Charge For New Topics

[Adriano Faria]

This resource will provide a new way to monetize your board by charging a fee from members to start new topics. The topic created will remain hidden until the payment is processed.

Does it allow you to set an expiry date to hide the topic? I'd like this with options to set a visible for x days option by the admin.

[Adriano Faria]

No. Why would someone pay for a topic and then have it hidden later?

@Adriano Faria it would be cool if a member can set price manuallly.

This way a member makes a topic at support for anyone who can solve it will get paid it.

This is an admin decision and It’s done on ACP.

Yes i know but imagine that im a member and i want to pay someone to resolve me a problem for xxx$ money. i make the topic and telling im offering 100$ whoever solves it.

i decide from replies who will get it , and then admin pays them manually or do it via point system.

Seems to be working in terms of creating a paid topic. Cool!

I do get an error when clicking on the paid topic content tab from a member profile.

A probably a topic was deleted and its ID kept stored in the app table. It should remove it from there.

I’ll check it out.

It wasn't. Fixed. New version will check all existing IDs in the table and will remove those for non existing topics.

Should be out in a couple of days.

Thank you 👍
