I would like our users to buy their way in to our forum and other "forum-protected" pages.

Has anyone here tried to make this work?

I want users to go to our site, join, but not be activated until we register their PayPal-payment...

Hope for some help...

Thanks!

You could always place the users in a starter (newbie) group from where they don't have access to certain forums. Then once payment is received move the user to another group that does have access to the pay forums.

I think it's useful to have at least one unprotected section/subject in a forum to give potential users a feel for what they get by registering/paying

I'd hate to be the first guy to pay to use a forum - have to talk to myself to protect my investment.

Lead me not into temptation... I know the short cut, follow me.
