i think this plugin may work for something i would like to do on my website. i am working on a photoshop tutorial that is taking me a long time to put together. i’d like to charge people a small fee to see the tutorial.
my question is, do i have to let users register for user accounts on my wordpress installation before they will be able to pay and see the post? i currently don’t use the user registration component of my website for comments or anything.
thanks!

CS> Yes you have to let users to register on your blog. This is neaded as it is the only way to distinguish payed and unpayed site viewers. As I remember you have setting “Allow users to register” or something on your wordpress administration panel.

Hi there, your script is amazing but i have one issue:
I was using easy paypal and I did not really like, so i changed over to are paypal but i have over 200 paid members. How can i add them to Are Paypal database so that they have there access to my site that are already paid members.
Please help.
Thanks

Azeoeko,
If you have users paying for the whole blog you can enter “Blog price” and all the payed content pieces will contain paypal button to pay for every piece of hidden content.
How to migrate users?
check table “wp_Are_PayPal_users” user_id must be wordpress user if post_id is a wordpress post id for the whole blog post_id must be “-1″.
As you asked I’ve found that there are no user administration for users who purchased complete blog. I’ll add this to my task list.
Thank you.

Thank you so much ! This is what I did but its not allowing my old paypal subscribers to see my [are-paypal_login] hidden links:
This what I did:
INSERT INTO `wp_are_paypal_users` (`id`, `post_id`, `user_id`, `expire`, `purchase_date`) VALUES
(1, -1, 1, 30, ‘2008-12-13 13:22:26′),
(44, -1, 1, 30, ‘2008-10-05 01:39:04′),
(235, -1, 1, 30, ‘2008-11-25 21:15:04′),
(266, -1, 160, 30, ‘2008-12-14 13:59:21′);
This is just some of my paid members. Is there anything else I need to do ?
It would be great if you can add one more task within the admin panel under are paypal and that is to add an option to be able to add members manually.
Regards,
Azeko

try, 30, ‘2008-12-13 13:22:26′);
INSERT INTO `wp_are_paypal_users` (`id`, `post_id`, `user_id`, `expire`, `purchase_date`) VALUES
(NULL, -1,
id is autoincrement - just for internal reference it means nothing
post_id is a link to post from posts table for whole blog - use -1
user_id is a link to user from users table
expire - interval in days
purchase_date - time of purchase
I hope this helps. In your script user_id is set to 1 almost for every record it is something wrong.

Thank you so much with your help i was able to upload to my sql the correct data. This is how I did it:
INSERT INTO `wp_are_paypal_users` (`id`, `post_id`, `user_id`, `expire`, `purchase_date`) VALUES
(397,-1,280,30,’2008-12-13 10:13:58′),
(397,-1,482,30,’2008-12-09 10:13:58′);
Thanks again ! Great work on this plugin. Hopefully we can add an option to be able to add paid paypal members manually through your are paypal plugin from the admin.
Thanks

It is possible to add paid paypal members for individual posts not for the whole bloh yet. I am going to implement this. One more thing I am looking forward is a possibility to regulate subscription times for paid users, this is also not possible for now. But anyway this plugin is quite good now, having in mind even Microsofts strategy to have only 80% of the user needs in their products.

Hi there , just a question on your plugin. Let’s say I added all my members that paid with easy paypal plugin. This plugin did not have auto subscription. Now I add all my users through paypal_users through my sql and use tomorrows date, will this automatically charge them for the next 30 if I add them like this below ? please help.
INSERT INTO `wp_are_paypal_users` (`id`, `post_id`, `user_id`, `expire`, `purchase_date`) VALUES
(874, -1, 2452, 30, ‘2008-12-16 12:00:00′);
Please let me know, so I can plug & play.
Thanks

Hi I’ve received hundreds of emails for one transaction over multiple days. Is this normal? How do I stop it? Is it caught in a loop?
The subject of the emails look like:
IPN Duplicate txt
IPN subscr_payment
VERIFIED IPN
IPN web_accept
Please help! I love the plugin otherwise..
December 20th, 2008 at 5:30 pm
Jason,
These emails are for debug and for the future inspection. everytime paypal sends something to the ipn handler email is produced with everything what is posted by paypal. This is good for future investigation in case you have some user who claims he or she payed but cant see the content etc. i am sure something goes wrongg as you are receiving duplicate txn email. It can be that this must be investigated further. If you want you can forward me these emails togather with a copy of all your are_paypal mysql tables content I could take a look. It can be that there is a bug. I am thinking about adding administration control/feature to suppress these emails.

“I am thinking about adding administration control/feature to suppress these emails.”
That would be awesome !

Just installed the plug-in, everything works, except 1 thing: “Update options” on the configuration page. Known bug, or what’s the problem? All other pages’ buttons work; this page doesn’t.
Also, for IPN, my Paypal has several accounts attached to it, with various actions. So can I use the “notify url” option Paypal talk about? If so, can I just “do it”, or do I need to wait until a newer version of ArePaypal comes out, i.e. you having to do something for that to work?
January 1st, 2009 at 8:00 pm
Filip,
I dont know what is wrong with the main configuration page and the button “Update options”. Please provide more details.
The only possible way for IPN is url configured in paypal account.
I think it is a good idea to implement notification url parameter for every button I’ll check this possibility and I’ll try to implement this.
