Drupal Membership Site (please help)

[nikolaj]

Hi,

I want to make membership site where members pay X for 1 month or Y for 12 months.
Want some pages and some forums to be only for members.

When user pay for one month to be automatically changed to nonpaid user after that month.

My idea is to make promotion and give in first week free 6 months membership.

System have to automatically change user level to nonpaid user after that 6 months.


Can you help me to set this?



Thanks,
Nikola

CiviMember with the provided UpdateMemberships.php cron job can handle the 1 month and 12 month memberships with membership status changing to "Expired" if not renewed. Check the online documentation for details:

You'll need to use another module or write some code to handle the content access. I think folks have generally used Drupal Roles, which get updated based on membership status to do this. You could write a simple module using CiviCRM Hooks to do the role updates (or someone may have already done this).

Thanks.

If anybody have done this before with CiviMember, please post here or send me pm.
I'm willing to pay for it.

Are you saying that there is a way for Drupal Roles to be updated based on membership status - or is this the module that would need to be written?

For the life of me I can't figure out how to do this.

I did find a 4.7 module that does a synchronization but my attempts to update it are hopeless.

There could be some code / a module floating out there. However it's not on my radar screen. So, unless some other posts show up or you get some hits  via searching drupal.org and the web - it would need to be written. If you do so, please post back and consider adding info about it to the CiviCRM wiki etc.

You want this module to upgrade your Drupal roles based on CiviCRM memberships.

If you have funding for it to ported to Drupal 5 please contact me.

[alfred_nutile]

If not what type of funding do you need ie how much money?

Hmmm.... Can that PHP cron job also change the Drupal role of a user if their membership is expired? (e.g. to lose access to certain functions associated with a "paid membership" role?) That would be very cool and exactly what a non-profit I'm trying to help needs right now.

Currently no, but would be great for you to step up and make that contribution Seems like its been requested by quite a few folks in the past also

A good place to start would be to contact the original author Gordon Heydon.

Okay, thanks for the lead. I'll try to follow up with him.

It seems that he is busy...is anyone else familiar enough with Drupal and CiviCRM to get this module ready for v.5? We are a small non-profit but I can probably find a little bit of money if that's what it takes.

Peace,

Our organization, Web Access is an India based software development company and have a team of engineers as the India development center for CiviCRM. Hence our team has a good understanding of the CiviCRM solution and structure.

We also work in the Joomla / Drupal segment and actively provide development support for website / module development. If you could contact me on "claudian at webaccess dot co dot in" on your requirements, I could provide you with a quote on the same. 

We have a web page on the CiviCRM services that we offer - http://www.webaccess.co.in/htm/support_civicrm.htm .

Do have a look and let me know.

Has anyone sorted this out yet?

[Dave Greenberg]

Not as far as I know (checked the cvs repository referenced above and there's no recent activity on that module).
