How to setup Subscription plan with option ?

hello

I have 2 unique Monthly and Yearly professional subscription plan and I would like add paid options for both of them. For example I would like let users choose between:

Monthly Plan

- With Option 1 = 100$

- With Option 2 = 180$

- With Option 3 = 240$

Is possible to do that without the need to setup plans for each of my options? My goal was to get a result like you do for your own Joomlapolis CBSubs Plan. That mean where users can chose using a select-box (or check box) the desired options such Licensed users, number of site and more.

thank

Is possible to do that without the need to setup plans for each of my options?

No, you'll need to create 3 child plans to have the 3 payment options. Simply set all 3 to be exclusive so they'll need to pick at least 1 payment option.

No such feature is available. That's a custom CBSubs integration for JP only and it's very very hardcoded so it's not useful for public use at this time. Ideally we'd like to refine it and make it a usable plugin for a later release.

Have you a date to when this could be available ? Maybe in few months ?

Since CBsubs became GPL, I suppose the best quick solution would be to get this from some third party developers. But unfortunately for what I know, nobody propose additional addon for Cbsubs..

No, unfortunately I do not, but I do have the source now and will be reviewing how to generalize it for public usage in the coming weeks/months.

Excellent...great news Kyle :woohoo:

I reflected about this feature and how to apply this in global manner to your existent plan architecture..and I must admit this can be a bit complex to handle. Depend of course of the needs of everybody because by introducing this feature, this open many more subscription scenario.

For example in my case, I would like disallow users who choose an option to change this option by themselves if they upgrade to another plan of if they keep the same plan but want just change option.

That mean I suppose is better to set a base price (without option) for the plan itself and propose options where the price (if any) will be added to the base price plan.

For example by admitting I have 2 plans configured like that:

Monthly Plan base price = 200$

- With Option 1 + 100$
- With Option 2 + 180$
- With Option 3 + 240$


Yearly Plan base price = 1000$

- With Option 1 + 100$
- With Option 2 + 180$
- With Option 3 + 240$

So if a user is a Monthly Plan subscriber with option 1 and decide later to change by taking option 3 OR to upgrade to Yearly Plan with option 2, I would like disallow this change. But if they want upgrade to Yearly Plan always with option 1 no problem...

My goal would be to allow user to upgrade to another plan if they want but to disallow to change the option...except if they ask me. In that case I would like be able to set for them the desired option...Is just matter for me to know they want change option because I need to make some task manually before the option is changed.

I suppose this specific usage could be done but this require to set always the same price for all options (who will be my case)... Now of course some users would prefer propose options having always different price...

A bit tricky... :pinch: :pinch:

I hope you will take in consideration this kind of things...

cheers

Well the idea is you supply an option name and an option price. Issue with the current implementation is we've no means for you to supply this outside of editing the plugin as we have the options and their prices hardcoded into an array.

The simply solution is to implement a database and a full backend to manage the options within your plans, which basically is my plan to do. I just don't know how long this will take or when I can begin as I am currently working on a CB Captcha rewrite (oops secret is out, lol) called CB AntiSpam with oodles of new spam protection features (I'm slowly rewriting all our older plugins; e.g. see new CB Privacy).

The initial release will be pretty simple so I wouldn't expect gobs of features beyond having multiple prices for a plan, but it'll improve with later releases of course.
