I want to move forward with the upgrade to IPB 5.0 and I was wondering if the " subscription " application which is currently marked as " outdated " will still be functionional after the update.

The main problem which I have is that I have a lot of members who are on automatic renewal of their subscription. What shall I do with those members once this application is not working anymore ? Or is there a way to transfer the automatic subscription renewals to an up-to-date solution ?

Thanks for the help in forward :)

Where do you see that?

Invision Community’s payment app is called Commerce and it handles subscriptions and “product subscription“. None of them are going away. What is going away in Commerce is support tickets and physical products.

That app is merged into a Commerce app, an official app from the IPS do no worries.

I think he’s using the 3.x series, where the Subscription app was a standalone application.

This looks just like an old folder which is still on your file system.

Commerce is the application which handles this in V4

Correct and it will continue to work with IC5 after your upgrade!

This also means that you can just delete the subscriptions in the applications directory!
PRO TIP(Or lazy Daniel who does this almost daily:D ) : If you don't want to deal too much with backups and restoring them, rename the folder to "to-delete-11-2-2024_subscriptions" and wait few days to see if anything is broken on your site (it really shouldn't, but if something broke after the rename, just rename it back) and if not, then feel free to delete it!

That's a great tip - I'll check that out :)

Thanks
