THANKS BEERME!

I tried to hire a programmer to dev one for me but the cost was twice the amount this was. I have to say I edited a few lang files and then the login block but that was it.

PROS:
It works great! Simple to install. Great Support even their install is free!

Login works either amember OR XOOPS

MONEY BACK PROMISE FOR ONE YEAR!


HOW I DID IT:

Purcahsed amember and XOOPS plug in.
Installed amember as directed by install manual
Installed XOOPS plug in as directed by install manual

1. Go to Administration of the XOOPS Site, Prefs., User Info Settings & Setting Allow new user registration to No.

2. Go to Administration of the XOOPS Site, blocks, Login - Edit, Edit Template, then paste this in the template IF you have amember installed as www.domainName.com/amember.

<a href="<{$xoops_url}>/amember/member.php"><{$block.lang_login}></a>
<br /><br />
<a href="<{$xoops_url}>/user.php#lost"><{$block.lang_lostpass}></a>
<br /><br />
<a href="<{$xoops_url}>/amember/signup.php"><{$block.lang_registernow}></a>

Click Submit

Once you do this to login to your admin account for now on you must go directly tohttp://www.domainname.com/user.php/ OR click on the lost password link to take you there.

Now you need to edit the block lang file located Root\language\english\user.php
Find:
define('_US_NOTREGISTERED','Not registered? Click <a href=register.php>here</a>.');

Change to:
define('_US_NOTREGISTERED','Not Subscribed? Click <a href=/amember/signup.php>here</a>.');

Used News as my main module in home page where I placed a notice to tell users this is a subscrption site.

Took me about an hour but it is working and working well.

If you plan on using amember make sure you have something lined up to make your money back right away as to most 180 bucks is a bit much to be out of. As for us we this module has already paid for itself.

Tom,

amember is cheaper and works great. I am using it now on one of my sitehttp://www.soegamers.com. Easy to install and I turned over all my steps to the amember program and that is included now if you buy the XOOPS plug-in. These guys give free install of their product also. It does require Zend or something else but what I found out most hosting companies have one of the two install and never tell you. To settle that you can download their test script and it will tell you if you can use their pay system on your website.

Right now I have it working with paypal and I have not had one problem. Support is a bit slow as the time zone difference but I work very early in the morning so I can normally catch him. I live on the west coast of the USA.

wait, wait...still a good suggestion :) the .htaccess method just didn't work with my server configuration. had to go with the php.ini method!

for anyone else who has this problem with yr modules, and using .htaccess files returns an internal server error...do this:

open up notepad and paste this into a blank document:

magic_quotes_gpc = no

save it in yr agenda-x folder as php.ini and upload it into the module folders you are experiencing trouble with.

voila!

Thanks for the writeup.
FYI, the .htaccess line that works on most Apache servers is:

php_flag magic_quotes_gpc 0

If you only have one or a couple of modules that this will help you can place the .htaccess file at that directory level (i.e. /modules/agendax/.htaccess). This is safer and slightly better performing.
