Hey Jerry,

The simplest thing to do is to replace the whole block of php at the top of each membership page (login, password-reset, user-profile and user-signup pages) with the new block from the example files. If there are any custom changes, you'll need to re-integrate them.

Hope that helps,

Hi Robin,

On a different note.

I was looking for a way to redirect a cookbook subscriber to a renewal page if their subscription had expired, and found that you had already raised that question in the “error checking - logoff expired and disabled users” code section in this beta version of the membership plugin.

I think that a redirect on expiration function would be a very useful addition to the plugin.

Could it be implemented before the new version comes out of beta.

Thanks,

Jerry Kornbluth

Hi Jerry,

Once software is in beta it's generally 'feature-frozen'.

I like your idea though, I'll forward it along to Dave to look at for the next version.

Thanks,

Hi Jerry,

You could just add a redirect line to the top of each page (or to a common php header you load on all pages). Here's some (untested) code to point you in the right direction:

$isMembershipExpired = strtotime($CURRENT_USER['expiresDate']) <= time();
if ($isMembershipExpired) { redirectBrowserToURL("renew_now.php"); }


Just don't put that code on the page you redirect to or you'll get an infinite redirect loop! :)

Hope that helps!

Good evening Dave,

Well, I tried it out.

Great solution,

So simple.

Simple is good.

Thanks again,
