XF 1.4 Free and Paid Membership

[william1872]

Hi Guys,

Is there any way to separate free and paid membership registrations? Will this require two registration pages?

As part of the free membership registration, we would like to limit access/set permissions to parts of the forum. What are the steps to limit access/set permissions for these users to different parts of the forum? Can these free membership registrations be set so they require moderator's approval to be accepted?

Is there a way to send private messages to the whole membership (free and paid members) at once?

If a free member wants to upgrade to a paid member, what are the steps for that(limited access to full access)?

Thanks for the help guys

You can have one registration, but create 2 groups, one for free memberships and one for paid. Then you can use the permission system to give members access to the forums based on their group.

Yes, you can send a mass private message to all groups by using Message Users option in your Admin Panel.

I am new to Xenforo and just purchased it for my membership site.

I need to control a paid membership, may allow non-pays to see forum post headers only.
I would like to use Stripe in addition to Paypal to take payments.
I use Getresponse and would like to update my email lists when people sign up.

Any recommendations?

Thanks, Eric
