    About Paid subscription..

    Hello,
    Is there any options for paid subscription?
    An option the subscribed user can write just 1 time not for one whole day.

    Thank you for your help as always.

    In the AdminCP go to Paid Subscriptions in the left navigation. You will need to setup a Gateway (recommend Paypal) and then you can create Paid Subscriptions. They are controlled by time, not how many posts a user creates.

      This software is 100% about paid subscriptions for a lot of us. You need to provide more options, including the basic request the OP requested. There are many Classifieds forums that monetize in unique ways. You should allow us that freedom. I can tell you that adding code to make a Paid Subscription option activate permission to create a single thread would be dead easy. Five minutes coding at the most. You should also not call it a subscription. You should call it a package. Subscription has regular repeat scheduling connotations that are nearly always irrelevant in Classifieds. Also, the main button for subscriptions that users see tells them they dont have any subscriptions, because some moron decided to call the monetized packages 'Paid Subscriptions' as if he'd invented the concept. Monetized forums is what facebook, gumtree, ebay, youtube and most sites everyone has heard of are. The entire spine of their monetization plan is definitely not to put tinme limits on things, unless its a paid ad, which specifically expires or is downgraded from premium to standard when the clearly shown timer has gone from green to orange, to red and then hits zero. News Flash. These are standard systems for monetizing forums. Look outside your window.

        You're welcome to create extensions to add this functionality if it only takes 5 minutes. If you want your suggestions added to the base software, you can suggest them in the Issue Tracker linked in the navigation bar above. If enough people agree and vote for the suggestions, we will consider adding them.
