I have a few questions regarding the capability of CBSubs. I'm an experienced Joomla Developer, however, I am a complete CB neophyte. Before I buy, I would like to give you a general idea of what I'd like my CBSubs site to do, and you can tell me if it's possible:
I want to allow businesses in a particular industry (heating and air conditioning) to be able to advertise their business on the site. The level of visibility their business gets depends upon the level of subscription. For example:
--> Free Subscriber == (1) business name and (2) phone number
--> Plan A == (1) name, (2) number, (3) profile, (4) website
--> Plan B == (1) all of the above, (2) Better Business Bureau listing
In short, the PUBLIC won't be subscribing to my site; they'll simply be viewing it to search for a business that fits their needs. I want BUSINESSES to pay subscriptions that give their business additional levels of visibility to the public viewers.
I suppose I'm also assuming that CBSubs can hide or display a subscriber's information to the public depending upon the plan they've chosen?
Also, is it possible to allow a subscriber to pick and choose options they want? Or do I have to "hard code" levels of subscriptions containing more and more options?
All of what you're asking is very doable with the CBSubs protection plugin which can protect fields and/or tabs based on subscription.
You can create a parent plan with multiple child plans being non-exclusive that add new features. This would allow businesses to design their package.
