I have submitted a patch to allow variable amounts to be entered for back-office credit card memberships

http://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-7613

This largely takes care of the initial needs for it to work in a back-office situation - it would be better to be able to select a priceset but at least it makes all the workflows we deal with work.

Hi,

I have logged a JIRA for this so we can spec it out & plan to get it into core

http://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-7623

Although the provided module works there is a lot to maintain so it would be great if we can try to get this funded into Core.

I have updated one relevant patch (the one that gets rid of the error message when you try to edit a page with a priceset - not in the module) and attached it to the issue. Would be great if anyone is able to update any of the other patches & attach

Hi Eileen,

Thanks for moving this forward. I look forward to its implementation! I'd be glad to help with writing use cases and/or testing if needed.

Will you announce it here when it gets listed as a Make-It-Happen project?

Thanks,
 Michael

Flug,

I got this working with Joomla. More than happy to document the process but I think that we should be building this out in the wiki rather than here. Do you want to flesh out a page first (as the main developer) and I'll document the changes need to get a working Joomla 1.5 setup.

Many thanks, Henry

Henry,

Sorry for the long delay in responding--I've been sort of out of it.

Where do you think is the right/best place to put the documentation in the wiki?

Ummm. It's been a while. I can't remember if I made notes myself somewhere or if I've got to go back and look through this again. I remember having some fun doing it.

There were quite a few notes in the module I think.

However, would be good to get it into core as otherwise it could require love on a per upgrade basis.

I'll see what I can do but it'll take a little time. Got Government year end here in the UK right now...

Well, it needs either time or money so if there is any interest in seeding it financially we can launch an MIH & try to get it community funded

http://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-7623

I think the next round of MIH will be launched soon

I think it needs both. Happy to put the time in. I'm no coder and don't make a living out of this but am happy to contribute.

have created a wiki page here http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC40/Membership+Price+Sets

Went back thru what I did and am pretty sure that all that was required for Joomla was changing the module file into a Joomla hook file which only involved a few lines of code change.

I remember coming unstuck as well by trying to test this without uploading the templates and the rest of the PHP files which are done later in the instructions. So I've changed the install order a little to install all the files before trying it out.

I'm sure it would be possible to edit the page to add the Drupal install method as a simple Joomla/Drupal branch.

Would be interested to see if someone could review it to ensure that it is good to go.

Thanks to all who contributed here!  This looks very close to what my organization needs for allowing primary membership signup, multiple  optional section membership signups plus donations on one page!

I got this working on my development site (yeah!)  but have a couple of additional questions

optional section memberships would  be purchased as part of the price sets.  So if someone selects one, how can I  create a membership record for that membership type?   or at least create a smart group of current members?

for donations, I need to be able to track who much of the total contribution went to each group, so it would be usuful to have a different contribution type for each price field for creating reports.

How many hours would it take to add this functionality?

Hi mclyde, I too would like to see this come to fruition but am not a coder by profession so can't really answer. However am watching the thread with much interest.

My programming skills are really  limited to  C/fortran and google-ing, but if there is someone  who can add this functionality my organization can  help support the development to extend the usefulness of this important module!

If I am going to make a wish list, it would be great to have membership signup on event pages too so that just one credit card transaction is processed!

Might want to consider hiring a developer from http://civicrm.org/professional that you can work with

and then ensure the developer does it as a good configurable module with the changes you need and/or chats with other developers on IRC and submit patches to get this into trunk
