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
http://www.domainName.com/amember.
<{$block.lang_login}><{$block.lang_lostpass}><{$block.lang_registernow}> Click Submit
Once you do this to login to your admin account for now on you must go directly to
http://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
here.');
Change to:
define('_US_NOTREGISTERED','Not Subscribed? Click
here.');
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.
