The more I research XOOPS, the more I like what I see. I tried Joomla a while back and had difficulty from the start. XOOPS seems to be a superior CMS but I'm wondering if it can fill my client's need for a membership site.
Current website consists of a private member's only section and a public section. There are three types of members: Lifetime (no dues), regular and affiliate memberships (pay dues). All members get the same privileges except their member type shows on listings.
Member's area includes:
* A Business listing directory page that display other members and their home/company contact info in alphabetical order.
* A page listing all members' emails with member status, in alphabetical order.
* Membership renewal application form.
* Conference registration form.
* Forum.
* Member account tab
Public area includes:
* Business listing page for consumers to view, displaying similar info as in the member's only listing except no personal info displayed. Listings are sorted by locale/state, then by last name. Contact a member link via contact form.
* Member's benefits page and membership application form.
* Conference registration form.
Also needed:
* If a member updates his account info, the business listings would automatically be updated.
* If member does not renew, he would be automatically removed from the member/consumer business listings as well.
* When a member joins, membership is activated by Admin.
* Track of membership expirations, send renewal reminders, track and confirm conference registrations.
Credit card processing is handled by a third-party so once someone completes the membership application or conference registration, they are redirected to a different page/site.
Are these features available through XOOPS and its modules? The client is open to having custom work done if need be. Can anyone give me some advice?
Thanks,
Cuidiu
