Hi,

I've used ezpublish to build www.thekerriparkeracademy.com

Her latest requirement (among other things) is to have an extension that tracks the sign up date for members and automatically sends out a reminder to renew their subscription at 11 months.

After 12 months the user account expires and they must renew their subscription to access the members area.

Has anyone done an extension that can do this or do I have to go to my Topman again?

thanks in advance :-)

Hello,

Take a look at the features provided by BC Simple Subscription [0]
I think they are a close match to your own needs.

Cheers,
Heath

This could be done with a dedicated datatype in user class that would register user object after account registration and then all the business logic written beside eZ Publish core features (dedicated model, cronjobs etc). It could also use an additional dedicated login handler to prevent the user from login in if expired. Subscription model of your choice could be applied in such case: just renewal confirmation, prepaid renewal etc. Definitely doable.

Cheers,
Piotrek
