Hi all,
A first post here from a seasoned vbulletinner..
I am considering buying vbCart to control and manage payments for membership to our site. To become a member a one-off registration fee must be received by our administrator.
However, we wish to make exceptions for people we invite to become member, such as subject matter experts or any person who certainly will enhance the value of content we publish by posting. In such events we will waive the entrance/registration fee.
Therefore, is it possible for such members to use a discount code which they can enter at point of registration/payment? Once entered, the registration process proceeds as normal but without financial transaction. In essence, this is not much different from entering a Referral Code at the standard vBulletin registration page.
To push the envelope one inch further, we would like to make the validity of the Discount Code time dependent. We would allow an 'invitee' to register - for free - within, say, ten days time. Once the ten days lapse, the validity of the Discount Code voids. A new Discount Code must then be reallocated and assigned.
Question is: Can this be done somehow? I am sure other sites would benefit from such feature as well. If any vBulletin Cart Mod should do it, it's this one. Looks, feels and works like a charm as far as I've seen it, so including this feature/possibility could possibly raise this product's attractiveness off-the-chart. For us, that is.
Waiting for a response!
Cheers.
