Mark Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 The subscriptions manager hasn't been forgotten about it - we recently had a big discussion about the direction to take it and as far as I am aware, Matt is working on it today. We are aware of the problems with the subscription manager (which are mainly related to third-parties updating their APIs) and so it's taking a little longer to fix those issues than say, Gallery, Blog and Downloads which just needed to be updated to the IPB3 code :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually you have them working on RC 1 as well on the company forums. hmmmm.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, Gallery, etc. required very little changes - just a code upgrade from the 2.3 code to the 3.0, and are now "done" - subscriptions manager requires a few more changes, and so is not yet :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graeme S. Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 I'm sure it's being worked on :). Cheers for the update Mark. Much appreciated. Look forward to seeing the sub manager back in action. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnysfight Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 RC2 installed and still no subscription manager ! I don't understand why this is not considered more important. Heaven forbid we are using the forum software to make money. If this feature is not restored soon, think of the thousands of boards that upgraded only to have to restore back to the previous version.

If this feature is not restored soon, think of the thousands of boards that upgraded only to have to restore back to the previous version. I agree there are some major bugs (confirmed bugs) with the current 2.3.6 subscription manager that have been totally ignored for at least several years. I think more than enough time has been given so hopefully when/if they do include it in 3.0.0 it will be working flawlessly as it should with the ample amount of time that has been given (several years).

ᴡᴅツ Posted June 12, 2009 Author Share Posted June 12, 2009 I think they said it will be released with 3.0 gold. Most likely those bugs would be fixed too. Subscription manager is going to be released as a community-project afterward so more developers can work on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Management Matt Posted June 12, 2009 Management Share Posted June 12, 2009 Josh has completed 95% of the subscriptions manager. I'm going to sort out the gateways (PayPal, etc) early next week. Keep an eye on our blog as we'll be asking for testers next week to help debug the subscriptions manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishsponge Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 so... any news on whether we can get the subscriptions manager running on 3.0.0 yet? I'm also desperate for this feature and having upgraded my live board, i'm now missing it! lol, admittedly that was my own fault, but still! If it is finished, how can i install it onto my v3.0.0 board? I still have three options for in the Admin CP, that look like they're left over from 2.3.6, but nowhere to actually configure the app, of course. Any news?? :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

envonge Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 For those of us who will not be updating to IPB 3 will there be a patch/fix of some kind to resolve the many bugs for the IPB 2.3 subscription manager? I'm mostly disappointed in IPB 3 and I'm sure many others are as well and will probably not be updating to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Management Matt Posted June 29, 2009 Management Share Posted June 29, 2009 I'll see what I can do about 2.3.6 but most of the changes are fairly invasive and we'd need to re-work a fair bit for 2.3.6 which may be more work than it is worth as we have a better working version in 3.0.0.

Frontpage Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 I honestly did not pay attention to the Subscription Manager issue on this forum when we went ahead with the upgrade to IPB 3.0. Now, we are left in a pickle as we have no way of tracking subscribers or gaining new subscriptions. :( If you rely on your Subscription Manager to monetize your forum, DO NOT upgrade to IPB 3.0 until they announce a release! JMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishsponge Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 excellent! can't wait for this to be released! :D this might have been answered before, but when it's installed, will it automatically pick up, the existing settings from 2.3.6 and sort itself out?

Management Matt Posted July 1, 2009 Management Share Posted July 1, 2009 When did you upgrade from 2.3.6 on your live board? Was it at RC 1 or later? There is a good reason for asking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishsponge Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 i upgraded straight from 2.3.6 to 3.0.0. I did notice that the upgrade process for 3.0.0 seemed to go through all the Beta versions and RC versions before finally getting the forum up to 3.0.0. Is that relevant?
