptions.

Is that intended? LOL, because I wanted the user in the specific usergroup to see only the 3 subscriptions that's available to them.

Yes, that was intended.

Here is a new condition based on the new criteria:

<if condition="(in_array($subscription[subscriptionid], array([color=red]X,Y,Z[/color])) AND !is_member_of($bbuserinfo, [color=red]W[/color])) OR (in_array($subscription[subscriptionid], array([color=red]A,B,C[/color])) AND is_member_of($bbuserinfo, [color=red]W[/color]))">

Where X,Y,Z is a comma separated list of subscriptionids that are available to everyone except group W. And W is the usergroupid of the usergroup that has access to the 3 private subscriptions. And A,B,C is a comma separated list of subscriptionids that are available to group W.

[House_of_Crazed]

YAY!!

That worked!!

Thank you tons!! Go and have an In-n-Out burger on yourself lol ...

More questions on this

How would I go as far as adding multiple usergroups to be able to see the special subscriptions set aside? Because the members of the special subscriptions apparently can't see the same subscriptions so they could renew their subscriptions. They're seeing the default set.

I've tried adding is_member_of OR conditions after this one

AND is_member_of($bbuserinfo, 13)

no go. So, maybe it's just me or whatever... I'm not sure if I used the correct code, lol.

Here's the code if you want the latest one.

 <if condition="(in_array($subscription[subscriptionid], array(2,3,4)) AND !is_member_of($bbuserinfo, 13)) OR (in_array($subscription[subscriptionid], array(5,6,7)) AND is_member_of($bbuserinfo, 13))">
<fieldset class="fieldset">
<legend>$subscription[title]</legend>
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="$stylevar[formspacer]" border="0" width="100%">
<tr>
<td width="67%" valign="top" rowspan="2">
<div style="margin-bottom:$stylevar[formspacer]px"><strong>$subscription[title]</strong></div>
$subscription[description]
</td>
<td width="3%" rowspan="2" style="border-$stylevar[left]:1px solid $stylevar[tborder_bgcolor]">&nbsp;</td>
<td width="30%" valign="top">
$vbphrase[validity_period]:
<strong>$subscription[length] $subscription[units]<if condition="$show['will_extend']"><strong class="highlight">*</strong></if></strong>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td valign="bottom" nowrap="nowrap">
$vbphrase[cost]:<br />
<select name="currency[$subscription[subscriptionid]]" style="width:125px">$subscription[cost]</select>
<input type="submit" class="button" name="subscriptionids[$subscriptionid]" value="$vbphrase[order]" style="font-weight:normal" />
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</fieldset>
</if>

How would I go as far as adding multiple usergroups to be able to see the special subscriptions set aside? Because the members of the special subscriptions apparently can't see the same subscriptions so they could renew their subscriptions. They're seeing the default set.

When a user purchases a special subscription, are they moved out of group 13? That would explain the problem.

If you want to allow multiple usergroupids to see the special subscriptions (and the others not), then try this condition (added the red code):

<if condition="(in_array($subscription[subscriptionid], array(2,3,4)) AND ![color=red]([/color]is_member_of($bbuserinfo, 13)[color=red] OR is_member_of($bbuserinfo, Q) OR is_member_of($bbuserinfo, R) OR is_member_of($bbuserinfo, S))[/color]) OR (in_array($subscription[subscriptionid], array(5,6,7)) AND [color=red]([/color]is_member_of($bbuserinfo, 13)[color=red] OR is_member_of($bbuserinfo, Q) OR is_member_of($bbuserinfo, R) OR is_member_of($bbuserinfo, S))[/color])">

Where Q, R, and S are the new usergroupids. Add or remove these blocks (within the containing (...)) for more or less usergroupids:

OR is_member_of($bbuserinfo, #)

That should work.

[Gr1m]

still working fine in 3.5.x

[Primal Rage]

how would i setup the condition of : IF usergroup = 12 Don't show paid subscriptions ?

I want to be able to block 2 specific usergroups from being able to purchase a subscription.
